I won't soothe your pain
Rafael stood almost chest deep in the water legs braced as the current swirled around him, urging him forward. To the open space below. He took a few strides before, with a laugh that was snatched away by the wind, he suddenly threw himself over the edge and into the empty air. No, he was not suicidal; he was in it for the thrill. Besides, falling was the most fun he'd had in ages. With a large splash he landed in the pool of water, drenching any remaining dry parts of his pelt. He treaded water for a few moments before strong strokes brought him to the shore, where he broke through a thin layer of ice. He heaved himself back onto land and gave a full body shake, sending water droplets flying everywhere. Even so, the slight wind still sent a chill through him. Maybe jumping into the frigid water hadn't been the best of ideas, but it had been worth it for the brief moment of joy. Being alone really wasn't all it was cracked up to be.
I won't ease your strain
He moved to a patch of weak sunlight and let himself sink to the ground, ready to endure the boredom as he waited for his fur to dry in the sun. Already the need to move on was making him twitch; he very rarely stayed in one area for long these days. Mostly because he usually ended up in company he disliked. Same snide remarks about his size, same superior attitude. He preferred to avoid wolves like these, but it very rarely worked. Unless he moved on right away. Thinking something along these lines, Rafael was about to leap to his feet and take off, when he stopped himself. Perhaps this time would be different. He was going to risk it, at any rate.
