The acceptance process had gone smoothly and for that, she was strangely thankful. Once she had at least the beginnings of a feel for the place, she would be a tad more eager to take up Ferdie's offer for meeting others (as well as seeing the hawk) and nodded for now. Inwardly, she was still reeling from now having an allegiance to speak of. It was a strange sensation and not exactly in line with her expectations for today. However, it was for the best.

Fox said nothing further and took her leave. Ame had no other matters to press her about, anyway, so lent her full attention to Ferdie then. She had let her posture relax and her head lift up just some but was still mindful -- now, Ferdie was technically a superior of hers and Ame realized that she did not even know his actual place amongst the Creek's rankings. Lead the way? she asked, swishing her tail once more as well.
