Tiresias was getting rather handsome, although he would never know it. Were he human, the shepherd mix would probably be one of those "geek" type males who spend all of their time puffing inhalers and playing chess, but get noticed by every girl the second that they have to clean a smudge on their glasses. However, since he was not of that species, he remained just another blissfully unaware attractive male who had many more important things on their mind than trying to get the attention of females around. For example, training his body and his mind.
The mind training was something that Tiresias took part in frequently and easily. He knew a hundred games off of the top of his head that would be able to strengthen his brain, and if any of those should fail him in the ways of boredom he could always concoct another one at the drop of the hat. Nine times out of ten, the only thing that was stopping him from dreaming up another game was that Tybalt and the few other reluctant dogs who would play with him probably weren't up to learning yet another set of rules. So therefore he contented himself with the same old games.
Body training, however, was something to which Tiresias was fairly knew. He only allowed himself to do such things upon realizing that without a set of bodyguards, his delicate body was liable to serious harm, especially at the paws of his brother Niklaus. Tiresias knew that he would never be able to beat Klaus when it came to strength, but he knew that he could be quicker than the tuxedo dog. If his mind was sharper, then his movements could be as well. Tiresias would become the viper to his brother's python, darting around to get a bite while his brother aimed for a clunky kill.
But all of that required training. Heavy training. So Tiresias allowed himself to go on runs through uncharted areas of the cities, thundering about and leaping, ducking, evading everything in sight. He never took the same route twice, that would be cheating. So today he was navigating around the city spring, leaping and bounding, twisting and turning. It had been ten minutes already before his paw caught on a stone wall and he fell to the ground with a thud. "Damn," the dog muttered to himself before bending over to lick the wound. Considering his already compromised immune system, infection was terrible.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
