Sophie hunched slightly under the large male's gaze, and then shuffled closer to her brother, who took a more protective stance as it appeared Sophie was the more uncertain of the two. However, when X'yrin managed to push him over onto his back, and he began crying out for help, the two puppies looked at each other and did the sort of silent communication only twins--and those few exceptionally close people--could do. Another moment, and he'd called out something about a feast, which meant very little to them; they didn't know what a feast was. Thus, their choice was very easily made.
Boothe moved first, bounding forward to take a flying leap at Saluce's mostly-unprotected backside and beginning to growl and nip at him, his tail wagging a bit. If the male would let X'yrin do something like that to him, he didn't fear retaliation, much; but he was a very big male and needed to be brought down. At least, in Boothe's mind. Sophie, for her part, padded around to his head, which may have been more dangerous but was, in her mind, better than his butt, and sat down, staring at him intently. The others seemed to be doing their jobs particularly well--especially Boothe, who was going to town on him--and didn't really need any help from her.
She wanted to contribute a little, though, and so lifted a paw and patted at his face a bit, growling playfully. "You're big. And bad." She proclaimed, and paused to think for a minute, before grinning brightly. "You're the big bad wolf! We gossa stop you." She nodded seriously, and then pawed at his face some more, before flopping down and making to chew on one of his ears.
