"Give it back, Sol!" Danny moaned, tugging at the heavy medical tome his familiar had clamped between his powerful jaws. "Dr. Gupta's going to kill me if you slobber all over it!"

The tiger snorted, twisting his head about to avoid the boy's grasping hands. Their little "game", which Sol had been thoroughly delighting in, had managed to mess up the boy's normally careful appearance beyond repair. His hair stood up at all angles and his nose was coated in dust and grime. His cheek bore a slim scratch just beneath his left eye that bled just a sliver, a result of a tricky branch. His clothes were mussed and dirty, particularly along the knees where he'd crawled after Solarius through cramped passageways, and leaving no sign of the fastidiously clean and tidy young boy so often seen around the Castle.

Danny, finally getting a firm grip on the book, tugged with all of his strength, setting his feet in determination. So, of course, it was that moment that Sol decided to release the book and, with the sudden lack of resistance, the boy went tumbling. Down the hill he went, end over and, until he finally plopped to a stop right at the feet of... His eyes widened, growing several times larger in his dirty, upturned face. Sol, chasing after him, blundered into his back, completely oblivious of the seriousness of the matter and pitched him face-first into the grass. Clutching the book to his chest (he wasn't about to let it out of his sight for even a second), Danny shoved Solarius aside and scrambled to his feet as quickly as he could. He gulped, belatedly catching what she'd just said. She was looking for him? WHY?! He tried to think back over the last few days, desperate to remember what he could have possibly done to get himself in trouble with Allianah of all people. But he was usually a very good boy, and he'd spent so much of his time helping Gupta with the injured soldiers he'd hardly had time to do anything naughty. In fact, today was the first day off he'd had in... longer than he cared to remember. Still, Danny bowed hurriedly, his nose nearly knocking his knees with how far he bent over.

"M-me," the boy hesitated, his expression uncertain. What term should he use?! Sitt or...? Oh, gods above, Allianah was not the one to be disrespectful to, even by accident! Much to his relief, Khase's voice rose to mind with an appropriate response. "Me, seba'iqer, I'm Danny."

Horrified to suddenly recall how disheveled and unkempt he must appear, Danny hurriedly tugged at his shirt and flattened his hair, flushing a bright shade of pink. Solarius peeked out from behind the boy, his rounded ears flattened against his head in embarrassment and uncertainty.
