OOC: *tears of joy*
After her own line of question, she had fallen silent again more so to keep her voice from trembling further. But she was frightened, truly, having never believed that such things could ravage their kind. It made her realize just how painfully ignorant she was when it came to the health of others. She would not have thought such things were important to consider. Not unless there was a visible ailment to assess. Clearly she had been wrong.
Her muzzle remained tightly clasped as she listened. The list of symptoms continued seemingly endlessly… until the latter of them evoked a slight tilt of her head. “Pardon?” Fear gave way for the furrow of her brows, then a gradual smoothing as his diagnosis was received by eager ears.
For a moment, the Alpha sat in her silence, replaying all his symptoms as if in them she would find sense. But as she had never experienced this before with any other female, she had nothing to relate to determine of what he concluded was true. She had only his word to go on… and what happy words they were for her to hear! “I am?!” she whined while hopping to her feet. Her tail raised in a frenzy, striking both sides of her hips as she made a little turn of unbridled excitement. She was smiling, wholly, unabashedly smiling as she looked to the pale healer. “I am!” Without hesitation, she all but plowed into the Lecter, but was mindful enough of his age to keep her full strength at bay. Ignoring the scent of his pelt, she buried her nose against his nap in unyielding gratitude, tongue wagging and voice high with glee as she shared her excitement. |
