Swiftcurrent Creek summertime blues

Thanks for joining this! I was worried it would never get a reply. :)

A short, small howl returned her own after a brief interlude, and Fox's ears perked up. It wasn't one she immediately recognized, but after some time the tiny Star came bounding into view. Fox still couldn't get over how incredibly miniscule the wolf was, nor could she quite believe that Star was full-grown. And yet, she spoke and acted as an adult, so it was the only conclusion Fox could make.

“Hey, tiny Star,” Fox greeted, her tail swaying gently behind her. “You getting settled in okay?” While the yearling wasn't usually much for smalltalk, she did know it was important that her pack-mates felt welcome. And if they had any issues... well, Fox could direct them to somebody else, because she sure wasn't the right wolf to talk anybody through anything.
