X'yrin continued to help them, and though her attacks seemed to help far more than the small puppies' did on their own, they soon 'got' the male. Sophie paused in gnawing on his ear, lifting her head to blink curiously at him as he played dead before padding her way up to his head to bat at his face again. When it appeared they really had gotten him, she let out a yip down toward her brother, who barked back happily, bounding along the large wolf's side to tackle his little sister. Sophie let out a little yelp, and kicked at him with her hind legs, pushing into the softness of his underbelly. They wrestled for a moment, but Boothe came out the clear winner, and then the pups hopped away from each other.
Sophie shook herself off, panting slightly and then snapped her teeth playfully at her brother, her tail wagging. They'd done it! Well, more like X'yrin had done it, really, but still! They'd helped! Rather pleased with herself and the world in general, Sophie padded around in a little circle, shaking herself off before nosing her brother gently and moving to gather her new pelt up in her maw. Boothe did the same, and they wiggled under them, balancing the furs precariously on their backs and heads, and finally the two were left covered once more. The twins growled at each other, and then began an odd little circling dance, as though they were about to wrestle again.
The adults were mostly ignored for the moment in favor of continuing the game, deciding who the winner among them was; Boothe would no doubt come out on top, but for once, Sophie was determined to get her share in, too.
