 First thought: Oh God, those poor people, oh hell, how could I have not noticed it happening.

Second thought: You did well under pressure, wasn't even your fucking fault, if they'd actually taught that beast how to live properly.

Third thought: There is a blood splatter that reaches from your wrist, up your elbow, across your shirt, from your jaw to your hairline. It looks like when you have those paint sets for little kids with those black, stiff, brushes and you dip it into a water colour and just spray it, and oh! Not red anymore but more of a plum colour and some are turning orange.

Fourth thought: more of a whimpering shriek.

Deity, I'm shaking and shaking hard. 

My summer job is dogwalking. I walk a pair of dogs together; a whippet and a huge German Shepherd whose head comes up to the small of my back; I'm 5'7 so that is a big dog. Today the German shepherd grabbed the whippets ear and bit, when I was a few meters away in the overgrown grass field. Didn't notice until the whippet, who hadn't made a sound, ran up to me with her side streaked in blood. I swear, I think my blood turned to ice. 

Ran back to the house, whippet lolloping beside me, German shepherd following, shut the shepherd into his outside run then checked the whippet all over whilst shaking like I had been in snow in a swimsuit. 

Whippet was fine but for the ear, which wasn't too deep, just had bled a lot. Talked to the next door neighbour of the owner, rang the owners and cleaned up the whippet. Everythings fine.

Except I had to walk home streaked in blood and flecks of blood.

*nice calming hugs* Yike, sounds like quite an ordeal. You okay?

Also, what is a whippet?

*clingy hugs back* Thank you. :) a whippet is a breed of dog - they look a lot like greyhounds but are smaller.

I seem to not be having too much luck with animals this month, huh?

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Eh, luck changes as often as underwear. :)

Cloud: "If the doggies are both okay, everything's fine! Here, hold Silverstream, he'll calm you down!"
Silverstream: *purr*

[green-animation.livejournal.com]

me: *purr*

Hehe, good points, both you and Cloud. They are both alive, and the owners don't hate me so alls well that ends well? Thing is I don't get at all flustered when it is humans bleeding, because they can tell you what is wrong. Does that make sense?

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

I do understand, yes. And animals are just better than people, so innocent, so it's sadder when one is hurt.

Silverstream: *PURR*
Cloud: "He says you're cuddly." *giggles*

=D Yay *snuggles Silverstream*

I agree with you that it is sadder, of course. Luckily the owners gave me a bell afterwards and the doggies are both a'okay and I can go back to walking them, phew. Let us hope there is no more drama, eh?

Gizmo *butts Cloud's knees with his head* - I think he wants a cuddle as well, Cloudy.

Cloud: *giggle* "Sometimes Amarissia says I should wear a bell, so it'd be easier for Seph to keep track of me. Like a cow!" *giggles, hugs Gizmo* "Ooh, he licked me!"

I get told that a lot too, actually. Although that is more because I walk quietly and scare the hell out of people quite a bit, heh.

Although 'give me a bell' is slang for give me a call, over here, not sure if you say that over there, so sorry ^-^;

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

"Give me a bell"? Huh, cool. I've learned new slang!

I walk like that too, apparently. People never realize I'm in the room till I'm right next to them. :)

I'm slowly seducing you over to the world of Welsh slang XD

I can be a little annoying as I pounce on people if I'm in the mood, which has resulted in many a shriek ringing out through the commonroom. And many a backwards flailing hand to hit me with. So much fun. XD if only Cloud and Sephiroth swapped bodies for a day Cloud would have amazing fun doing that, I bet.

I wish there were a bodyswap materia. And a genderswap one. And a chibi summon, and... *mutters*
