The creeptastic mountain man isn’t enough to give Sensiki pause, given the ungodly amount of crap they’ve been through to get this far; the giant wolf, however, is.
“-hoshit,” Slawh mumbles, grabbing blindly at Hiskota’s sleeve and clinging. Hiskota, impervious to pain though he may be, clings right back. Their heads are both tilted back to stare up at the seven-foot tall monstrosity, eyes wide and lips parted in horror.
Sensiki feels a bit like clinging to something himself.
“If you think Ru’s bad,” the mountain man begins, “wait ‘til you see the menagerie up the hill. You’re going to love Vivian.”
“Does she rip out people’s hearts and feast on their entrails?” Slawh asks, shifting slightly behind Hiskota.
“What, Vivian?” The mountain man throws back his head and laughs. The gargantuan beast with the five inch fangs - Ru - snorts down into Sensiki’s face; the gust of fetid air blows back his hair and he winces at the smell. “God no. You’ll just wish you were dead once she starts in on you. There’s something about being insulted by a drunken hedgehog that just knocks you down a few pegs on the esteem ladder.”
Vivian's kind of awesome, despite being drunk and crazy. Unlike Chris, who is decidedly not awesome, aside from that one time she drops an F-bomb on Pete... which is actually kind of hilarious.
And since it's more inevitable than my blind acupuncturist references: REMEMBER THAT TIME SAM GOT HIT BY THE CAR, LAWL!
