Swiftcurrent Creek blood and beating hearts

I want you to be happy and now, I don't think you'll be able to find it here at the Creek. Danica shook her head. "No, I don't think so either. I had hoped... but it doesn't look that way." She looked north, to where she soon would be traveling. Perhaps to stay, if her conversation with Tuwawi went well. At least for a while she could reside with the new family, though who knew if that was where her travels would end.

His words made her look at him questioningly. So he was planning something? He made it sound as though he meant to build his own pack. It was a concept that Danica had considered once or twice... always to come to the conclusion that she far too unfit when dealing with other people's issues. Perhaps Shadow was better with that sort of thing. It made her somewhat sorry though... seemed this day was going to cost Bazi even more than she bargained for. She kept silent on it, though.

"I'm sure you will find other ways to amuse yourself in the meantime," she responded, winking suggestively. Her defense mechanism, it seemed, was to resort back to that sense of humor she normally cloaked her every response in. These heart to hearts weren't really her thing, but she was glad that she had gotten the chance to know where Shadow stood. And while she would have liked to see him stay here, it was really good to know that his position wasn't anything like Bazi's.
