She liked it when Terra laughed. It gave her cause to draw her brows together even more seriously, glowering at the other wolf in a comic inversion of her mirth. Inwardly, Caspa was amused too. The pig was ridiculous in appearance, with large wide eyes and a grinning face. Terra, despite the sounds of mockery was ever-tractable, readily attempting to follow Caspa's latest suggestion no matter how strange. It was this willingness that made her so easy to practice with. She was almost too compliant, though: Caspa didn't really feel like she knew best, just because she was a year older. She would have been happy to follow Terra's lead sometimes, and operate as equals for the most part. Of course, she didn't expect she could really command the coy-wolf, especially not in anything she didn't want to do, and that was how it should be.


Contrarily though, she wanted to scold her when the first excuse for a growl made itself heard. It sounded like a kitten trying to purr, Caspa thought. She had definitely uncovered a weak point. Terra had little-to-no aggression in her heart whatsoever. Or did she? The next moment, a real rolling rasp of a growl sounded in the slim woman's chest and made Caspa sit bolt upright. It was more frustrated than angry, but it was much better. "That was good," she encouraged. "Just remember that feeling and use it any time you want to act threatening." She picked up the pig now, studying it idly, turning it in her hands. "This is a strange thing. Almost strange enough to growl at without any imagination required. I wonder what we could use it for."
