Whitewater Gorge An Unexpected Party

tossing nirali at you instead <3 tag for ref, but east is welcome too!!

She wanders from @Eastwood to hunt, half-tempted to invite him along but far too restless to be slowed down today, and more in the mood for her own company than another's. Regardless of what he says, she's certain he still has some ways to go with his recovery anyway, and food is important. Mostly because she's hungry — but she is trying to take her responsibilities as his caretaker seriously, too.
Trying being the key word, of course. It's not long before she finds herself distracted by the scenery — then by the scent of a wolf. Her thoughts drift briefly to the last time she'd sought a moment alone — and the time before that, and the time before that... point being, this place might be a little overpopulated for her tastes. But, as usual, she can't resist the tug of curiosity, and finds herself trailing the scent after a few moments of indecision. She spots the pale figure fairly quickly, immediately intrigued by the pattern of his coat even from a distance, and chuffs to catch his attention as she nears him. He smells of others, though not so many that he seems a pack wolf — which really just makes her more curious. Hopefully he'll be less moody than the last guy she met.
