[Ven was doing his morning rounds before finally getting to Wolf's cell. He brings buttered toast with a side of mangos into the side room, sliding it in the hatch that connects the two areas]
@the-oblivious-fox
[He doesn't take it immediately. A small growl leaves the room for a moment before it goes quiet again.]
[Ven's voice comes over the intercom]
Morning to you too, Wolf
He glances up to where a camera is and glares.
I made you food?
@locked-up-mutt
[He scowls but goes to the plate and takes small, careful bites]
Is it good? I didn't know what fruit you liked-
"It's fine"
[Theres a pause before a quieter spoken]
"Thank you..."
Of course, I'm happy to help
[Ven flips through his papers]
Okay- we have just a quick check-up today and that's all
[He glares at the camera again]
I'm just going to check that you're healthy and not hurt
[His ears go flat against his hair, clearly unhappy with it.]
I promise I'm not gonna hurt you, Wolf
"whatever....hurry up...."
[Ven goes into the room, holding medical tools and first-aid]
[Wolf watches him as closely as he can. His tail tucks.]
[Ven makes sure to have a calm air around him]
[Wolf makes no move to attack. He knows better. Plus he doesn't want to. He's just defensive]
[Ven starts to carefully perform checks on Wolf's animal bits, teeth health, wounds, health in general]
[He nips his hand when checking teeth, not enough to break skin or really even hurt, but more of a warning.]
[He winces slightly, but doesn't show a sign of anger]
Aye- I'm not hurting
[He makes a grumble of displeasure but doesn't do it again.]
[After a few more minutes, Ven's done]
Very good job, Wolf, you're all healthy
".....thanks"
[He gives a soft smile]
Of course, I'm happy to help
"....why?"
I don't want people to hurt
"and yet you work here"
I need money- and Mr. Big Boss Man always threatens me when I want to leave-
"whatever you say...."
[He sits on the floor, leaning his head back against a wall]
"I'm just saying you're in the wrong business if you don't want people to be hurt"
I'm just glad I'm at least not the one doing the hurting
"right...at least you're not doing the hurt or being hurt it's okay..."
[He grumbles]
I never said that- all of this is very very wrong
"Doesn't take a genius to see that..."
Well, Fable's not a genius-
"Don't let him hear you say that..."
I've said worse
"...thanks for the food..."
