Otter Creek Don't know why you rescued me

Would you care to fade this one way or another? I'm trying to make sure I have all HB's threads wrapped. :D

A friendlier wolf might have responded by saying something like, Nice to meet you, Saena! Although Dauntless/Honey Badger did feel sort of happy to make her acquaintance, she wasn't about to be overly expressive about it. She bobbed her head to acknowledge the eventual introduction and that was it.

Saena mentioned her pack's Healer. Honey Badger shook her head before she even had time to properly consider the offer. I don't need anybody's help! she thought stubbornly. Yep, I'm back, her inner voice said dryly. Then she caught herself and stilled, her head tilting slightly to the left.

"Let me think about it. I appreciate the offer of actual medical intervention," the uniquely-colored yearling said in a wry tone. "If I'm still in a bad way in a few days, I'll come find you and your Healer at... Blacktail Deer Plateau, did you say? Mind giving me directions, just in case?"
