Redhawk Caldera But I can't fight anymore for you

She was surprised when he turned down what she had assumed to be a compromise on her own part, and sounded a little upset by it. She didn't move from where she was though. She'd assumed that his hesitance would mean he'd rather make some sort of deal out of it, but for her, sooner was even better. She didn't care how they did it so long as it was done.

I thought... she started to try to find an explanation, but then decided it didn't matter. Nevermind. I'm totally fine telling everyone. And.... well. Honestly, she wasn't sure how they'd take it, but she didn't give a shit about their reactions either.

Bronco didn't know about any of that, and she hadn't wanted to bring up her baggage with everything going on with him. But the second thing he said struck a little close to it and she realized, suddenly, that he might have the wrong idea about the state of things here.

She sat down, resting her side against his lightly, but lifting her head towards where the rest of the pack likely was. He was joking but he probably... should know this. Might be a little longer than you think, for that. I stepped down. Mom and I haven't really talked since.

Add to that Ruenna's promotion, and how the other woman obviously felt about Fennec... her chances, she assumed, were pretty well sunk in that department. Their loss, of course. She only really regretted it now because she may have ruined his shot as well.
