Blacktail Deer Plateau Praying for Love, and Paying in Naivety

Rue's gaze joined once more with Corvus's as he made the suggestion, and a small smile found its way onto her features. "Yes, I think that's exactly what he needs," she agreed, head tilting slightly as she studied the raven. His observations were insightful, his intentions altruistic... it was as if Rue was really meeting him for the first time. 

Rue's attention snaped back to Siqsa as he stirred and began murmurring. She leaned in close, lapping her tongue gently over his crown to simultaneously soothe him and check his fever. His skin felt a bit cooler to the touch, she thought. "They made me this way!" Siqsa slurred out and then fell quiet. Rue's eyes found Corvus's once more to fix him with a knowing look. Their work was cut out for them, certainly. 

Once it was clear that Siqsa was not going to wake, Rue continued the conversation. "We seem to have similar interests, Corvus. I thought to train as a scout as well, but now..." The young woman's brow furrowed in thought. "Especially as Beta, I think my packmates need me closer to home. Coaching might do, or Advising, perhaps." There was much that could be pursued within the Counseling trade, and all of it could be done from within the Plateau borders. In fact, what Corvus was offering to do for Siqsa sounding very much like the kind of coaching that interested Rue. Similar interests, indeed.
