Stay away from the pound! (Stray Dog RP) Semi-lit, Accepting

[IrkenGirl]

'That's a pity,' Burnt shuffled his paws, 'Sometimes, humans throw stuff at me, I think it's because they drink that same stuff.' He turned to Loka, 'Shouldn't it be a compliment?' he retorted, 'I would be proud if someone told me I appeared as if I was from the wild,' he laughed a bit, 'as if!'

[bearcups]

Loka gave the answer before Tolvia could reply, and he did this by standing up and innocently walking over to Burnt and sniffing his hindquarters. Then, he struck. Tolvia was too slow to react this time, for you could never tell when Loka would strike. His nature kicked in and he launched himself at Burnts shoulder-space. His jaws were built for tearing and locking on, rather than making quick slashes and releasing. "Burnt, im so sorry!" Tolvia barked in a sorrowfull tone as she sprinted the short distance to the dogs. Slamming into Loka's side, she rolled the akita over and in a flash she was standing over him, snarling. "Why? Why do you always do this?" Loka was pushing Tolvia with his legs, straining to get her off. "Im sorry, mum, im sorry!" But Tolvia was having none of it. She leaned down and bit Loka's muzzle, holding it shut. "You said that last time. You aren't sorry at all, are you?" Loka whimpered, his ears back. "I am, mum, I am, I won't do it ever again, I mean it this ti-- Mum!" Tolvia closed her jaws and left a gash on Loka's muzzle, making the akita yelp and whimper. She felt bad, but it needed to be done. "Burnt," She addressed the dog, a frown on her face. "You are in your right to dominate him, if you wish to." Then she went back and lay next to Godric. "He's a fighting dog." She explained. "Sometimes it kicks in, and he tries to kill other dogs. He's suceeded with two smaller dogs. But no more."

Godric had struggled to a sitting position when he saw the orange-and-white flash at the edge of his vision, and a second later had realized it was Loka. A growl rose in his throat, but when Tovia padded back over to him, he quieted. When Tovia explained, Godric glanced at the young akita, who was still lying on his back, then back to Tovia. "Is he safe to be around?" Godric asked. He wasn't afraid of Loka, but with his shoulder in this condition, he would have a hard time keeping the dog at bay should he decide to go at him. It was instinct, naturally, to go after the wakest enemy, after all.

[IrkenGirl]

Burnt stood up at the sudden attack from Loka, only to have the akita ripped off of him by Tolvia. He watched, alert, as Tolvia punished Loka. Eventually, Tolvia let go of him and went back to beside Godric. 'Are you sure?' Burnt questioned what Tolvia said.

[bearcups]

"No," Tolvia was saddened at the thought. "He isn't at all, really." Her tail wavered, and then she put her head on the floor and her ears drooped to the side. "I can't leave him by himself." She confessed. "He'll attack someone sooner or later, and they'll kill him. He can't fend for himself." Her body sagged and she fell into a relaxed position. "Yes, Burnt." She barked, raising her head. "Im sure."

Loka rolled onto his belly, fearing the outcome of what Burnt's concept of 'dominate' might be. His ears laid back but his shoulders fluffed and his teeth were bared.

Godric lay back down again with a muffled, "Mmf", then turned his golden eyes on Tovia. "I'll keep an eye on him, if you like," Godric offered. After all, Godric mused, she couldn't watch him all the time, could she? Godric's eyes flicked upward, gazing at the quickly darkening sky.

[IrkenGirl]

Burnt nodded at Tolvia, but he couldn't help but think that he wouldn't be very good at the whole dominance thing. Especially with someone like Loka. He sensed Loka's fear, and padded over to him, exchanging a locking glance. He smiled at Loka, hoping he would do the same.

[bearcups]

Tolvia's left ear flickered and her tail thumped the floor. "That would be lovely, thank you." A small smile appeared on the females features before it dissapeared again, and she looked up with Godric, wondering what the male was staring at. Her head lay on the floor once more and she looked at Loka. 'I hope you don't retaliate.' she thought sullenly.

Loka tilted his head at Burnt and watched the scruffy dog smile, was he being... friendly? Loka could not believe. He wagged his tail, the tip curling in the fashion that was the Akita breed and his ears lay back as he roll onto his back, paws in the air, totally submissive and wishing no more hurt upon his frame.

[IrkenGirl]

Burnt wagged his tail back, and settled down besides the akita. 'So,' he started, 'Was house life.... tough?' His eyes flickered at Tolvia, quickly shifting back to Loka. 'It sure sounded like it,' he paused for a minute, 'and put your paws down, boy!' he laughed.

[ragemonster]

Godric felt a pair of eyes on him and looked down to see Tovia watching him, but when he looked down again, he saw that she was looking at Loka. Godric yawned and laid his head on his paws, and listened to the sounds of the night.
