133 Howls: Accidental video

[coyote_walking]

[For about the fifth time today, Mercy's run into a dog who senses her coyote self and has decided to try and prove his dominance. She's got her hands on her hips as she faces this one down, her posture and attitude already enough to have the dog questioning the wisdom of this whole thing.]

Do not make me prove I out-dominant you, dog. I can guarantee it will not end happily for you.

[The dog attempts a growl, which quickly fades into a whimper as Mercy takes a threatening step forward, then drops down to cower submissively.]

Good boy. Now run along home before you meet someone even meaner than me.

[She turns, sees the device recording, and sighs as she goes over to turn it off.]

Apology and a word to the wise. If you're one of the dogs who decided to take me on today, I'm sorry. If you've ended up in doggie form and are thinking about it, think again. I'm losing patience with this whole thing.

Apologizing? Why...

[coyote_walking]

In case one of the dogs I've run off was actually a cursed person who ordinarily would never behave that way.

[council_king]

I don't see that it matters, even humans have a pecking order. If you are above them, then that is just how it is.

[coyote_walking]

Not the point.

There are ways to handle it better. I'm not like the werewolves.

[council_king]

Beneath the werewolves, but above the dogs... [No really. He's being 'helpful'.]

[coyote_walking]

Outside of the werewolves, above the dogs.
