@TobsXjw Gray thought for a moment before nodding and offering up a soft, "yeah, I will."
Which he instantly regretted; he never quite got over his and Tobias' breakup
Giving Tobi one more smile, the younger man stepped away to let Tobi speak to others; his heart racing nervously.
@AstuteDefense Gray moved when Zach moved, nearly mirroring the elder's actions. Even once he was buckled in, the younger brother couldn't help but swallow hard.
"Tree... Tree!! That's a tree in the road!"
He called out once a truck had snapped, blocking the path before them last second.
@OwensBetaBlue > lifting, the pre-teen threw his arms around Blue's neck in a tight hug.
"Owen said you've been really anxious lately. Like he can't control you. I told him he never could. Because no one controls you, Blue. Huh?"
@OwensBetaBlue Gray couldn't help but laugh at his Raptor-friend's excitement. Sure, she could rip him to shreds in the blink of an eye, but...
He trusted Blue.
More than he trusted any grownup. Or Zach. But Zach picked on him w a y too much to be fully trustworthy, anyways.

@AstuteDefense Gray's eyes widened as he sat beside his older brother; the roughness of the terrain jostling him to a fro.
"Z-Zach...?"
He asked with uncertainty, his gaze locked straight ahead at the road they were traveling.
@OwensBetaBlue A final spin had the young boy dropping to the soft, though unforgiving, Earth beneath them with a grunt. Once the pain of his rear subsided, a wide grin spread over Gray's lips.
"/Told you/ I'd come back!!"
@OwensBetaBlue The boy laughed as he settled on top of her large side, giving the tough skin poke after poke. He had missed his raptor. Missed her terribly. "Blue!!" He called out, voice slightly deeper now that he had aged a tad bit from his last time on the island.
