The wolf finds her first, growling at her shape in the shadows, and Ben follows a moment later, in full toy soldier regalia despite the lateness of the hour.

No pixies as far as he can see, and he's not sure if he should be pleased.

"Thank you kindly for your patience, ma'am," he says, with a tip of his hat.

Bad dog. Dru glares at the puppy for a long moment, paying less attention to the human accompanying it.

"You're nothing like Sunshine."

The puppy glares back, until Ben barks his name and brings him to heel.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you," Ben says, although he's not at all certain she wasn't speaking to Diefenbaker.

The human. It speaks again.

Upon observation, Dru doesn't find him as terrible a puppy as the other.

He does smell rather like maple syrup.

"Are you sure you want your present?"

"It would be ungracious to decline."
