Ankyra Sound holding out for a hero

As if sent from the heavens food suddenly arrived in front of him. Eljay blinked, though his first gut reaction was to simply go and grab it without pause. The only thing that gave him pause was the familiar voice that came with it and an ear turned towards it before he looked up to see Ty there. He didn't remember the rest of her name, but he remembered she was named Ty and that maybe he should've just gone with her to start with... Eljay wasn't sure what was up in Drageda but he hadn't seen Wildfire in quite a while and was worried for that, as well as starting to think he might never get into the pack anyway.

Normally he would've rejected such offerings but Eljay realised how poorly he was doing and he wanted nothing more than to survive. Many months ago he had almost welcomed death, when he had spared food from his mouth during and after the famine while mommy was gone, but now he was not helping anyone by not eating. He was just... really bad at hunting small game, and he got worse every day he didn't eat. "Thank you," Eljay said, shame resonating in his voice that he couldn't even care for himself properly but he didn't deny the food. He grabbed the rabbit between his front paws and started to eat it quickly, glad he had something to focus on except his own failure for now.
