[This is pure gold. Cater would have expected to be the one collared and leashed (would overall enjoy it, even if he's not into the overall exhibitionist angle of the park) and leaping to Riddle's every command...but maybe next time. Riddle's clearly not upset by playing the role, so Cater's going to enjoy himself. It's only so hard to force himself not to take any photos.]
You know I will, Riddle. You're such a good boy, after all.
[He winks, grinning merrily. Cater's the kind of dog that might need a firm hand now and again to keep him on task, but Riddle? So obedient, so well-trained!]
So, what sounds fun to you, buddy? A nice walk around the park?
[Performatively giving Riddle's leash the most gentle of tugs (and barely suppressing a giggle as he does), Cater moves toward the trail that leads around the perimeter of the dog park, taking an easy pace to keep them side-by-side.]
Think you'll make some doggy friends you can play nice with? See any that look promising?

Well-trained and obedient, however... Cater may be in for a surprise. He isn't the old Riddle after all.
And it's strange to hear Cater referring to him so casually. Strange... but not uncomfortable.]
A walk sounds lovely.
[He'll even wait for Cater to take the first step, following at his side.]
