    Summary

    Four large paws hit the ground in quick succession as the path turns from paved sidewalk to gravel road. Ryuji’s lungs expand and contract as he times his breathing to his sprint; it’s been a while since he’s ran like this and he had almost forgotten how good it feels. The wind in his fur, the sounds of nature in his ears, gritty dirt between his paw pads…

    He really should do this more often. His mom wasn’t like him, but she always told Ryuji that she never wanted him to abandon this part of himself. Ryuji isn’t like his father, he’s never heard the call of the ‘wild’ or whatever mumbo jumbo had his dad running off the way he did, but…

    Right now? He feels free.

    In which Ryuji Sakamoto is the post-teenage wolf and Akira Kurusu really, really likes dogs.
