Swiftcurrent Creek cowpoke

have been playing like @Indra III & @Gun are close but not currently present, mostly bc i didnt want to assume yalls presence for yet another group thread lol but u can jump in anytime! <3

colt, who had drawn his everyday ration of birchbark from their meager supplies, now tucked the strip into his jaw. "let me do the talkin'," he declared to sadey, who surely would not listen.
two brutes, two men. the gang members moved toward them. colt halted a good distance away, close enough for conversation but not close enough to strike.
he stopped, hip cocked and scarlet eyes missing nothing. "howdy." he spat a stream of birch juice and it arced into the air, splashing the edge of the streambank. 
"this yer patch, chief?" he asked, ignoring the foreign language and addressing the man with the white ring around his eye, not the one who had spoken. 
now that was deliberate.
