Redhawk Caldera Luck be a lady

"But --" Pantaleimon looked at Roz, but then he realised that there was no fighting this; she was going to leave him, even if he kicked and screamed or passed out right there and then. Pan looked briefly at the ground and then at Roz while, with a painful expression in his eyes, he said, "Bye..." He wanted to plead her to stay again, but then decided against it; it was no use. Maybe their paths would cross again some day, and maybe not.

Pantaleimon smiled softly but wearily at Perry's worried behaviour and just let the nibbles and nips wash over him, returned with a single nuzzle once Roz departed. It was so good to be home. "I ate something," Pan said, taking a pause to avoid another fit of coughs from his sore throat. "-- Bad. Roz found me." And without her, Pan wasn't quite sure where he would be.
