Lost in the snow..., ISO: Malique / Nolan

Oh now! How could this happen? Malique was near frantic as her clawed through the white snow. Somehow his pendant had fallen somewhere and was now buried below sheets of white. He had to find it, of course, it meant far too much to just leave it.

Nolan was taking an afternoon walk, it being one of his days off he decided why not enjoy it? Though, eventually he came to rest his sights on... a large cat? No, a boy.. but a cat... How.. How utterly unique! Nolan liked cats, though this cat-boy seemed to be in distress. Wonder what is wrong?

Time: Winter 21st, Afternoon - Tag: Nolan - Notes: Really sorry 'bout the delay! ><;

The woods seemed pretty peaceful today, but honestly, Malique wasn't at all motivated to go outside earlier when the sun had risen. As he would've rathered hibernated for the entire winter, much like a bear, and simply skip the entire cold season. But he could still hear the few remnants of the wildlife that lived here, and he knew he was going to have to go out there sooner or later. Especially since he was getting hungry... So when he did end up emerging out of his home, his hissed under his breath the moment he felt the cold. And begrudgingly truged forward in the snow towards the eastern part of the woods, though what he could've possibly hoped to find over there, even he wasn't sure.

Whatever it was, he must've figured it was to be found somewhere here. Which while he seemingly wandered aimlessly about amongst the trees for the next few hours, out of habit, his hand reached up for the object he normally carried with him on his neck. Only to realize that he could feel nothing there. The very second he noticed it was no longer around his neck, did he suddenly shout at the top of his lungs. Scaring off whatever animals were still within the area. "No! It can't be gone!" Being driven into a panic, he instantly dove for the nearest patch of snow, and was clawing at it like a mad person. Throwing snow in every possible direction behind him as he desperately searched for the pendant. He had to find it!

Obviously, not thinking straight was getting him nowhere with this, as he only managed to wear himself out, and still with no necklace to be found. With one final angry kick at the snow, he slumped down against a nearby tree. Malique's anger and frustration had ebbed somewhat, but he was still plenty upset. Growling and muttering things to himself under his breath as his tail lashed about beside him. "Guess I messed up again..." Was the only thing that was audible, which he muttered rather gloomily as he said it.

How could he have possibly lost it? This had never happened to him before, and he was positive he had it not that long ago. Despite his anger, he felt pretty crappy right now, like as if a part of him died inside. It was too important to just leave here, he needed to find it. Right now. Luckily, with being this stubborn, he managed to force himself back up. And began to continue his frantic digging in the snow.

This had to be the worst day ever...
