walk all over you

[Valentine Valiant]

Sorry about the gross wait, this really slipped my post log for a while. :|

It was back to the river once again, but this time the weather didn't feel as bitterly cold as it had before. Or perhaps Valentine was just getting used to the seemingly permanent frost that managed to cling to his coat when he went out of the warmth and into the cold. The way that the ice tried to settle on him almost gave him a silvery sheen in the right light; one that generally went unnoticed by the young man. He had left the cover of Jaded Shadows for a nice stroll, taking advantage of a day that was not tainted by a howling gale or snow that persistently fell on and on for hours. Of course, it wasn't very often that he did choose to leave his own territory, so he didn't mingle much when it came to the faces of others from other packs. Perhaps that was why when he spied out the child on the rock with a very keen eye on the water, his attention was easily divided. “Hope you're not planning on taking a swim at this time of year,” he joked with a smile.
