Larksong Grotto Remember to remember me

Maybe @Tavi -- because we always need an active thread :P

Tavi had insisted on keeping Reek under constant watch and care, but he felt himself far too independent to sit around and wait to get better. However, his injuries kept him from most things. He had tried to patrol the borders, but he found himself unable at his slow, limping pace. The longer Reek walked, the more his leg pained him, and eventually, the alpha male conceded in his duties and left them for a later date.

He limped down to the lakebed and waded into the water. Though spring had come in full effect, the water still held a biting chill and it sent an angry shiver down Reek's spine. Dipping down low, Reek closed his eyes and held his breath before completely submerging himself beneath the gentle wake. After a moment, Reek's head breached from the water and he sucked in breath. Then, he began the meticulous work of cleaning his wounds in the shallows.
