Heron Lake Plateau your shadow weighs a ton

Much of what he saw was darkness, which made total sense considering the lack of an eye, but it was almost like he'd forgotten about that — the shadows undulated as the breeze pulled its way through the leaves overhead. There was a sound nearby, and it took him a moment to register it - or maybe he heard it and just didn't think to look around until the golden girl had closed much of the gap, but he didn't notice her until she was beside him. It should've surprised him but instead Screech's ears turned to catch her words, and he didn't make a sound.

He did not notice the other wolf lingering nearby, nor her attempted escape from potential drama — but Screech's nose twitched idly as it caught a scent, and the boy turned lazily in Fire's direction, seemingly interested all of a sudden but soundless all the same. Screech's mouth opened as if he was about to employ that under-used voice box, but all that came out was a tongue as he began to pant.
