teeth grated against the bone uncomfortably, and a brief flash of hurt erupted somewhere in hum gum when a sliver of bone became lodged there. face twisted, and she attempted to work the piece free with her tongue. a moment passed without success and she resigned herself to it remaining there when Aditya arrived, fresh kill hanging from his maw.
a brief flash of guilt at eating what should surely go towards the nursing mothers (or Shale) before remembering that the pups were weaned, now, the mothers out with the rest of the pack. he dropped the kill; yet sat, seemingly not going to leave as he had last time. despite herself, smile curved her lips in the slightest. "not quickly enough." gaze slid back to the rear limb that still jutted out awkwardly from where she lay, the wound there mangled and torn. infection threatened constantly, but nothing serious had yet taken hold.
mind flashed to the last time she'd been den-bound this long, the simplicity of her and Aditya. something sour rose up in the back of her throat. "I don't know how to deal with Loir." she offered, then grimaced. she wanted something else to focus on, yet the words sounded calloused. "she's - upset, because - I don't know that either." brow creased, sourness sinking back a bit but lingering as her mind shifted to when he'd left quickly as soon as she'd started to cry.
