Prairiepaw laughed and scooped up the snake in her mouth. "BLEH! It tastes so slimy! You killed it! You have to carry it!" She spat it out.
He sighed as it hit the ground. He rubbed his face with his paw a few times, cleaning it, then picked up the snake with no complaint. If she wanted to be a baby about it, she was welcome to, but he was going to tolerate it.
"Why so SERIOUS." She groaned. "I was just joking. Lemme hold the snake." She tugged it out of his jaws.
He let her take it, keeping his facial features neutral.
"This is supposed to be fun! An experiment!" She declared, before chucking the snake in the stream.
"Alright, glad that's settled." He said sarcastically before turning and heading back the way they came
"me too." Prairiepaw laughed.
He nodded. "Alright, let's go. Just remember to not say anyting about it, okay?"
“Uh- I mean, not to sound rude, but you guys just captured me, and now you’re just gonna lead me back into the forest? Seems like a bad idea.” Frosty said, trotting after her quickly. “Just saying,” he added.
She shrugged. "I could easily catch you if you tried to run. You're not used to roots that trip you at every paw-step. I grew up running through them and learning how to dodge them while keeping at a sprint."
