[glow=white,1,400]I'LL RUN IN CIRCLES 'TILL I CRASH ! — , PALM GLADES, 8 MONTHS]｡+ﾟ.[/glow]
Drayden hadn't expected a whole ass speech, let alone being amped up like Winterhymns was doing. At the mention of Win's own brother losing his leg and still was 'the best damn knight in the kingdom', the snow leopard's eyes seemed to light up and when Win demanded that he go forth and be a brave knight, Drayden visibly got more confident. Maybe for only the time being, but it was still enough to get the cub to puff his chest out and wriggle his haunches, trying to shift to mimic Winterhymn's crouch better.
"Okay. I can do this." The cub mumbled to himself, focusing on the seagulls now and flattening his ears to try and hide better. He slowly crept forward, his heart pounding in his chest from his nervousness, before he pounced - he felt feathers under his paws and flesh for a brief moment, but he hadn't hooked his claws in nor bit down on his catch in time. Still, the cub didn't seem as dejected as before and looked over at Winterhymns with wide eyes and pricked ears, ignoring the screeching and fluttering of birds behind him. "I almost had one!"[glow=COLOR,1,400] ━ ✧*:･ﾟ[/glow]
