Dawnlark Plains Sang the jelly bean prayer

The sounds of some kind of excitement distracted Saena from prancing around with one of Luke's hard-won eggs and she turned to watch, slack-jawed, as Esaro and Grace attempted a stunt that ought to have been impossible. In fact, Saena knew that climbing a tree was literally not possible for a wolf, yet somehow Grace managed to not only climb atop Esaro without breaking his back but got herself stuck in the tree as well. She didn't notice that her jaws had literally fallen open until the egg splattered against her paw, mucking it in a mix of yolk and clear goop.

Understandably mistrustful of Grace's otherworldly ability to climb wolves and trees with a bum leg, Saena frowned, then turned her head and muttered for only Luke to hear, "get a load of these idiots." She knew Esaro was naive beyond belief sometimes, but she encouraged the man to improve himself and focus on something that would build his confidence. Unfortunately, he had a spectacular habit of letting others down, and his plan made him look like a total fool. He was somewhat harmless, at least, or so Saena believed. Grace, on the other hand, was someone Saena intended to keep an eye on, because now she was doubtful that the bum leg really was a bum leg, and was questioning quite seriously whether Grace had lied about it to get into the pack on a pity vote.

Putting these thoughts from her head, the alpha female bent her head to lap up what she could of the egg, shooting Luke and whoever else might be nearby an incredulous look in the process.
