Just B R E A T H E [Semi-Lit Canine Roleplay]

[ossa di cervo]

D.A.K.O.T.A.

I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I'm close to something real.
I wanna find something I've wanted all along; Somewhere I belong.

Dakota's fur bristled the moment Gamble stepped in her path, but she kept herself from growling. She'd done much more talking then she liked in one day and she hoped she wouldn't have to do any more. The Chow's eyes narrowed as she listened to his words, her fur laying down on her shoulders and her curled tail, flicking slowly. While this dog tried to look like he wasn't intimidating, Dakota did all she could to see very intimidating. She pulled her chest up again, looking down on him with her fiery brown eyes.

"Why do ye do tha'? Ye just got done defendin' tha place and now ye come up to me with offers of a nights rest?" Dakota growled, obviously horribly confused with how these city dogs treated each other, "Even if I do come, I won't be gettin' much sleep with all them others 'round. Ye can understand why I don't trust yer lot much, aye?"

so leave your tears where they fall.

He looked at her, tilting his head. He wasn't really intimidated even though she was a much bigger dog then him, "Because now I've seen your true nature. Everyone puts on a mask out here to survive, but you backed down instead of fighting. It's a good quality to have. It shows you know when a fight's not worth the energy. I wouldn't have fought back anyway."

His gaze dropped to his paws before he looked back to check on Jess. She was walking up the steps of the shed, "I'll let you pass if you honestly don't want to stay, but I'm going to offer it to you once. I'm keeping watch tonight so the territory won't be taken, not that I'm worried." He realised he'd been rambling, so he met her gaze again. She had rich brown eyes. They mostly glowed with anger, but also had a soft touch of her good nature.

Every dog had a good nature, whether they wanted others to see it or not. The mask most dogs wear covered that up, though. He hoped if she chose to stay, she'd let the mask fall from her face and let the weight be lifted off her shoulders. Dogs were better off in small packs anyway.

Elena

Elena gave a smile back at Jess, as if the small corruption didn't happen at all. [Bi-Polar, no? XD] She jumped back with a small twitch, and she gave a very quick head bob. "You have more hot-dogs?" She asked, a little excited to actually get yummy food. The tricolored dog flicked her ears so they perked up straight, though they had an awkward flop. "So much food in so little time!" She gasped, with a very gleeful look. She turned to Gamble. "I didn't get to meet you very well, but... if your really wanting me to stay I will. I'm, Elena. Again, eh." She gasped, being to eccentric on her words. She was a young wild dog, surprisingly still owning her joyfulness and love.
[You can tell Elena is slightly Mentally Retarded. By her responses, they will be very peppy and OHMIGOSH HEY HI! like. xD]

Dakota sighed to herself. She hated this. She hated the talking and the social awkwardness she presented. She had simply wanted to come and see the water and green surrounding it, but she'd run into this. Dakota growled a little, "I thank ye fer yer 'ospitality, but I turn it down fer now. Now I know ye wouldn't have fought back, ye best keep yer distance, again, fer the time bein'. I need ta take a breath after all that back there, and I suppose ye should to after all that. Take yerself a wink 'o shut eye before watchin' out fer them friends o' yers."

Dakota began to pass Gamble with her head lowered again. She couldn't believe that all this had happened so quickly. She had just met this dog and yet he had her talking more then she usually ever talked in a month, maybe more. When she was a good few steps away from Gamble she turned and met his eyes, "They should be happy ta have someone like yerself around them. Yer a good dog as much as I hate to say it meself. I wish the three of ya luck with whatever it is ye be doin'." She bowed her head before continuing her walk away.

;~; I need another dog, I want to RP a very... lax dog. Im better at it. xD

2nd Picture

Character's Name- Keona [Key - oh - nah]
Age- No more than 5 years.

Personality- Keona is a extremely lax dog, she keeps simplicity in her light toned voice, and she has no issue keeping herself out of things. She has friends, but she is never loud or very hyper around them or anyone else. She used to have owners, but she lost them due to her over calmness. They kicked her out on the streets as hateful owners, and her lax has only brought bad luck. Keona is sarcastic in most of her sentences, yet she rarely speaks.
Gender- Female.
Appearance- Her feet are slightly more whiter than the rest of her body, and under her right eye she as a small dried scar that isn't very noticeable.
Display Colour [The colour your form will be displayed in on the members list] Uhm... Purple like Ocean blue..? XD
Anything Else?- Nope. :3 OH! She doesnt wear a collar. [Pic does though. =__=]

Standing as she met his eyes and bowed, he copied her moves, "I ain't much for gratitude, but thanks. Feel free to visit. I'll be here 24-7 with them." He watched her slowly walk away, not sure of what to do with himself. As he looked back, he had realised he cut off the new dog again. His pelt was lit up with golden speckles as the sun set.

Trotting towards the fae, he smiled, "Sorry again. My name is Gamble, as Jess already told you. You said your name was," he paused, trying to jog his memory, "Elena, right? I'm glad you decided to join us. Your welcome to eat as many hotdogs as needed, but tomorrow I'm goin' to have something else for dinner." He looked at the lake, his red nose getting caught in a sun spot.

Maybe we could take a dip. He walked to the edge, his tail bouncing along by his leg, the tip still slightly curved up. He let his front half walk into the lake until his ankles were submerged. As a duck honked and flew off into the air, the young brute began to go deeper, doggy paddling around the pond happily. A good swim would do him good.

{Beautiful dog. She sounds fun. I may add another one aswell. I'm not sure what his personality would be like, though. Probably the total oppisate of Gamble with a normal name. xD}

((Waaaaait. Was the cutting off toward Dakota again, or actually toward Elena? xD I can't tell if you're forgetting that Dakota hasn't said her name or with Elena. Haha. *Is a failyur*))

[amato]

[Have to go guys, Ill be back with a nice and long post<3]

[Teacup-old]

{Bye Sessko! No, he was talking to Dakota. He just walked back toward Elena because I'm guessing she said that before he ran after Dakota.}

Baron

Another airplane
Another sunny place
I’m lucky I know...

"Baron, my name's Baron," The shepherd answered, having somewhat calmed down after his outburst.
The word sounded strange and unfamiliar to him, almost foreign. It was a name that belonged to a different dog. A braver dog that didn't shut down at the sound of a car horn or a bright light. He didn't know exactly what "baron" meant, but he assumed it was something brave. It belonged to the patient and loyal livestock guard.
But it certainly didn't belong to him.
He stared at the female for a second, his mind blank. Introductions, or conversations for that matter, weren't really his thing. There wasn't much need to introduce yourself when everyone you've actually cared about has been with you your whole life. But he didn't want the dog to stop talking, she was one of the first of them to show him any kindness. Confused as he was, he wasn't oblivious to the odd stares and whispered comments of the dogs around him. "What's your name?" He asked, stopping to stare at his paws. But he didn't wait for an answer, "How long has you been out here? Does any of this ever...ever start making sense?"
He looked up again to the female, and then the others in the cave. Sure, they may have been just as new to the streets as he was, but to Baron, they might as well have been born there.

...But I just wanna to go home.
