Phoenix Maplewood Tree dancing malinois style

This guy was no Pepperoncini (Rannoch), who had let Nunataq win, or Merrick, who submitted (according to her) to her just because she was older, or the lazy lynx she had teased, or the lady, with whom she had romped around in the snow. Not even Indra. He did not give her any liberties and she sensed that, when he swiftly evaded her supposedly well-aimed attack. This fuelled her eagerness to retrieve the morsels even more, therefore she repeated her attack, despite his warning. It is in place to say that in no way her assault was ill-intentioned. Quite the contrary - it was a game and a practice at the same time.

And in the back of her mind she decided that, if this guy continued to impress her, maybe, just maybe he would make into the elite ranks of the Pepper Squad.
