Redhawk Caldera I'm on my dumb shit

Perhaps this was the beginning of Killdeer having his ass saved by strong women. Either way, it was probably good that they showed up when they did. First a large brown woman who reminded him of Towhee, surging forward to take the wolverine head-on. And then—

Oh, yeah, it was one of the older kids—like, Caracal's sister or something? She came, too, and Killdeer watched as she inserted herself between himself and the fray. Guarding him.

He should be grateful. Instead, his curiosity got the better of him, and, irritated, he shoved past her to stare down the wolverine with gimlet eyes.

WADDAYOUWANT?! he demanded loudly, baring his teeth.

In response, the wolverine writhed within Aliana's grasp, jaws snapping in desperate effort to get to the vulnerable pup—well, now pair of pups.
