He was BOWING!
Kennedy slowly straightened his body until he was back to full height. This was so freaking AWESOME! He gripped the ferret a little tighter. He was so excited he wanted to do a victory jump, but if he that it might startle the hippogriff and get it angry. Yeah, he didn't want that.
He took a slow step forward and stopped when the creature clawed the ground. He took another step and the hippogriff did the same thing again. When he didn't move, the hippogriff clawed the ground and...
Did it just roll its eyes at him?
Ohohohooo!
It was hurrying Kennedy up. Well, if it wanted to be petted by Kennedy, they boy didn't need anymore signals. He was more than delighted to do so.
"Hey," he whispered lifting his hand to pet him.
Best thing to do was to probably wait for the hippogriff to walk towards him.
