Nathaniel grinned as the man introduced himself as Hybrid. What a weird name! He'd never heard a name like that before! He thought that a hybrid was like a twisty thing. His mother had told him that - that a hybrid was like a cross between two different breeds. And if you crossed, like crossing your legs, you also had to twist! His puppyish mind made these connections without fault, and felt that they were perfectly and absolutely logical.
His eyes widened with each thing Hybrid mentioned - caves! Lakes! Springs! Beaches! He didn't know what half of those things were, but they sounded exciting! The puppy jumped up and squeaked with delight before Hybrid mentioned something else - a mansion - and asked if Nathaniel knew what it was.
"No, bu' they sound excitin'!" he squeaked with delight, a bit of his father's accent showing through. "Has you been t'ones?" he asked excitedly.
