For about half a minute, Gabriel was terribly worried that his Hydra was going to do what he promised and leave him stranded, like a fool, on the ice. Wouldn’t that be fantastic—Inferni’s great and mighty leader stuck in the middle of a pond like an idiot. The very thought made his chest deflate, and his ears swivel back as doubt began to creep in. Luckily, he did not have to wait and worry long. Hybrid came tromping back up from the snow with a bush in his mouth and tossed it unceremoniously onto the ice. A rather peculiar look crossed the Aquila’s face, wondering just what the hell Hybrid expected him to do with the bush. Of course, once it was explained, he found the idea worth trying.
Lifting one paw almost daintily, Gabriel placed it back onto the bush and found he did not slip as much as before. It was not enough to get him to the snow, but it was better then what he expected. Slowly, his expectations rose, showing in his body as his tail and ears returned to a much higher position. “Yeah, this looks like it should work,” he confirmed, and waited expectantly for the smaller man to finish with his task. Then he could smash his face in.
