Tracking Down ToddThere was a certain air of anxiety around a Hunter with no pet. A long-range fighter like Nymune needed an animal companion to keep her opponents' attention, not only while she took aim but especially when she needed to reload her blunderbuss. So far she had managed to avoid facing anything head-on by climbing trees and using her aspect of nature--a trait that came naturally to an elf--to blend into the foliage.Still, she was anxious.The humid jungle air was cloying, like syrup.

Not intended to be yaoi, but interpret it how you wish. :shrug: I tend to think father/son when writing about Gaav and Val, myself... :giggle:Author's Note/Disclaimer: One, I don't own Slayers or anybody in it, including Valgaav and Gaav.
