Redtail Rise allow me to congratulate you

Luke's joking put Saena in an even better mood, if that was possible. Despite their brief chat about Fox and what an evil witch she was (isn't that what Luke said?), their conversation remained light-hearted. She was grateful for that, though she knew it was his preference to keep things light. He assured her there was no rush on romance and she nodded her understanding. Saena didn't think she would ever fall in love, having had no more than a passing crush once in her life while both her sisters hooked up with their respective beaus, but she didn't say it, for at that moment the blue-nosed jokester planted a lick on her cheek and darted away.

She almost went after him, even poised one foot in the air as though to chase him, but in the end she remained where she was and grinned. She waved her short tail vigorously, hoping he could understand it was her own farewell, and as Luke's pale figured began fading into the distance, she called out, "you better come tell me as soon as your pack settles!"
