Like most bullies, all it took was a bit of confidence reflected back at her in order to rattle her. And when Arctuturus looked up at her again with stern indignition in his features, she realized she was making a mistake in picking on someone like him. She felt mildly flustered, and attempted to backpedal, covering her lighthearted (albeit cruel) mischeif with sincerity. She shrugged her shoulders and tipped her ears back, in an image of modesty.
"I just thought, if you'd come all this way, you'd want to leave a message," She replied simply, her tone innocent enough. "Or, you're very welcome to wait here, with me, for Wraen...I hope you understand, but as Sergeant-at-Arms, if I don't know you, I can't simply let you go looking for someone, unescorted. It's my job to be somewhat fussy about strangers on the borders...Especially if I see one of my packmates reacting to them the way Towhee did." She concluded, slyly trying to place some of the blame on him. If he had that effect on her best friend- how could she then be expected to trust he really was one of Wraen's friends? "Have to keep the pack's best interests at heart. Scout's honour," She said, with a promising smile.
