Redhawk Caldera Woes vs. whoas

I am mercilessly power-playing a bunch of characters in the background (Peregrine, Ferret, Gannet and @Gavriel). I was hoping that anyone who hadn't hopped into her other thread might nab this one! @Fox? @Finley? @Whip? @Jackrabbit? :)

It had rained all night, leaving puddles of various sizes all over the ground near the caldera's western border. Wildfire watched, grinning, as two of her little brothers frolicked in one of the larger pools. Peregrine sat next to her, keeping an eye on things even as the two of them conversed. There was still a lot of catching up to do and this was the last day before the yearling began the trip back, with one last stop-off before she and Gavriel landed back at Sleeping Dragon.

"Are you really not going to tell me her name?" Peregrine was teasing in her ear, giving her a fond side-eye. Wildfire swallowed and looked around, spotting Gavriel lurking nearby, possibly within earshot. She then canted her head toward her father and replied coyly, "Someday." She wondered how much her guardian might have overheard, if anything at all, and knew she would surely find out when they eventually made their way back to the taiga. "Just know that it's very new and I'm very happy."

"All right, all right," her father ceased and desisted, for now. Wildfire suspected he would probably badger her again before they said their final goodbyes, though for the moment, Ferret offered an effective distraction as he sent a wall of muddy water in their direction.
