Swiftcurrent Creek Lost and Confused

Powerplaying Serengeti in this one. We can finish up whenever you like.

He’d changed the treatment he’d initially given to Jace because he had no interest in unintentionally poisoning himself without the river at hand to rinse his mouth. This time he would have no need to be so delicate and he got straight to work on the neck wound he deemed priority.

Razo snorted at the words he was hearing, then twitched his lip at the taste left in his mouth between poultice applications when he’d finished with the fresh neck laceration. You can’t possibly be trying to convince me that you aren’t a threat and at the same time that what happened was beyond your control. If it happens again and it’s beyond your control you’re still a threat, he assured the bloody mess of wolf. I gave you a perfectly good explanation for what happened. Either take it and lean on it as a legitimate medical cause or find someone else’s shoulder to sob on.

Severe yellow eyes lingered on him for a moment longer before setting to work on his re-opened shoulder, which he observed had already been meticulously cleaned. His jaws worked efficiently as mortar and pestle and he sloppily slathered the wound when he was finished, pressing on it with his nose for good measure. Wait a few minutes for these to dry out, he instructed. After something like this it’s good practice to bathe in cold water, bask in the sun and repeat as you like. Your sore muscles will thank you.

Not a moment later Razo stepped out of the way and was watching as Serengeti returned with the dishevelled, dead pheasant he’d asked her to retrieve. She approached and dropped the bird at her own feet, then gripped the carcass between the ground and her dextrous paws and proceeded to begin ripping a large section of its plumage away. Ferdie didn’t need to be spoon-fed, but he didn’t need to spend his energy on something so menial that she could do effortlessly. When a significant number of feathers lay scattered and blowing faintly in the breeze, she nosed the meat towards him.
