Redhawk Caldera I'm an Albatraoz

Oops! I only just heard of the song today, I thought it was new or something!

Saena only had to wait a grand total or ten or fiften minutes before a familiar black figure was making its way toward her. She swallowed thickly, pushing down the old feeling of abandonment that threatened to crawl up her throat. The last thing she wanted to do after calling Peregrine down was give him a blast of her attitude. While there were several wolves who believed that she was incapable of anything but attitude, there were many more who knew her better, and in spite of the chasm between them, she intended for Peregrine to remain one of them.

Her brows creased when he called out to her, and at his shouted expletive, her ears pressed back nervously. She couldn't help casting a look over her shoulder. She didn't know why, but she half-expected to see some huge hulking bear behind her, something to explain Peregrine's concern, but all she saw was her artificial bob tail. It took her a full thirty seconds to realize that was what he was so worked up about.

"Oh, it's nothing," she said, waving away any worry even as Peregrine pulled up alongside her. "Sacrificed it to get away from a mad dog," she explained concisely. If he needed details, then Saena could offer them, but she'd taken to telling the story in a single sentence to avoid retelling it too many times. It'd worked for her so far, although this time, she didn't joke about it being eaten. Somehow she didn't think Peregrine would find that as humorous as other wolves did, and he certainly wouldn't appreciate her finding it humorous (if only to stave off the disgust).

Saena was silent for a long while, even as Peregrine expectantly waited on her. It took her some time, but she swallowed again and then quietly said, "I came to apologize."
