Donny stopped in his tracks when he heard Inle. His face scrunged up and contorted, before he let out a sigh of resignation. Why were these accursed big people always foiling his plans!?
He trudged outside, where Frey awaited him. The pegasi bent it's head down and Donny climbed up onto his steed, making himself comfortable before mumbling something to him. Frey lifted his head and gave Inle a cocky glance, before snorting indignantly and trotting back down the road that would lead them to a return to Dragonfly's house. Donny felt a hopeful assurance that his absence had not been noticed, though he tried to convince himself that he didn't care either way.
He just hoped mommy and squishee were home when he got there.
Off they trotted, leaving his temporary freedom behind for the time being, with his book of useless words and pretty pictures still held in his hand.
