Faolan sat on a bench close to the edge of the carnival grounds' boundary, watching birds feeding on bits of bread scattered about. Tucked in his jacket was a very content and snoozing Ziazan. Ellandra had stayed in the vardo to work on some writings. This all left Faolan some time to himself to do some reflection . . . and also drinking. He smiled at that, lifting a bottle of beer to his lips and taking a sip.

There was something soothing about a morning jog in Eli's mind, the hunter found that even when he couldn't be out in the wastelands stalking prey and making a living that keeping active was good for keeping him focused. Early morning runs with Kell were a good way for him to start the day.
Ok so sometimes he had no interest in getting out of bed in the mornings when he didn't have to. Though when he did get up, manage to get shoes on and out of the door the auburn haired man swiftly found that he felt better than if he'd just lazed about and stayed in all day.
Today however was a day when he'd lain in bed until he'd had to get up and take Kell out, the both of them needing to stay in shape.
Kell loped beside Eli, the dark furred hunting dog enjoying his afternoon exercise and a chance to mark new territory becuase truly if he was there it belonged to him right?
Suddenly a strange scent caught the dog's nose and he was off like a shot, paws pounding the pavement as he searched for his quarry. The scent hound wasn't sure what it smelled just that it was strange like before and he needed to find it, the trail leading him towards a seated man.
Eli cursed under his breath and chased after his dog, what the hell kept getting into him lately?

Faolan turned to look as the dog bounded towards him, bottle still to his lips. Why was there a dog running at him? Did it want his beer? Where had it come from? Then he noticed the man chasing the dog. Did that guy want beer, too? Fao wasn't sure he had enough to go around, actually.
As the dog approached, he held the bottle up, one hand down to keep it from nosing at him. "Ay, ay . . . no need for that, doggie."
From within the jacket, Zia was rudely awakened by being poked. Why would that idiot it lived with poke it like that? Peering up out of the jacket, it glared at Faolan . . . before getting a nose pressed against it. Squeaking, Zia ducked back into the jacket.

Kell got a noseful of his quarry's scent and pulled back to throw his head up and let out an earsplitting howl. there was no need for aggression and snarling, the thing was trapped.. inside the human? Either way Kell had found it and was letting his master know.
Eli cursed and began to rethink maybe putting Kell on a leash someday to keep this from happening over and over again. Hell as he reached the startled stranger and ordered Kell to heel he began to think even a collar might be a good idea. " My apologies" he panted slightly out of breath from the unexpected need to sprint after Kell
Too well trained to break a command Kell back awed away from the horned human and the thing hiding inside him , moving to sit at Eli's feet.

"Huh?" was Fao's first response, rubbing at his aching ears. His hearing was too sensitive truly for much more of the dog's howling, so he hoped it would be silent now. He looked down between his feet and made a noise of disappointment at the spilled beer. "Aww, man."
Glancing back up at the strange man, he shrugged. "It's okay, I guess. So long as the dog doesn't do the howling again, we're good." From inside the jacket, Zia squeaked again and Faolan slapped a hand down against it. "Indegestion."
"Make big scary thing go away," Zia whined from its hiding place, still feeling a little traumatized from the last encounter with a strange person. Faolan smacked it again, giving a nervous chuckled.
"Talking indegestion."

Eli raised an eyebrow , talking indigestion, who did this guy thing he was fooling? " Right" he looked down briefly at the spilled beer that was slowly soaking into the ground It wasn't as if he'd man the man drop a whole case or anything but Eli still felt bad about that, even if the guy was being a bit sketchy " Can I pay you back for that" eh offered tilting his head to motion towards the lost .
Kell showed no signs of intending to howl again anytime soon, though his eyes were still focused on the beer drinking man and his talking coat. The dog's tail thumped happily against the ground and there was no vicious intent in the creatures soft brown eyes.

Faolan grinned. "Nah, I'll get more from the clowns later." He looked down at the dog, raising an eyebrow. "Your dog's kinda eepin' me out here. Why's it staring like that? I'm pretty sure I don't have any dog treats and I promised the little woman I'd stop wearing the pot roast scented cologne."

Eli laughed at that, couldn't help it really this man was rather amusing if he was honest with himself. " Your um, indigestion has caught his attention, Kell's a hunting dog. "

Faolan laid a hand protectively over his belly and the Essentic hiding under his jacket. "What sort of things does he hunt?" The humor was gone from his face, eyes narrowing a bit at the dog.

Eli rested his left hand on the top of Kell's head " He hunts everything, he'll be attacking nothing," The man promised. His own eyes narrowed though at he looked at the man who's name he still didn't know " Though I am curious to know what caught his attention so suddenly."

"No idea," Faolan lied through his best charming grin. "He's a dog. They're given to chasing the wind and barking at the moon. Who knows what got in his mind." But he didn't move his hand from his stomach. Nope.

Eli might have believed the stranger if this had been any other dog but Kell didn't chase nothing. Certainly he'd been a bit unpredictable lately but not in any way that would make the man doubt the scent hound's nose in the slightest and really anything that held his attention like this was worth investigating, particularly when it appeared to talk.
Kell was growing rapidly frustrated becuase he could smell, something and couldn't see it. He loud out a low loud bark as if hoping to scare whatever was hiding inside the man's clothes into moving.

Zia squealed loudly from inside Faolan's jacket, making the young man hug his arms around his stomach protectively. He turned away from the dog, backing up till he hit the bench and sat down hard on it. "Get the dog away. You're scaring it." He got a foot up on the bench, using his leg to try and shield himself and Zia from the barking dog.

" Scaring what is the question" Eli growled, ok so he had no authority to harass the other like this but well damnit there was no need for the horned man to hide whatever he had unless it was illegal. Pixie infant? Some sort of exotic creature still considered endangered.
Though he continued to growl, Kell never moved from where he'd been told to heel, never showed a single sign of actually planning to attack the nervous man and whatever he was protecting.
