[ He hears the man approaching, but all he can do is try to stifle his moans. His entire body aches and burns, cramps worsened by the rapidness of the change. He wants to thrash with pain. It will draw attention, though, so he tries to be still.
No use. That twig snaps and he snarls, trying to push himself up on all fours, except his limps aren't right, and his nose feels dull. His eyes swim, unfocused and heavy as he pants, trying to focus on the figure.
The words come slowly, like they're far away and muffled. He's still for a long moment, struggling to keep himself propped on his arms. If it had been someone else who found him, they very well may have taken him for a monster, bloodied and scarred, snarling and panting.
But, at last, he nods once, ears back and shoulders tense, but making no move toward aggression. Something feels off. He shouldn't have changes this fast, and his mind and senses are reeling trying to catch up, but he doesn't feel like whatever it is is dangerous, and so he doesn't bolt. Not that he'd get very far on this half-changed body. ]
