Spencer:: -leaning against a tree as he rummages through his pockets. Pulls out a piece of a stick of gum and places it in his mouth.- Mm -puts the rest back in his pocket for later-

Anansi: -is wrestling with a discarded popcan, digging her claws into it and flipping around when she smells something... Was that mint gum? She perks her head up and looks around, gaze resting on a hooded cat near the treeline. With a grin, she quickly pads over, hands in her pockets as she looks at him, up and down- Hiya, pal!

Spencer:: -Eyes flick over to an approaching girl. When she greets him as though they were already friends he pulls back a little bit, unsure of her.- Hey... -Doesn't exactly know how to take this random girl, and chews his gum quietly as he watches her, not knowing what she was going to do next.-

Anansi: -grins at him, eyes closing in almost laughter at his uncertainty, then sticks a hand out, complete with dayglo orange chipped nails- I'm Anansi. If I may be so bold... How'd you get your collar off, pal?

Spencer:: -stares at her hand for a moment, examining the nails curiously before reaching out and gripping it.- Spencer. -He gave his name quickly. He was straight and to the point with strangers. When she asked about his collar he reached up and lightly scratched at the scar.- Got it caught on a fence. Eventually I pulled hard enough and it snapped off.

Anansi: -ears flick back as he touches his scar and she stares -- of course, this is rude, but she's a little oblivious about it- Huh... Well do you recommend getting it caught on a fence? -tugs at her own ribbon, though the thought of completely destroying it was saddening to her. With luck, she could use it in her wardrobe-

Spencer:: -tilts his head and gives a small amused smile for the first time since they've met.- Nah, I wouldn't recommend it. Here, let me have a look. -He relaxed a bit and walked behind her, observing the bow.- It's only one by knot. Mind if I try to untie it?

Anansi: -grins at him and stands still, hands stuffed back in the pockets of her hoodie as he inspected it. A knot? No wonder she couldn't get it off herself... She failed at knots! Gives a small nod and a giggle- I'd like that...

Spencer:: -He didn't want to give her hopes up in case he couldn't untie the thing from her neck.- I can't make any promises... -he began to work on the knot, having a lot of patience. After a good thirty minutes of working at this knot around her neck he pulled it loose and the ribbon fell from her neck.- There you go.

Anansi: -nods sharply- It's okay. Just give it a whirl! -but she was excited. She'd been trying to get it off for over two weeks now. It snagged on everything...and besides! she couldn't wait to see the scar underneath it... She stays still while Spencer works, humming a little to herself, and she turns only as she feels the ribbon fall. Her hand reaches up to catch it, gently carressing the red fabric, her blue eyes wide- Thank you... -folds the ribbon and puts it in her pocket, then touches her throat- I'm...I'm a Free collar now... Does it look good? -tilts her head back-

Spencer:: -smiles weakly at her reaction to finally being free of that dang collar. It must have been horrible to have that thing on all the time. When the girl tilted her head back and asked her it looked he smirked a little brighter and nodded.- It looks fine. -He certainly was glad he could have helped her.-

Anansi: -shoots him a smirk of her own, tail wiggling like a dog's- Good! -she claps her hands together happily, bouncing in place- What shall we do next, friend? -her eyes zero in on the glowy sticks in his pocket- Ooh.. What do those do? -points at them-

Spencer:: -tilts his head at the whole friend thing. They weren't friends yet. Acquaintances but not friends. He hardly knew this girl.- Um..I don't know... -he didn't really plan on doing anything with this girl really, but if she wanted to hang out a bit he could spare some time.- What? - he questioned looking down at his pocket to see his glow stick drumsticks. He smiled as he pulled them out.- Oh, these? They're drumsticks... I use them to make beats. You know, play music. -He showed them to her, keeping them firm in his grasp. He wouldn't want her stealing them or anything.-

Anansi: -she is the type of cat to meet someone once and befriend them forever -- in her mind, they were friends...even if Spencer didn't like that!- Yes, those! -eyes glitter as she leans in- They glooooow... -they remind her of Kayden's glowsticks...and she wonders how her friend is doing and if she'll ever see him again- That's so cool. Are you a drummer, then?

Spencer:: -chuckles lightly at her fascination with how they glow.- I like that too. -that's the reason he picked them out after all. That and they were blue, his favorite color.- Mhm, I am. I don't have a drum set yet... but, I practice on anything really. -he took a step closer to the tree and started to tear it up with a crazy quick beat, banging his drumsticks on the bark.-

Anansi: -grins at him, watching him begin to play a beat on the tree, her hands clapping together- You're good. I've never met a drummer before -giggles- I can't carry a beat...or a tune. I like to play guitar, though. Just a little, I'm not great at it. Not yet. -beams at him, then glances up- I'd better go. Until next time, drummer-boy -shoots him and grin and dances off-

Spencer:: -grins more comfortably at the girl and shrugs- Hey, keep it up and you'll be a legend in no time. -As she decides to take her leave he feels somewhat of a relief.- Ah, okay. See you later Anansi. -waves to her and keeps playing around with his drumsticks.-
