[Ryou skids to a stop once he's faced with...basically a puzzle. He takes a moment to breathe, cool off, and take in his surroundings. Hmm...there's not that many places that the man could have gone, so this shouldn't be hard.
Ryou's nostrils flare as he takes in a deep breath, sampling the air. Hmm...he still smells you, Atem, and he glances up just to prove he does, though he has no intention of making a big deal. If Atem wasn't here, the human wouldn't be moving.
Furthermore, the human is pretty easy to find. Ryou doesn't even hesitate--he pads slowly towards the mailbox, still sniffing loudly. His nose is probably taking the fun out of this, but when you can smell prey a mile away...it's not unusual.
One paw presses against the base of the mailbox, testing its sturdiness, its stability. Atem would have chosen this hiding spot for a reason. Dumpster was too easy. Storm drain was too complicated--they'd both have to go underground. Why was this the best choice?]
