The blonde was collecting shells in the soft snow along the bank of the river. The dark waters churn around the stones noisily but Dogteeth can hear the ferns and shrubs rustle from the other side of the river. He looks up with half-hooded eyes to offer a little smile to whatever Skyclanner was traversing the border. He doubletakes though as he spots a familiar coat-
" oh-.. HEY!… I know that Skyclanner… he’s nice " Dogteeth mutters to himself but calls out to the grey feline with his worn purple collar.
" Grapejuice! " he calls out with a smile, snatching up one of his shells and slipping into the tug of the icy water. It’s a brutal sort of cold, and he wades until his paws no longer reach the bottom. He swims with ease, paddling with expertly fanned paws webbed blonde toes stretching out until he stands in the shallows of Skyclan’s bank. He doesn’t leave the waters, that would be trespassing. He does reach his neck out to plop the shiny white shell on the bank though, it glistens like a sheen of rainbow.
" so I asked the fish for ya- they said it’s cold as hell " he jokes in reference to their gathering conversation. " did you do the collar trick on your twoleg? " Dogteeth laughs softly and nervously, hoping the other didn’t mind the onorthodox greeting.
