[ As for Lightning's puppy, TARGET SIGHTED. He pauses, stiff-legged in the snow while his brain works over the idea of HEY ANOTHER PUPPY, then finally lets out a single high-pitched bark before trudging to the end of his makeshift leash. Lightning simply stands for a moment too, watching, but then starts to walk in Arumat's direction as well, the puppy leading the way somewhat awkwardly. ]
