Sun Mote Copse I'll be resting my eyes

Kinda OOC: Let's pretend somebody called the Redhawks. Or maybe Phox heard the call for the Firebirds and figured that since they were sister packs, he should make an appearance, considering he was in the area. We're making a heckuva lot of assumptions here, but I really wanna be part of this gosh dang thread, ok?

He'd seen her so recently. How long had it been? A week, maybe two? Wildfire had come to see Raven, and they'd chatted about bringing the kids all together once summer had passed and fall was on its way. And now, gathered around, he saw her as a mere shadow of what she once was. It took every ounce of his determination to not flee like he had so many times before. This was growing up. Losing loved ones, one after another. Towhee might have experienced it early on with him and Orca (and even Titmouse), but Phox was only just healing from the loss of Camilla. And now another loved one was departing this world.

He had come to tell Wildfire of his plans with Towhee and the kids, but none of that was relevant right now. He spotted her two pups, Eljay, Finley, Elwood, and a couple of other faces he half-recognized, including Wraen, whom he had met only days ago. She asked for Raven, but Phox wasn't sure if she'd heard the call. Hopefully she had.

Inching his way toward Wildfire, he booped her snoot.
