|[ it speaks. it thinks. ]|


Like dust carried on feeble wind, the construct had managed to meander further from its point of origin. The air seemed to bite less, and its softer skin hummed its thanks. The pine trees released a strange, fresh kind of smell that invigorated its functions, injected a lightness in its heart that it could not deflate. Anticipation becomes a source of discomfort when not satisfied, like any of the other demands the flesh made of the mind. It would find something here.

Angry water frothed beside it, doing nothing to calm its nerves. It could not help but think that it too, could sense the tension in the atmosphere. It was anything but patient.

The sound of collision crashed through his senses, his hidden eyes snapping to the source - only to find it being pulled from his gaze by the current. A game. A hunt, Its adrenaline whispered, and it answered with the drumming of feet on ground as it galloped forward. It did not know what it was chasing yet, that it would figure out along the way, along with what it would do with the thing once caught and still. If it was a thing.

Flashes of fur and flailing limb told it no, and its tendrils buzzed with excitement. To find another mind would be a wonderful event, so long as this one didn't drown first. His thoughts fanned out as he fought to keep up with the current. Hello! Do you require my assistance?
