Poor boy. This can end or go on for as long as you'd like.  I imagine Ukko would stick around Scarlett as long as it was safe for him to be there/as long as she wants him to.

Scarlett pulls away from him, going as far as to sit up out of his touch.  His ears fall back and he’s worried his done something to offend her when she quietly croaks out an explanation.  Ukko whimpers and puts his head on the ground in a silent apology.  He’d only wanted to help, wanted to soothe the wounds across her body.  Looking at her hurt him and he feels a sickness in his stomach that he hadn’t been able to get out there soon enough.  She shouldn’t have been outside the pack on her own, anyway.

The rabbit goes ignored, for the time being, and she eventually speaks up.  Ukko wants to shuffle back to her, wrap around her once more to keep her warm, but he remains on the ground—afraid he’ll hurt her again.

“Of course,” he tells her with a nod.  He hadn’t seen her children since first meeting Sesi and Desna. Nanook still hasn’t come across his path but, with his new goal in mind, he’ll temporarily forget his struggle with the leadership and seek out her children.
