She let his arms wrap around her and pull her tight, and in turn her arms entwined about his. She nodded gently, thinking about the timing of their wedding while he talked. “That's just fine. In fact, we had better get it done by then or else we'll have to put it off 'til spring. The snows bound to hit soon, and hard. There's already night flurries. Pretty soon our entire home will be painted with snow again! A white ceremony would be beautiful, I think, but we have to beat out any heavy storms. I don't want to sink into a snowdrift while we're trying to promise ourselves to each other or anything.” She gave him a very serious look that lasted all of two seconds until she nearly spit all over him with the laughter she tried to contain. The picture of them – or, mostly him – walking ceremoniously toward her and then disappearing into the snow was so crisp and hilarious that she couldn't hold back her giggles.
He finally said the other words she'd been waiting to hear, and the moment the invitation to eat was out there she grabbed a handful of food. But instead of snatching the roasted rodent her fingers plucked one of the flame grilled ears of corn. Like a true canine instead of nibbling the kernels as the humans used to do at barbeques and dinners, she gnawed unceremoniously on one end. Her face screwed up as she pulverized part of the cob and then chewed loudly. Whatever it was, it tasted great. Little did she know it would later heat her blood and give her... a few other inconvenient problems. Luckily for Shawchert Orin would never trace it back to the food.
After a mouthful of corn sated her curiosity for the vegetable she turned to the plate of meat and peeled a hunk from her strip. She turned with laughing eyes to Shawchert and held it out to him. “Open wide! Sometimes at ceremonies they do stuff like this. I don't really get it, but here!” She pushed the food at him, knowing full well that she was being obnoxious and laughing the whole time. He'd eat it, or by god he'd wear it!
