He followed the group to the stream with steady strides, listening to them talk while keeping his gaze away from Vespera. He didn't want to focus on the teen's attitude during such a happy reunion and was quick to go ahead and match pace with Valette.

He couldn't help that he had so much fur! He quickly trotted back to Valette and was quick to childishly and slyly rub his chin along her back in effort to dry it.
