Redhawk Caldera aftermath

Grimm's remarks about Elwood were met with a quizzical look. What did she mean by that? It sounded to him like the two of them might be involved, which didn't sit right with him because... well, he supposed Elwood and Finley weren't actually an item. It was just that he (and Fox... and everybody else...) had always expected those two to magically end up together at some point. Here was possible evidence that a fairytale ending might not happen.

Before he could ask, Grimm said something else, which was a little more important than pack gossip. "She'll give birth in a few weeks," he confirmed with a switch of his black tail, "and we'll always need those. Two of our would-be Caretakers bailed. Somnia's going to be great but, like I said, we could always use an extra set of helping hands. Thanks for doing that, by the way," he added, referring to the stockpiles.

"What did you mean about Elwood and evaluation sheets?" he queried. He wanted to get to know Grimm better and he reasoned that this subject would probably get to the heart of the matter more than a vapid round of twenty questions ever would.
