Redhawk Caldera burning down the house

The little creature was diabolical. It stuck like glue to her paw and refused to budge - and Dove tried, she really tried, to pry the girl loose. At some point she tried a bit too hard though, and Peregrine's voice caught in her ears. Her ears fell back against her head as she relented, easing off on the whole 'saving her own toes' shtick so that Perry could intervene. She cast him an apologetic glance - absolutely sincere, even thankful - before hearing the girl's ringing, shrieking voice. It was like sounding the bell for a cage match; Dove looked steely-eyed at the pudgy child as she approached, and was quick to pull back from her reach. Dove settled in to a cat-like laying pose with her paws hidden beneath her fluffy body. Hah. Try to get me now, sucker!
