chickenhearted | the dreaded overflow

Wh-whaaaat?!!

[ !!!!! that is NOT how this works! He's going to run after him and try to tug at the towel, but at 5'1" and like a hundred pounds, he's not much of a force to reckon with. ]

You give me that towel this instant! Don't just run away!

[Ah. He's been stopped. At 6'5" and being pretty strong for his build, he can't really force Waver off. He'd feel bad if he broke the kid. So he tugs on the towel harder.]

It's my towel now! Wolves decide who gets to have a towel and who doesn't!

You're just making things up!

[ As if Waver wasn't also trying to do that earlier. Hypocrisy aside, he's furious and embarrassed and oh so exposed...! ]

Look, I'm sorry, just give me the towel already!

It's wolf law, pup.

[Wow, he's really getting into this. He's surprising even himself. He pretty much stands still aside from holding the towel out of reach as best he can, but eventually he caves and shoves it against Waver's chest.]

There. But remember, it's only because of my...kindness that I'm giving it back to you. You've got, uh, potential.

[What other vague, cryptic things might a wolfman say? He has no clue. But he does feel bad.]

I'm not a—

[ Oh, what's the use. He trails off and sighs, but blinks as the towel is shoved against him. He wastes no more time in grabbing it and wrapping it around himself again.

He doesn't know if he wants this "wolfman"'s praise or not at this point. Is it even praise? Oh well, he better not argue it or he'd snatch the towel away again. ]

... Thanks. [ He really means that!! Even though this whole thing has been silly! ]

[Heh. How many times has he had to say "I'm not a horse" to someone? And now Waver is protesting being called a pup! There's something deliciously funny about all of this to Dylas even though he knows he went way too far. The next time he sees Waver, he's going to have to apologize.

He could do it now, he supposes, but apologies are hard?]

Be careful around here. A wolf values his pride, and you should, too. So don't do anything lewd or stupid.

[He's nailing this wolfman thing. He's so sure of it.]

[ He resents being called a pup! It makes him sound tiny and weak. Which is exactly what he is. He'd be all ears if this so-called-wolfman wanted to apologize, but since he's not going to, he just has to hold his tongue and not get him all riled up again. His near-nakedness depends on it. That's serious business. ]

I wouldn't, anyway! And I'll be careful from now on.

[ At least, if he sees any people with animal features, he's going to quickly walk the other way. ]

Good. And you can return that towel to me the next time you see me, Pup.

[He never did get Waver's name?? But confident that he's defended himself against being called a horse in the future, he turns and leaves. He even gave sage advice. Maybe this didn't turn out so bad after all?

Aside from the bullying.]

It's Waver, not "Pup". And alright... I will.

[ If he ever sees this guy again, it will be too soon!!

He lets him go this time, standing there in his towel again to watch him go with an eyebrow raised.
When he can't see him anymore, he deflates a little and breathes out. Time to get the heck out of here himself before he keels over in embarrassment. ]
