Totem
Time waits for no one, so do you wanna waste some time?





It is the pup who hears the summons, pointed ears catching an unfamiliar voice uttering the combination of sounds that symbolizes his bonded. It is only part of the stallion, leaving out scent, sound, and sight, but it is enough. Laise turns to the pale maned male and yaps sharply to get his attention(so easy to gain, but hard to keep, he has learned), before racing off to find the origin of the call. He doesn't need to look back to know that Totem follows, able to hear the slight groan emitted by the buck as he rises, then the crisp crunch of hooves breaking the crust of snow that always covers the ground here.

Scents hit him first, the odor of unicorn almost drowning the pup, filling the air until he cannot decipher anything else. Voices also filter in, cacophonous, and Laise simply stops, whining and turning to his bonded for comfort. None comes, simply a cold emptyness as the stallion strides past, flaming eyes focused on the gathered shapes ahead, leaving the pup behind without hesitation. Whimpers escape his throat as he chases after Totem, the thought of being abandoned driving him to keep close to the stag, no matter how terrified he may be of the other unicorns.

Yet, the black-shouldered stallion is not completely cruel, for a quick sense of approval is sent through their mental link once they stand among the strangers, soothing the hound enough that he sits by his companion's hooves, looking around with a combination of curiosity and trepidation. They all tower over him, a black monster who keeps slightly back, a painted creature that he immediately dislikes(or perhaps that is Totem's reaction. Sometimes he can't tell.), a brindle with massive curling horns(and a pup at his side!), and the white beast who is almost a hound, but not. This one intrigues Laise, as does the other whelp, for he has never seen another canine before, and his previous fear is replaced by the need to investigate. But Totem wishes him to be still and silent, and the oddly colored stag is speaking, filling the air with information that the pup does not understand, but senses that his bonded does, and is interested in.

Soon, others are joining in, a myriad of tones that do nothing except confuse and overwhelm until he is forced to huddle against a dark leg, the contact with his bonded offering the illusion of safety. Then, words are sliding from the stag, wrapping the whelp in comfort despite not being directed to him, but to the duel-horned. "Thar's got my interest."


(OOC: Going with Dingo's suggestion of Totem having been there, so things don't have to be explained again.)
