Heron Lake Plateau And I've spent half of my life in the customer service line

since Ambrose is ppc, skippin ahead!

Lucky for Colt, once it was goin, the bear didn't bother stopping.  He didn't close in far enough to pose an immediate threat anyway; just enough to spur retreat.  He chased the thing a solid length before wheeling around and breathlessly jogging back.

The instant he came in view, he let out a low rumble and came immediately over to Niamh, checking her over.  The fuck she was doin taking on a bear without calling for backup was beyond him, but he couldn't really be mad; he was just glad she seemed (mostly?) sound.
