Date/Time: 19th May, midmorning
Location: The woods (off the manor grounds)
Status: Private (Rose, Raphael and probably later Belial)
Summary: Would you care for a walk?

Rose was slowly walking towards the edge of the woods. Still troubled by the events and revelations from two days ago she had offered Raphael to walk with her through these woods today and she hoped he'd come. She wanted, no, she needed to talk to him...

Raphael gripped the ball, laughing as he tried to pry it away from her teeth so that he could throw it again. He moved to his knees, playfully wrapping an arm around Cloud's soft middle and bracing himself for a wrestle, still holding the ball with his fingers.

right now, there was nothing to fear, nothing to regret...
There was only unfiltered laughter, pure joy and shining eyes...

There is a friendship rooted in deep trust, a trust he will never break...

He grins mischievously as he frees the ball and throws it, a little further this time.

Cloud gave up the ball easily, hoping her friend would throw it again. When Raphael hugged her middle she twisted around to lick his neck, then leaned against him a bit.

Her eyes followed the ball as soon as it was thrown again and Cloud broke into a run, barking. She nearly crashed into a tree in her eagerness to get the ball but managed to avoid contact.

Only moments later she returned to Raphael, ball held securely between her teeth, head held high and tail wagging, ready to drop the ball into her friend's hand.

Raphael had chased after her at the last throw and when she brought the ball back he laughed again and playfully tackled her, dropping to his back with arms full of fur.

The leaves and brush stuck to his hair and clothes but he didn't care, only threw the ball again and feeling so very happy.

Cloud yelped when she was tackled and then started struggling, swatting at Raphael playfully. Playing with her friend was so much fun!

Then she raced after the ball again, this time managing to catch it before it even hit the floor, returning with her head held high in pride and her tail wagging madly.
