[I bet you can jump it! Try!] he says gleefully.

[Harley! Harley Harley Harley are you okay call the princess tell her to fix you Harley Harley,] whines Zeus, digging his claws into the earth to arrest his movement and doubling back. [Or I can, I'll do it, PRINCESS - did that do it - how does it work -]

[What's the matter?]

Zeus sits hard on the ground, tail between his legs, and howls.

[I hit a tree and Zeus is sad!]

Elspeth tries a healing pentagon. [Did that do it?] she asks.

She spends another. She doesn't bother admonishing him to be careful.

Zeus makes another whining noise and noses at him. [Are you sure? All better, honest? You could've died! I shouldn't've jumped it.]

"I'm fine," he promises, hugging Zeus around the neck and kissing his wolfy nose. "And no I couldn't, I'm immortal! It was fun."

Zeus flops onto the ground. [But you could've died if you weren't immortal!]

"But I am immortal," he says, "and I didn't die anyway, I just broke some bones, Elsie fixed me up fine, it was fun, I'm fine, it's fine!"

Zeus can make some very impressively whiny noises in wolf form.

Harley gives him scritches. It just seems like the thing to do.

Zeus lays his massive head down on the ground and accepts scritches, making dismayed whuffly sounds.

"Awwwwwwww," says Harley. "I'm sorry you got scared."

[How was it fun?]

"I liked the jumping over the river part! And I've never been hurt that bad before, it was really - itself. I think I wanna do it again," he says consideringly. "But not with you if you're gonna get scared." Snuggle-hug!

[You wanna do it again?] asks Zeus incredulously.

Harley giggles. "Yeah."

[You are a weirdo. I know I'd heal with or without magic if I got beat up like that and I still don't wanna try it.]

"I am a weirdo!" he agrees happily.
