Do not try to steal Elion from him, Night Sky. Gadriel will be sad.
"We will bring you something too big for you to bring down yourself." So, like...a treat.
"I can also just enjoy you running." The same way dog owners enjoy watching dogs race around. He doesn't really need more than that. It's just good to spend time with her again. "I know you know a good spot for this."
But what if she stole him and Satchel and they had a cat tea party in little bonnets?
"Yeah? If you wanted me to transform, you could just say so." So she would do that once she trotted ahead a few feet, shifting into her antlered lupine form. Of course she knew a good spot, too — a clearing not far away where deer tended to wander in an out would be a perfect place to hunt them down.
Elion would probably love it, that's what would happen.
"I...?" Ma'am he would not suggest such sorcery. But he's not going to complain as she changes shape in front of him. She was beautiful and recognizable in every form. "I will keep up." And of course, he's a weirdo, so he could, only without the lissome grace of a wolf, and more like the dead sprint of a transhuman science project.
Close enough. Night Sky hurried through the trees, keeping him on his toes when she zigzagged around a few thicker trunks. She only began to slow when they neared the clearing, crouching down low on all fours. A few doe were grazing not far off, ears swiveling to keep alert for any predators.
Terrifying news for them — these two were surprisingly quiet. She grinned, sharp teeth bared, and nodded her head to Gadriel. Ready?
He nodded back, his mouth curling in an almost unaccustomed smile. It felt good to work as a team with someone, good to run, full speed, and move. He loved Melinoë, but he could not share her sorcery and she could not share his with him.
As she ran, Gadriel darted out to one side to flank the does as they flicked their ears, catching some coming sound. He drew his knife but thought better of it. Much better to take it bare handed. After all Sky didn't have a weapon, either.
Night Sky took off after him, darting right once he picked his target to snatch up the one beside it. The remaining two doe in the field managed to hop off — but these two? Not a chance in hell. She pounced, teeth sinking into its neck, snapping it quick and efficiently before she tossed it to the ground, the body falling limp in the grass, blood staining the blades red.

She turned to see how Gadriel had fared with his.
