Uzushi rolled and rolled and rolled, legs flailing in the air as he tried to scratch his back on the ground, depserate to rid himself of the incessant itching. He had the sneaking suspicion that he'd managed to capture the fleas, but until he saw one he wouldn't jump to conclusions.

"Kalpana! Make it stoooop." He whined, moving sideways so that he was on his belly. "Itchyyy~!"

Go take a bath, that might help.

"Mrrf." With a small huff the juvenile got to his paws and shook himself, a cloud of dust rising up into the air and irritating his nose enough so that he sneezed.


Seaki
Koin was following the wind, like he always. He saw a small cloud of dust a bit of a ways off. He diecided to see what it was, upon his curious ways. "Hmmm..." he somewhat hummed as he got closer. He saw a juvenile wild dog. He curiously got closer to him.


Kimaria

A friend draws near.

"Mrr-wha?" Uzushi raised his head and gazed around him, his bright green eyes searchign the area. "Hulloooo?" He was rather noisy, rather talkative and extremely friendly. He had no need to fear because he had never met anything worth fearing.

So for now he padded slowly forward and continued until his eyes set upon the shape of an elder wild dog.

"Wow you're really big!" Well, apparently that was an adequate enough greeting...


Seaki
Koin looked down at the smalled wild dog. "Hi..." he said, though a little off and more of a question. He never really hung around other wild dogs. He perfered to be alone... or with someone less.... annoyong. Eh. "And you're really small..." he sdaid.


Kimaria
"That's because I'm a baby doggy! Silly!" He seemed not to notice the off-tone that the other spoke in and ignored any warnings the voice in his head might have given him.

"Do you live around here? I'm exploring! I always explore, but I've never seen you before! You have nice fur!" He moved forward a few steps and reached up to sniff lightly at the other's chest.

With a high-pitched giggle the pup wagged his tail furiously and with a small yip and a bounce he spoke again. "I'm Uzushi'bueta, but you can shorten it if you want! I don't mind~!"


Seaki

"I don't live anywhere. I'm traveling," he said, looking at the pup and his never ending talking. He backed up lightly as the smaller pup sniffed his chest.

"I'm Koin..." he said. "Just Koin... I'll call you Uzu, if you don't mind..." he said.


Kimaria
"Hello Koin! That's a nice name, it makes my tongue feel funny when I say it. Koin, Koin, Koin!" He ended his chant abruptly at the shortened nickname and smiled widely.

"Uzu sounds good, yes indeed! When I'm growed up I'm gonna be a traveller too, I have a quest I'm going to go on, but right now I gotta stay with pap and the rest of the pack." He nodded matter-of-factly. "Have you seen lots of good places? Is the world as big as it looks or is it very small?"

He was rather....fond of stories.


Seaki
"Eh..." Koin blinked a bit at the hyper pup. He was an odd one all right.

"I with you luck with your quest," he said with a light nod. "But. They world is big. Don't get lost..." he then considered the pups other question. "Eh. There is a lot of beautiful places."


Kimaria

Nodding vigorously, Uzushi bounced backwards a little and tipped his ears forward, grinning like an idiot. "Ooooo~ I hope I get to see the world sometime! Especially the pretty places with all the flowers and the rainbows.

His eyes glittered as he spoke.

"Where are you headed now? Someplace magical?"


Seaki
"Rainbows and Flowers?" he asked, like the kid was joking a bit, but changed his tone. "You can search for a place like that," he said with a slight nod. He didn't want to destroy the kids hope.

"Magical?" he then asked. "If the wind blows me in the right direction, I guess I am..." he said.


Kimaria
"Whee! I will search for it and I'll find it, just you wait and seeee!" With a sharp nod the juvenile made to skip in small circles, humming cheerfully to himself as he did so.

"Does the wind talk to you?" He asked finally, pausing in his circling only due to the dizziness that had began to muddle his brain.


Seaki
"Alright. I'll see it when you find it..." he said with a bit of a nod, watching the younger pup skipping in circles, humming happily.

"The wind... talks sometimes. It can be stubborn, too..." he said.


Kimaria
The young wild dog looked suddenly awestruck, falling silent as he stared up at the elder dog in amazement. Oh, the wind spoke! It said things! His head whipped around as a breeze ruffled through his fur and though he felt it he heard no voice.

"Can anyone hear the wind? Or is it only for special doggies?" He asked, the beginnings of a pout forming on his maw. "I'd love to hear it!"

But you have me. Kalpana reminded gently in the back of his mind.


Seaki
Koin almost laughed. Of course the wind speaks. The breeze ruffled Koins fur as well, as he listened to the soft whistling voice of the wind.

"Oh course anyone can here the wind... just some aren't patient enough to listen. Other just choose not too. Pity though. Such a sweet song the wond has..." he said with a light tilt of his head.


Kimaria
"I have patience, I'll learn to listen! I want to hear what the wind has to say, I do, I doooo!" He bounced again and then sat down almost restlessly, eyes darting around as if trying to decide whether to stay put or to run around some more.

Then in the distance the barks of his pack mates could be heard and with a small sigh he got to his paws and backed up a little. "I gotta go now Koin, but I hope we'll meet again someday! Was nice talking to you!" And with that the little pup scarpered through the grass and out of sight.


Seaki

Koin Nodded a goodbye and started after the wind again, starting another adventure. Maybe he'd meet the talktive pup when he was older. But then again, who knows.
