Phoenix Maplewood I never knew such reforming zeal

Citali's answer was as literal as they came. Saena's expression was almost blank as she regarded the chocolate healer, waiting for the punchline that never came. Only the barest hint of bemusement made itself known before the other wolf explained that she was patrolling. Ah. That was the answer the alpha was looking for, and she couldn't suppress a giggle when Citali asked if that was right.

"Close enough," she said with a grin. "What's up is an expression too. They all mean "how are you"." Maybe next time she would just be literal, too, and then there wouldn't be any confusion whatsoever. "Seen anything interesting on patrol?" she wondered, having seen nothing of the sort herself. Phoenix Maplewood was pretty secluded, and if anyone or anything had any designs on it, they hadn't made themselves known yet. There were predators around, to be sure, but active wolves were enough to keep them behaving... for now.
