As soon as Phox volunteered, she knew her subtle- or not so subtle- hinting had worked. Of course, he might not have been her first choice to send, as she didn’t exactly know how cool he could be under pressure. Thus far, though, he’d seemed fairly calm- almost sullen. Niamh was more used to wolves who listened so that they could speak, rather than listening for the sake of letting the other wolf talk, so she’d been pleasantly surprised by Phox. Niamh quite enjoyed talking, and it probably showed- but he didn’t even look like he was tiring of it, or that he minded the attention whatsoever. He was simply more of the quiet type, she decided, but that wasn’t necessarily bad in the company of a pack of wolves who were avid talkers.
”In a day or two, sure,” She commented agreeably. ”Give you some time to settle in, sure, before we start flinging you at other packs,” She said, and chuckled softly. She gazed off, as he had, in the direction of the Shadewood, and her lips pulled into a gentle frown. Sending a stranger to do a job she normally would have done could be tricky, but at the same time, Phox seemed calm enough that he could possibly do the job. All she wanted was information, she didn’t want to deliver any threats or make them feel as though it was a ‘move or die’ sort of situation. Had Niamh elected to go herself, she would have had to try quite hard to avoid doing something like that.
She motioned for them to walk, but paused, remembering the rabbit he’d stored away. ”Why don’t we bring that back to the pack, an’ I’ll fill you in on deets on the way?” She volunteered, keen to get him spending more time at least closer to the pack, and to get his kill back where it would be safe inside the pack’s borders. At least he was a capable hunter, and he had the instinct to bury something once he’d caught it, so their caches would be well stocked if he kept putting himself to the task of hunting.
