Ma'tanza could not quite get out from underneath Tzirret in his werewolf form, and no amount of force she could produce would push him off of her. Instead, she reached up and scratched his ears, and kissed him once more on the snout. At the same time, she started rubbing his stomach with her feet, allowing the claws on her toes to scratch him gently. "You know, Ma'tanza always wanted a dog. You're a bit bigger, but...you're close enough, she thinks." Ma'tanza joked. Lifting up her upper body, she wrapped her arms around Tzirret's neck to give him a hug. --- The moment she saw the jackal on the floor in front of her, Ri'vashi's beast practically pounced to tear into it. She had refrained from putting too much thought into what she was doing until the beast had already started eating. Fortunately, she was paying enough attention when Gallus spoke up that she understood what he asked, though she did not answer him immediately. She waited until she had finished the entirety of the carcass before looking up from her meal, which only took a minute or so given the size of her lycan form. Although the meat had been raw, it had been dried enough that her fur was not terribly bloody. It was not ideal for trying to trick her beast spirit, but it was enough for the moment. After her brief meal, Ri'vashi stood up straighter to indicate that she was back in full control of her own mind. As for Gallus' question, she started to laugh. Or at least, she gave a few low huffs that might pass for laughter. "Not quite." She answered. "La'tahne is a...popular and unpopular woman. She's our gardener. Her solution to her beast's restlessness is to use that form to mate with as many people as she pleases. It does nothing to satisfy bloodlust, obviously, but it does serve as a distraction...as Ri'vashi has been told, that is. Personally, this one thinks fighting would be more effective." As she spoke, Ri'vashi sat herself down near to Gallus and did what she could to focus on calming herself. A single scamp was not exactly challenging prey, so her beast was more than wiling to continue its hunt.
