Still waters run deep



I hope you don't mind the little game I thought up. It's basically just an advanced version of the 'Find it' game that people teach their dogs. It made sense that Jac might have gotten a little weary of a constant follower after awhile and would have had to think up some sort of thing to keep Ruri occupied while he went out to have his fun with the ladies. With regards to the kinds of food, I figured that most, non-chocolate hard candies would be okay for canine's to consume which is why I threw that in there along with the meat. Anyway, this could get a little interesting.

Ruri frowned slightly when Jontae did not obey her immediately like she had asked. She would not scold the pup, for that would require catching her, which Ruri could not do very well without her sight. After all, if Jontae was anything like her father, scolding would only prolong the inevitable. So, the delicate lupus stood and waited for Jontae to come inside, only to hear the pup's characteristic questioning voice. Did their really always have to be a reason to do anything? Still, she couldn't help but smile at Jontae's curiosity. She had actually thought up the new game the night before. "Well, all sorts of stuff. We can play hide and seek, we could wrestle a little bit, or..." Ruri paused for dramatic effect. This last game was sure to peak the pup's interest. They had never played it before. "We could play treasure hunt!" she replied, shutting the door behind them after Jontae came inside. Treasure hunt was a game Jac had used to keep Ruri occupied as a pup. Despite being blind, Ruri was descended from dedicated livestock herders who had very active dispositions and active minds to match. Ruri had absolutely hated being bored as a pup, and when Jac had grown weary of her following him around for every second of the day he would make her play a game of treasure hunt to keep herself occupied while he stepped away for awhile to get a breather. The game could last for hours, and still be fun, if set up well. This house was quite a bit larger than sleeping quarters on the ship where Ruri had used to play. There would be plenty of hiding spots for the little treasures that Ruri spoke of.

One might wonder how a blind dog could hunt for any sort of treasure without being able to see it. It's quite simple, actually. When the treasure can be smelled, and tasted, as well as seen, the game can be played by any pup with a half-way decent sense of smell. Jac had used to hide whatever small food items he could scrounge up, whether they were small pieces of chewy dried meat or even the occasional hard-candy, Ruri had spent many an hour sniffing out her treasures. With Jontae's adventurous spirit, playing this game would be easy. Granted it would take awhile for Ruri to find hiding spots that would be hard, as she would have to avoid hiding places where the item might be in plain sight of a non-blind luperci. However, if Jontae was interested in the game, the difficulty would be well worth it.
