Rose smiled as Carl left the room. She took another look at the study around her, checking out various items in the room. Until a soft noise from outside the door caught her attention.
The Huntsclan apprentice barely had time to turn around before a mass of fur almost knocked her to the ground. The girl gave a shocked expression; before realizing that the animal was nothing more than a excited dog, which seemed happy to have met Rose.
Before she reacted, the dog suddenly spoke, making her even more baffled; until she caught sight of the glowing collar that the animal had around it's neck. Rose studied it for a moment.
'The Huntsmaster might want to think about getting these, for those magical creatures...' She thought, before grinning kindly at the dog.
The dog was apparently over-joyed to have met 'a new friend' and that he liked her because she smelled of Carl. Rose tried not to look dis-pleased at being licked on the cheek [she had never found that appealing much], but hugged the adorable dog, before setting him on the floor, and gave him a friendly pet.
"You can talk, huh?" She gently asked, before adding, "I'm Rose, who are you?"

Dug's tail whirled around and around, loving every second of being hugged and petted by the girl; such simple things brought infinite pleasure to a dog, Dug being far from an exception. Despite his exuberance, he obediently allowed Rose to lower his paws down to the floor, but continued to gaze up at her with that unchanging canine grin.
"Yes!" he began to respond as she gently nudged him off of her lap, "My old master made me this collar, so that I may talk to humans! He was very good and smart, but he is not my master anymore... I have a new master, though! He is very good and very smart and very nice, and I live with him here in this flying house. I did not know houses could fly before I went here!"
The dog babbled on and on without a movement from his mouth, except for a single lick of his lips to remove a crumb of a past meal from his whiskers, and his bright eyes wandered around the room in intervals. He spoke in a voice that, frankly... didn't sound terribly bright. The words were spaced apart from one another, as if it took a while to comprehend each one, but each word spoken had plenty of emotion in it. Even if he could speak English (among at least ten other languages), Dug was still only a dog, and thought just as any dog thinks.

Eventually, Carl returned to the room, carrying a simple tray with various fruits in a bowl and a few dishes of ice cream of different flavors. He watched every step he made as he re-entered the study and set the tray on a table near the guest.
"I didn't know what kind of ice cream you like, so I got a few different flavors." After he set the tray down, he straightened himself. As he stretched, his back made a few cracking noises. "Uuurgh," he exhaled, following an 'oh, well!' kind of chuckle. He turned and faced Rose and his beloved pet, Dug.
"I see you met Dug," he said, pointing to the overweight canine. "He's a handful, ain't he?" He meant that lovingly, of course, and signified this by stroking the top of Dug's head. When Carl remembered something, he snapped his attention to the girl. "Oh. Forgot to give you this." He reached into his pocket and pulled out the hood that Rose was wearing prior to being treated. He extended his hand, offering the mask to her.
"Be careful the next time you play ninjas and robbers, all right?" His bushy eyebrows furrowed.

The teenager didn't know what to say; here she was, with a talking dog opposite her. All she could do was smile, as she wasn't put out by this sudden event, as the dog seemed friendly enough, and Rose liked most animals [believe it or not.] Her expression was one of interest as Dug told her how his old owner had made him the collar, but now Carl was his new owner. Her eyes widened as he mentioned the house could 'fly.'
"Fly? If I may, what do you mean by that?" Rose began to ask, before she noticed Carl coming back into the room with a tray of fruits and ice-cream. She smiled as he told her he'd brought a few flavors as he didn't know what she liked. "Thanks," Rose replied gratefully, and then looked to Dug as Carl mentioned him. "He's very friendly...its amazing that he can talk with that collar device."
She gave the dog a friendly expression, before her face became serious as Carl revealed the mask she'd been wearing prior to her black-out. Taking the mask gently, she quickly managed to stuff it into a pocket in her tunic. "Oh, thanks for keeping it. I thought I'd lost it." Rose made sure the garment was tucked away, before turning back to the elderly man. "I will be careful, I'm sorry I caused you so much trouble." Her face became one of guilt as Rose realized how careless she'd been at worrying someone like that.

Carl's blue, bespectacled eyes remained on Rose. He rested his hands on his hips after he returned the mask to the teenage girl. "Well, you learned your lesson," he said to her. "So next time you'll be more careful!" He smiled, winked, and turned to look down to the dog. "How do you like our guest, Dug?" He asked with a light, playful tone.
