[folds arms and lashes tail making he's at least seven feet tall when he's plenty shorter than this not-pet friend of Thom's and wears a restraint collar besides.]
He's my best friend.
[Long pause]
Don' hurt 'im.
[pivots on his on his bare feet and stalks away having said what he came to say.]
[Pauses. Tips his head to one side, then turns around and flips the mass of long, heavy, spikey blue-black hair, same as on his tail]
No. No you wouldn't. I ken see an' smell that now. I dunno how long I'll be here, cause I didn' seem to get here the same way everyone else did. But I smelled you on him, so I hadda check. I gotta look out for Thom, as long as I'm here wi'him.
[He pads back slowly, all hair and tail. Cocks his head again and considers the other boy. Taller than him, but most everyone was. He fingers his heavy collar out of habit as he takes the other boy in.]
Someone hurt you. Didn' they.
