The beast waited and stared as Gabriel stopped his flute to grab something from his bag. It closed its eyes as if waiting for a surprise, but wasn't quite still. It always moved somewhat, even if slightly. Either its leg shook or its head bobbed. As the halfling took out the meat, the beast once again lowered his head to sniff the chunk, going around it and examining it like a dog. Determining it was safe, the beast opened its jaws revealing two rows of sharp teeth before it nibbled onto the horse meat, getting to Gabriels hand but not sopping, biting his fingers.
