Callum and Ava (Dragon prince)

Ellis was out doing her chores with her wolf Ava. It still surprised her how her parents were shocked by Ava only having three legs. But it had been a good illusion for the fourth one.

Ava was just laying down next to her person as she did her chores. Suddenly a familiar scent wafted into her powerful nose.

Ava knew this scent. It’s one of the three scents of the two human boys and their elf friend that they’d met 6 months ago. This was Callum’s scent.

Ellis turned to see Ava standing up and her tail wagging. She could also hear and see how vigorously Ava was sniffing the air.

“What is it, girl” Ellis asked. Ava looked back at her and barked twice before taking a few more whiffs of the scent she’d caught and taking off toward the source.

”Wait Ava” Ellis said as she chased after her massive wolf.

Callum had been at the Moon nexus trying to learn about moon magic. Sure he was a sky mage but he still wanted to learn about all the primal sources.

As he reached the town after coming down the mountain he was thinking of visiting his friends Ellis and her huge wolf, Ava.

“Hrm, I think I will go s-“ Callum couldn’t finish due to being tackled to the ground by a specific 6 foot tall wolf.

By the time he could figure out what was going on, all he could see were the taste buds of the wolf’s tongue repeatedly dragging over his face as if the wolf were trying to lick him to death.

””Hahahaha no sto- I’m not- Avahahahaha- it tickl-“ Callum laughed as Ava kept licking him, occasionally being cut off from her tongue sliding over his face.

”Ava what are you…Callum” Ellis said upon arrival and seeing what made Ava be in such a good mood.

“Hahahahi Ellihihihis. Ava quihihihite” Callum tried to say through the seemingly endless barrage of licks he was receiving.

”Okay Ava, I think he’s got the point that you missed him” Ellis said with a smile.

Ava stopped licking Callum and walks back over to Ellis and gives her a single big slobbery face-lick.

Callum stands up, brushing himself off and wiping the saliva off his face.

“So what are you doing here” Ellis asked. “I came here to try and better understand moon magic” Callum answered.

”I was coming to visit you two since I was finished studying at the moon nexus, but it seems you found me first.” Callus said.

”Well, my Ava’s nose is far better than any tracking dogs. I think she might even be on par with certain species of bear” Ellis explained.

Ava gave a few barks in agreement with her person about her sensitive sniffer. Then, almost to prove the point, Ava snuffled both Ellis and Callum’s faces before giving both each a big sloppy lick.

“Haha Ava” Ellis giggled.

”You know I would like to test the idea of illusion magic. I might not b able to do it myself but I could get close by creating some type of fog” Callum said.

”Cool, but what does that have to do with us” Ellis asked.

“Simple, Ava would have to find me” Callum said.

”Oh, so it’s like hide and seek. Okay we can definitely do that” Ellis said.

Callum draws a specific rune in the air with his hand and says the dragonic word for ‘fog’. This makes a fog cloud roll in.

Callum then goes to hide and and after 5 minutes he calls to Ellis to start.

“Okay girl, go find him” Ellis said. Ava barked twice and shoved her nose to the ground, sniffing Callum’s trail.

Ava followed the trail, with her nostrils frantically flaring and nose being filled with Callum’s scent.

Callum could see the surrounding area through the leaves of the large bushes he was hiding in. Soon he thought he heard the sound of loud sniffing coming toward him from the front.

Peering through the leaves, Callum saw Ava. With her tail wagging and her nostrils flaring as she snuffled along. Apparently she really liked how he smelled.

Ava walked over to the bush Callum was in and took several deep whiffs in front of it. She then pounced through the bush and knocked Callum out of it.

Ava then started showing Callum all the affection she could be repeatedly dragging her big wolf tongue over his face.

(SlurpSlurpSlurpSlurpSlurp Slurrrpp)

Almost no time passed between one lick being finished and another starting.

Ava stopped only for a moment to howl to tell Ellis that she’d found Callum and where they are.

“Okay you found me Ava. Now could you let me up” Callum said.

Ava just pushed him back down and kept lathering his face with her tongue.

”No sto- hey that t-hahahaha Av-“ Callum laughed as the tongue dragging over his face kept cutting him off. All he could see were the taste buds on the slobbery tongue as it kept sliding up his face.

Ellis soon arrived and just smiled at the sight of her huge wolf trying to lick Callum to death.

”Hahahaha no Ava-“ (SSSSLLLLUUUURRRRPPPP).
