The Sentinels If you don't care for it

The girl pointed out that Osprey was not specifically her friend and rather than feeling offended or hurt, the elder had to agree to the child's logic. No, she was not and had not made an attempt to change the situation either up until now. The term "friend" in general could mean two different things - as if friendly to pack members or sharing a deeper bond, based on mutual liking and trust. The Epsilon was very eager to step over that line of the first category and enter the second. The more time she spent in the girl's company, the more she liked her and wished to be liked in return. 

When the girl took the courage to draw a little nearer, Osprey lowered her head again, to give the cub a sense of "superiority" (even if the size difference was still remarkable) and with her tail wagging in a playful manner, she asked: "Do you want me to become your friend?"
