Redtail Rise A rose by any other name

     Saena was in a tizzy, and just like that Mrs. Fix-It swooped in to save the day and the raggedy wolf's ass.  Reek listened in awkward silence as Wynter corrected his verbal shortcomings, which made him relax a bit.  When she sat down beside Reek, he rested his head against hers as he took a deep breath to try and regain composure.  "I fucking love you, you know that?"  Reek said, pushing into Wynter with an affectionate nudge.  Damn sap.  Whatever would he do without her to fix his verbal vomit.

    "Let's start over," Reek began with a slight chuckle. "Hey Saena, How are you? I'm having a splendid day.  Did you hear the news?  Me and Wyn are a thing and I'm ecstatic about it.  We haven't done the thing... yet."  Reek's uncomfortable smile began to twist into something more and more genuine as he became more comfortable.  "But we want to... So yeah, that's why we're here.  What says you Saena?" He concluded with a terse grin.  The last thing he wanted to do was lose Saena's respect so soon, especially so trivial for a verbal flub.
