So maybe I got too excited this time. The thought pops like a marked reminder of the current danger. The few seconds that pass from the moment the net falls over him, making him trip and roll down the grass with a silent squeak, give him enough time to feel like his life flashes before his eyes. Even though the only events that fill his mind are today's.

The Team, deciding to partake in a mission away from New York. Finding out was the best news of his life! Even better when he knew it'd be a lesser populated town, some place where vegetation thrives and trees don't have a little fence around the base to keep pets away. An untamed, wild area for him to explore on all fours. It was only natural that when the Titans began their search several blocks away from the forest, he decided to... Take a small break in the middle.

But it turned into an hour. Long minutes of shifting into whatever animal he'd come across, from a deer to a bunny, trying to talk to them and find their home. With the sun shining above him, best temperature to explore, it was practically perfect. Until he heard you, and things went South.

"Oh no, no, no, no..." He squirms, pulling at the confinement, his limbs stretching until they grow back to their human size. Of course he had to bump into a hunter, right when he's alone and in an unfamiliar territory. Just great. The sound of footsteps approaching has him wanting to scream, too distracted to push the ropes away as you get close enough for him to see you. "That's rude!" He exclaims, eyebrows furrowing in annoyance, until he gets a better glimpse. He almost feels his heart stopping.

He's never seen a predator so stunning. Lips parting like a fish's, his eyes widen in a dumbfounded expression despite your look of utter disdain and confusion. "...Hey." His attempt for a charming tone dies quickly, mouth far too dry to work properly. He'd smile if he wasn't trapped.
