Moonspear hello, 911, what's your emergency

Charon hadn't actually expected Speedy to listen to his 'command'; he expected her to throw him a retort or just laugh at him and keep running, so admittedly when she played along and did stop he was surprised, though positively so. As she slid down into the snow in a play boy Charon slowed down his pace, coming to a halt in a pounce on the spot -- something that could only be described as a joyful jump in place.

For a moment he could be only Charon and not all the difficult things that clung to that, and just have some fun. His tail waved in a rare display of unbridled fun as Charon pawed at Speedy's lowered face. With a woof of excitement he then pounced at her, intending to bowl her over into the snow by putting his front legs on her right shoulder.
