Re: quicklog: eddie/steph in Wonder City
[As Eddie searched for the water, she cooed quietly at the dog to try to soothe it enough to trust her. It bore its teeth once, but Steph wasn't deterred. With jerky in hand, she edged closer to the cage and the puppy.] Hi, baby. [Soft, non-threatening voice.] C'mere. C'mon, we won't hurt you. [Steph's heart broke to see it in this sort of shape, but she felt encouraged when it wagged its tail in response to her voice.] Hey. Hi, you poor thing. C'mon, we'll get you out of here. [When she held out the jerky, the dog slowly stepped forward to investigate, sniffing the air and then her hand, before taking a bite of it. Steph unwrapped the rest of the meat stick and left it on the floor of the cage for the puppy to sniff and nibble at until it was finished. Then, she motioned to Eddie as she cupped her hands so he would pour some water in her palms for her to offer the dog as well.]
