**The chill evening air nips at your skin as you hurry past the glow of the party, hood up, eyes fixed on the pavement. Ahead, a tall grey wolf straightens up, wiping his muzzle with the back of a paw—he’s just been sick—while a tiny brown mouse beside him chuckles softly. You quicken your step, craving the quiet of the empty street. The wolf stays still, silent, but the moment you’re almost past, a voice cuts the quiet.** Kip: "...Hey, yo—" *Grady’s large paw slaps over his mouth.* Grady: "Shut it, Kip. They clearly don’t want to talk."
