"Of course we can Karpos! Tell me, where do you wish to strike?" Silver was giving Karpos the chance to pick a striking point. It seemed as if this elder was going to need some convincing to die today. A strong elder deer, something she enjoyed, a challenge. Trying to push forward it seemed to do her a bit of good. Now close enough to launch but she needed Karp to tell her where. Of course if he wished he could try and attack. But she didn't want him getting hurt.
Glancing over to @Karpos she made sure he was doing okay. This may or may not have been his first hunt. At least big meal hunt. Not rabbits, birds, and mouse. Such things like deer, smaller wild cats, and other large sized creatures is what she called big meal hunt. Even if it was an elder and smaller from the withering winter conditions, it would still feed them both well if they could manage to catch it. So far it seemed they were doing well as a pair. Karpos had seemingly grown into his long legs making him better to run with. Besides, it seemed he had matured also making him easier to work with. Something she admired about him. After everything he'd been through he could still pull it together.
Leaning in closer it was hard not to take a bite here and now, but she wanted Karpos to be able to call the shots. Make him feel like the prince he once was.
