[Chase blinks back. Dogs aren't supposed to be able to read.]

Just a... stupid name. Here--

[He sets it on the floor then slides it over to the ickle puppy. Can you resist it now, Thom?]

[This dog uses the comm, Chase. And talks. And you might or might have noticed he has opposeable thumbs, though you probably haven't seen him walk on his hind legs yet.]

Ooh!

[Thom dives nose-first for the chocolate. It's a rich, deep dark color, and it smells quite amazing.

He takes an experimental lick.

OH MY GOD.

Chomp chomp chomp chomp chomp gulp slurp Chase gave him SO MUCH!!!]

Th... thank you for the treat Mister Chase!

[Mumbling around chunks of chocolate stuck in his teeth. Lick lick lick nom nom.]

Liked that, didn'tcha?

[Ah, details - Thom looked like a dog, acted like a dog, so he was just a dog to Chase. He laughs, then reaches out experimentally to scritch behind Thom's ear? Is Thom okay with that?]

Want some more, boy...?

[Chocolate, being incredibly toxic for dogs due to containing theobromine - in high amounts in the darker kinds, like what Chase had here - was probably not the best "treat" for little Thom, but that was the entire point. If the pup poisons himself on it, why should he be assed to care?]

[The little runt left him in Carnival.]

[Thom jumps a little in paranoia, but Chase doesn't try to grab him or hurt him, so he lets the scritching happen. Feels pretty good actually, so he relaxes just a bit more.]

I can have more??

[Thom will totally eat as much theobromine as Chase has got.

He's going to be a very sick little puppy.]

Here---

[He sets down the entire chocolate bar and rubs Thom on the ruff of the neck. Attaboy.]

[If this doesn't kill him...]

Eat up.

[Thom proceeds to gorge himself.

He's a bit bigger than your average puppy - about 50lbs - so it will take more theobromine to do it, but it's dark chocolate so...]
