Lost Creek Hollow as the river flows

Hey, it was all true.  Lying was way too much effort for her -- bending the truth a little would be ok, but when the truth would do fine, no point screwing with an easily remembered and easily provable thing.

Treason herself found that whole congrats for being able to breed thing kind of weird.  Maybe she was thinking about it too analytically but she was pretty sure just about any wolf would be able to do it -- so what was the big deal?  It wasn't like they fought off a cougar or something.  Whatever.  Society was kind of weird but she'd play along with its whims, as that was far easier than questioning them.  She dipped her head politely, Thank you.

Moving on to something less awkward... Good.  I think you'll find Gannet is quite an agreeable sort, and eager to learn.  He doesn't usually wander far, so I expect you'll cross paths while settling in. And if she ran across him first, she'd mention it.  However there wasn't going to be too much time between now and when she probably saw one of them next, thanks other thread, so we'll see how that goes!

So welcome to the pack, she said, stepping back as if to invite him across.  It wasn't like there was an invisible doorway she was blocking, it just seemed more.. Invitation-like?
