Dar manages to flip his lower body around before he is dropped unceremoniously on the floor by his new owner. He shakes it off carefully, wondering what he'd done to deserve the treatment. [i]'Well, that was uncalled for. Unless I did something. . .I can't think of anything. . . .I know humans do not like dung on their things, or pee, but I am very clean! Oh, perhaps it's my fur. . .'[/u] While the beast tries to figure out what he did wrong he ignores the prince for the most part. When the prince spoke again however he turned respectfully to look. [i]'My space I suppose?'[/i] He wanders over to check out his small little home, snuffling at it curiously. [i]'If he wants me off his, bed did he call it? Then I am content here'[/i] Pawing at it lightly he looks back over at the man, cocking his head to the side. [i]'Well, he's laughing. I know that's a good sound'[/i] Noticing some funny smells on his paws from where the boy grabbed him Dar begins trying to lick them away. However he is interrupted from his task by once more being hoisted up into an uncomfortable ride. Soon he find himself dangling over a pond, his paws barely touching the water, the warming air sending him many different scents from around the area. He doesn't have long to appreciate the smell though as after a moment he is dropped into the water. Dar is a very good swimmer so he is in no danger of drowning, however the suddenness of it does send him under water for a moment. Once he's above the water again he shakes his head hard and snorts out the water from his nose. His dense fur allows him to float rather easily and soon he begins paddling around the small water source. [i]'He must have thought me filthy. Well, I was cleaning my paws. Maybe that's why he pulled me off the bed? He thought I was dirty? Anyways, this is nice. . . .'[/i] The cool water does feel good on his skin and after a few circles he turns back to the price and yaps happily.
