Sleeping Dragon wake up, mr. west!

Suspicious had he been, but, apparently, it'd not been without a valid reason. She'd admitted to having gone swimming by herself, a confession that had led to him frowning at her. The dangers of doing so had been shared already, and yet she herself had done the exact thing that he'd been warned away from! Hvit wanted to be upset with her, but the only emotion that he could muster was relief. Despite the dangers, nothing had happened to her; he was glad about this, too, for he knew not what he would have done had anything happened to her. Each of his sisters held a special place in his heart, but if at any point he'd be made to select a favourite, it was sure to be Freyja.

It was understood that she only wanted to keep him safe, which he wasn't upset about. A mistake had been made when she'd chosen to swim all alone, but now they both knew of the dangers, and so neither would do so again. With her words accepted, he'd drawn closer and offered a wolf-y hug, which more or less consisted of him briefly shoving his face into the crook of her neck. "Won't go alone," the boy said as he pulled away, assuring her that he'd respect the buddy system. Of course, he also felt inclined now to always keep an eye on her, just in case she gave into temptation.
