As Niamh explained herself, Clover listened. Really, it was the apology that mattered at the end of it all; Niamh knew, now, she had done wrong in that matter... and as she continued on, it seemed Niamh saw the light altogether. Frankly, she was a little bit relieved, and her youthful naivety made her feel inclined to simply just believe what Niamh was saying because she was being kind and apologetic both. There was still a part of her that was wary, though; it was a mechanism of self-defense in case Niamh was, for whatever reason, being dishonest. The more Niamh spoke, the more of a reasonable wolf she seemed to be. 

The outsider herself had done nothing but try and be a good friend, and it was this that made her be so untoward to Fiadh and to herself. But she was being a good friend to the wrong wolf, a wolf totally undeserving (in her opinion) of it. Clover liked that sort of loyalty, misplaced though it was, and hoped that now that she knew the truth she would shift it toward far more worthy of it, like Towhee, or her parents, or Raven, or Fi—shit, even Tegan! Well.. her family. 

Niamh was lucky she had caught her mother on a good day. Usually, she kicked ass first, asked questions, well, never. 

And then, the she-wolf referred to Tit as Screech, a very, very fitting name, she thought snarkily to herself, and as she spoke of him being the underdog Clover listened, though she had her own opinion on the whole thing. Screech being the underdog was his own choice. He had left them long ago, and who knew what shady shit he'd been up to thereafter. He lost an eye, and Clover had no doubt that he must have done something bad to have earned that

But that she determined if she had known she would not have run the same road as him? Clover interpreted her statement as to mean she would no longer be hanging out with him, and it was this that caused her to desire to give Niamh a chance. She would have to discuss it with Fiadh, of course... Niamh was not what she had expected, that was for sure. 

He's pretty shitty. The truth has set you free, she said with a little smile. I guess you're not so bad after all, she determined after a beat, her tail waving a little.
