"You would be," Tal scoffed at Sah's proud declaration of weirdness, but he was grinning as he as he said it. If Sah were normal, he wouldn't be nearly as much fun to tease, after all! He snuck another amused and curious look at Pad and his equally weird antics with burying things. "He'll probably grow out of it. ...Maybe," he added, remembering a few adult dogs who'd had strange puppy-hobbies who hadn't grown out of them.
Heh. Sah was in for a ride with this pup, and Tal couldn't be more pleased about it.
He showed that pleasure by starting off the game that Pad had earned, and the hunter would find that the courier was a bit faster than he'd been the last time they'd wrestled. It didn't take long for Boreal and Lilly to get in on the action, confusing things further with a blithe disregard for rules and goals beyond 'pounce' and 'lick' and 'run away after.' No one was safe from their mischief; not human nor pup - and no one at all was safe from the sharp, ankle-high nips of small, excited teeth from a certain young wolfling - but all good things had to end.
A puppy's endurance had its limits, and once Pad was well and truly tuckered out and ready for a nap the men parted with a few last quips and lighter steps, their companions leading them safely home again.
