Blacktail Deer Plateau Let me... please

Fox wondered whether FitzDutiful could lend his ears and (trying his hardest not to seem too eager) he dutifully nodded while saying "Of course," calmly.

Was it really possible that the alphas had heard he wanted to become a counsellor? So far the only person he had expressly said that too was Osprey, but she was Perry's sister. And Fox was Perry's mate. So it made perfect sense that she would know about his plans and ideas for the future. Feeling very proud, FitzDuitiful was successfully hiding all the raging emotions for, on the exterior, he was presenting himself as just a neutral, helpful party. As much as he desperately wanted to be recognised for something in this pack he had a suspicion that a Counsellor would never appear too eager for troubles. In fact, why would any wolf wish misfortune or troubles upon another?

Settling in comfortably for what length of time this might be, FitzDutiful waited patiently for Fox to begin.
