but the wolf is always there, even when i can't see it
“Oh, don’t be fooled, I absolutely was.” He hums with a laugh. “Get all scraped up, go home, sit in front of the fire with my bandages and a book to nurse my wounds.” He says with an air of nostalgia, his metal hand rising to clasp at his chest as if it were a feeling he continued to try and chase. In a way, it was.
His arm remains wrapped around hers, the two of them nestled close as they continue to walk. “I heard…” He pauses with a hum of thought. “Squirrels with three eyes, six legged deer… All strange.” He comments offhandedly before he’s pausing as he hears a rustling in the leaves nearby. “I hope it does.” It’s quieter as he tilts his head in the direction of the sound he’s heard, a mischevious grin spreading across his face.
