[Though the lick surprised him, it wasn't unwelcome. RED gave the dog a smile and another pat on the head.]
Good dog.
[With that, he started the long walk toward his townhouse, keeping an eye on where Chibi was. There wasn't anything obviously wrong with the dog, but he couldn't shake the feeling something was off. Surely the pup wouldn't have been barking so frantically on his call, otherwise.
He was quiet the whole walk, struggling to keep himself composed as his arm and leg throbbed painfully. After struggling up the stairs to the porch, he pushed the front door open and waited for Chibi to follow him in before collapsing on the couch, his breath labored. At least the house hadn't changed at all in his absence.]
