Blacktail Deer Plateau Don't let go of this moment in time

"Oss," he said when she smiled at him and told him to be on his way. "You don't think I'd just leave you hanging like that, do you? Really? Really?" He gave her a serious look, then laughed a moment later and batted at her silvered shoulder with a large black paw. "I'm not just gonna frolic off into the sunset and leave you standing here in the middle of the forest. Come on, I'll take you back to Crete."

Swiping his tongue up and over the entirety of Osprey's face, Peregrine pranced out of reach before she could chide him for his slobbery smooch. He then waved his tail at her and broke into an easy trot, leading her back toward their brother. Crete was mute, of course, but the Alpha was fully confident that he'd show Osprey around without a problem.
