Keeping his gaze from Malice, the white hound merely shook his head no at her question. He'd never been truly alone, not for a very long time anyway and, even when he was, it was never any less troubling. Then again, even if he had been alone for a decent amount of time, he'd never remember it, his memory blank and his past a mystery. Heck, he couldn't even remember his time in the labs, just that Addy had led him out and promised to be there from then on...
So where was he now?
Looking up at the female, Gunter was surprised to find that she supposedly had a brother that she had never met. He found such news fascinating and could imagine the sight of her brother. He'd be tall like her with a long tail and the same markings. His ears would be erect but still long like hers, shaped more like a donkey's and he'd have a mane just like Malice did only it would come up on his face like hair rather than sit around his shoulders...
Grinning at the powerful, imposing yet kind and humorous creature he pictured in his mind, the white hound made a mental note to keep an eye out for this mystery sibling. He was really curious now...
"I dunno. You seem kind enough to me... Besides, siblings should always stick together. Born together, live together..."
Pausing in his cheerful pick-me-up, Gunter stared ahead of them blankly, his mind searching for the identity of the critter who'd said that to him...
"Someone I knew always used to say that... but I can't... I can't remember who..."

Kind...he thought her kind? She gave a laugh, but he was right. "Well, you're not actually my type Gunter." she said, "Other wise you'd see a whole different girl." She gave a happy sort of look, "You seem like you need someone for the time being. I have no one who needs me, so I believe it works out for both of us." Everyone needs someone now and then...
His words were an interesting concept. "We may be born together, but forces pull us apart." she said, "In my case it was humans as from the looks of it yours." She laughed at her own words. Well no duh. "You have something though Gunter. Even if you don't know everything, you have something of value that some of us can only reach for."
She smiled and continued in the general direction they were heading...

Glancing back up as their conversation continued, the young hound grew confused a moment. Her type? Who said anything about a type? Maybe his words were simply misinterpretted. Heck, he did it to others all the time since his hearing liked to cut out on him. No big deal, though he had to agree with what she said, even if it didn't fit in with their current subject matter. If he had a "type", it probably didn't include Malice...
But the rest of her statement hit home for the smaller canine, his gaze turning toward the path in a thoughtful manner. Was it really that obvious? His dependency, his weakness...? He'd always tried to keep it hidden but it never seemed to work real well. He was never really good at pretending to be what he wasn't, anyway so why was he expecting others to overlook it?
Sighing, Gunter paused, readjusting his hat before trotting a bit hastily to catch up with Malice again...
"Something of value? Me?"
He narrowed his sea green gaze in her direction, suspciously curious. What could he possibly have of value except a tattered scarf and an old hat? Come to think of it, Addy had said something very similar once. 'You're right Gunter, you always are in your own little way and, sometimes, I wish I could be like that.' Though he hadn't understood what Adolf had meant when it was said, it seemed to make more sense now...
"Like what?"
Though it made more sense, he didn't really believe it. He was weak, annoying and overly dependant of others... what value was in that?

She stopped and looked down at him. "Yes, you." she replied, "You have a family, even if right now it's broken. You're a part of something. Some of us are just bricks in a wall. We're with others, but we are nothing more then the same plain face. No one knows us, no one sees us outside of the whole..." She took a breath through her large black nose thinking. How could she truly explain how she felt?
The breath was forced out of her lungs, "I don't know how to say what I want across." she continued truthfully, "We'll all suppose to have something in our lives...but someone us can't see if we have it or not." Her masked face turned away and looked to the horizon. What did she want? "We still need to find you hot brother..."

Stopping as she did, Gunter stared up at the taller canine in... well, it was something like awe or amazement but neither of them specifically. He'd had no idea Malice's thoughts were so deep. Why? Well, he could've assumed such a thing but preferred not to make such horrid biased judgments of others. So, he'd assumed that she saw everything as it was, the way he typically did, not really taking into account that she too had a brain and probably used it. Blinking a few times, the younger hound looked elsewhere for a moment, thinking...
"I know what you're saying... or at least, I think I do..."
Ignoring her finishing mention of his brother, Gunter spoke tentively. He wasn't one to voice his ideas, since most of them sucked something major and no one wanted to hear them. But, sometimes, saying something seemed to be the right answer, even if it was something cruddy that made no sense...
"...but what makes you think I know the 'thing' in my life?"
He paused again, perking his ears at a sudden possibility that crossed into his mind...
"Surely you don't mean Addy? I mean... yeah, he's my brother and yeah, life wouldn't be the same without him but... he's not the family you think he is."
Another pause, this time to look away from Malice to focus deeply on the soil at his feet...
"I'm a burden on him, his duty and nothing else... except maybe his punching bag..."

"Did say you did." she replied with a grin, "I'm sure your brother is just as messed up as the rest of us. Means well, but doesn't know how to show it. I can't talk though, I've never had anything." One...
The female sighed and looked again the fading horizon, "Gunter, why don't we find some place for the night. As all as it doesn't rain his scent should still be there. We can track him full in the morning without worry." she said twisting her neck to lick her shoulder, "Plus my wings are tired from all this flapping." To her she stretched out a wing and nibbled a few feathers, to everyone else she nibbled the air.
"I'll stay with you till you'll set." she said coming back to him, "You're no burden to me and I can whip your brother for you, just so he knows." The hound pulled back her dark lips in a smile.

Keeping his gaze down, the hound mentally spoke with himself, keeping his jaws shut firmly. No, there'd be no need to let Malice know what he was thinking. She'd probably start pitying him, like the rest of the world did... but whatever he was thinking, it didn't last long, thrown away by an intersting statement on her part...
Curious, Gunter glanced up in a puppy-ishly curious fashion, his head tilting to the side at the mention of wings, but rather than ask, he merely questioned himself silently. Wings? What wings? Was he going blind or something, since he saw no apendeges at the fae's shoulders? Well, whatever... If she said she had wings, then dag nabbit, she must have wings.... somewhere...
Exhanging his confusion for a cheerful smile, the white hound nodded brightly, his tail flipping back and forth twice in the best wag it could manage...
"Okay. Sounds like a plan."
Pausing amoment, he gave a quick glance around, his gaze landing upon the log over which Malice had jumped and under which he'd crawled... but he dismissed it quickly enough. Though it'd make a fine shelter for a slim figure like his, there was no way Malice could ever fit in there...

"That's good." she replied catching his gaze as it was thrown elsewhere. The log she'd played mountain goat had took his eyes. He could fit under it, but there was no way she could get her lanky body into that tuna can. Dark, masked eyes continued to stare. It might just be high enough...
"You could try it." she said to him, muzzle coming back to face, "It looks like it might be high enough to block the wind, if it should pick up." Short tail bobbed side to side quickly, "I'll be fine, don't worry."

((That sucks...))
The male hound was about to turn his gaze away from the dead tree when Malice spoke up again. Ears perking in a bit of surprise, he glanced between her face and the log with a cute sense of curious doubt, contemplating her offer to try and fit the hollow vegetation. He didn't really want to spend the night in the dark, damp, cramped little area though he also didn't want to search for an hour to find another place to stay.
Furrowing his white brow in further contemplation, Gunter almost defiantly stomped over to the log, a skeptical grin on his long muzzle. He took a moment, walking around the site casually, dissecting every moss-covered inch with his keen sea green gaze. he even gave it a few tentative sniffs with the tip of his nose, immediately recoiling at the horrid stench.
"I'm not so sure, Malice. It seems cold..."
He paused, batting the exterior with one forepaw as if it were about to jump up and bite him...
"...and wet and it smells like ass. Plus, it'd never sheild either of us from the rain, should some come up while we rest."
He crouched a little on his short legs, peeking under the log out at where Malice's paws would be before crawling beneath it yet again and giving his short, sparce coat a brisk shake. Since his fur was so short, the sticks and debris simply flew from it with ease, since it had nothing to stick to except the pale pink skin beaneth visible in particularly thin areas like his legs, face and tail. Hence why he was so iffy about sleeping in a damp log...
Flipping the spade tip of his tail mindlessly, Gunter began to glance around again, hoping another shelter might catch his keen eye or nose...

((I apologize to you and Faust. at the moment I can only get one reply in. Also, as long as this comp is the one I'm using I don't think I'll be able to log in...))
She watched, listening to his words. Finally her scarred head nodded. He was right. "I thought we were hoping it didn't rain though?" she said with a grin, just to tease some. The hounds short tail flipped up behind her.
Head looked around again as she took a couple pranced steps. Dark eyes trying to find something not there. "We can keep going then." she finally peeped as if coming back from else where, "There is nothing to say we are safe here, but nothing says of either if we go." She tossed her head, making her ears wobble on both sides of her head.
"We'll find a place." she spoke, more feeling behind these words. She breathed out a breath as she another step. She had no idea what was around.

((It's okay. I've been kinda busy lately with school coming up, the surgery and follow-up xrays and what not. plus, a friend asked me to help get her site off the ground and, so far, I've been doing all the work. *sigh*))
Glancing in Malice's direction, the hellhound made a rather convincing pouty face at her little tease though it was quickly exchanged for a playful view of his tongue. So only children stick their tongues out at each other, so what? He was known for breaking molds and busting the typical stereotypes and all that fun stuff. Quickly sucking the pink apendege back into his jaws, where it belonged, with a smile, Gunter returned to his area search...
Despite his keen gaze, nothing stuck out at him. Just trees, trees and more trees. Had he been by himself, one of said trees would've been a suitable perch, his long snake-like body being perfect for climbing. However, heights are always a "No no" with him and, though a tree wasn't too high or anything, he'd much rather sleep somewhere a little closer to the ground...
Turning his attention to the female hound, long ears perked from beneath his oversized hat, making it shift farther to the right than it usually sat and resulting in a quick adjustment to keep it from falling...
"Yeah... I mean, there are plenty of trees around right? One of them has to be upturned or something so we can sleep in the roots..."
Trotting up beside her, he paused to fix his hat again...
"Or at least I hope so..."

"Agreed." she replied sticking her tongue out at him. Hers was several different colors. He came back up to her fixing his hat. Her tail bobbed and she pranced in place a second. "If we don't get going, we won't know." she said taking slow steps forward. Her stride was long, so she'd take her time. That way they could remain side by side for the trek.
"Gunter do you mind if I ask something?" she spoke, "Is there any particular reason you wear false fur? I mean it doesn't look like it covers what you need." Everytime she looked at him she could easily point out a thin patch of fur that clear showed his pink skin below it. Also his head wasn't designed for the hat he had to keep adjusting.
((diff comp. *grin* ))

Nodding cheerfully, the white hound remained where he stood for a moment, craning his head back and to the side in order to scratch the top of his muzzle with a hind paw. The increase in humidity that came with the setting sun was beginning to bother his sensitive flesh but he'd live...
After the quick scratch, his short legs had to move rather quickly in order to catch up with the long-legged Malice, a clumsy-looking lope of sorts slowing down to a casual trot as he pulled along side, sea green gaze directed up at her face in curiosity...
"False fur?"
The terminology initially didn't settle right with him at first, his soft white brow furrowing for a moment in confusion. But that same movement shifted the hat yet again and it slid down over his eyes comically, calling for another pause to adjust it and another awkward lope to keep up...
"Oh! You mean my hat and scarf..."
Trailing off a moment to look back at the green fabric that trailed lazily beside him, Gunter gave a quiet sigh, as if preparing for a long speech, though he was sure there'd be little say in the matter...
"Well... I don't rightfully know to tell you the truth. Someone gave them to me long ago, I figure, and, for some reason, I just get nervous without them. Not so much the scarf... I mean, I like to have it but I take it off when swimming and sometimes when I sleep or hunt... but the hat's a different story. Though I don't know why, everything just seems wrong when I'm not wearing it and I'd never let anyone take from me..."

Malice eyed him as if debating with herself. It'd be easy to snatch his hat right off his floppy eared head. She could have, but something nagged at her as she thought. Her eyes narrowed and she pushed the idea away. She wouldn't scar him with that, maybe later with something else.
"Must have been someone important to you." she replied, dark orbs watching him, "Feelings like those are developed over simple things. It's a shame you don't know." In mid stride the hound's head went down and nudged the white boy's close shoulder. "Maybe we'll find out someday, yes?"

Pausing to re-adjust his hat yet again, the little hound took his time with it, delicately admiring the item for a moment before trotting quickly to catch up with Malice, arriving at her side just in time to receive the nudge to the shoulder, which he commically exadurated by pretending to be thrown off balance with a grin.
"I hope so."
Beaming a smile in her direction, Gunter let a thought cross his mind and glanced off to the side in contemplative thought...
"Maybe I should ask Addy..."
((OMG sucks! >< I'm so distracted right now...))
