Holding Pens - John and Lydia
"Only because you've already made me so eager, Mistress. And I'm glad that you find it cute, I'm sure I'll do my best to be more well behaved when under your ownership," he then stepped back to watch her, letting her go about the haggling.
He glanced back at the others in the pen with him, particularly the young man who'd been the cause of all of this by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. He knelt down near him and put his hand on his shoulder, "I'm leaving, and your time will come too. Be careful here though, they'll gun for you. If you're small, be fast. Get smart. You'll be fine."
He patted the boy before standing and awaiting removal from the pen. He was looking forward to an opportunity to get cleaned up after so long in here.
