Stone Circle you shoulda kept your pretty mouth shut

relief is quick to wiggle its way into her tense joints and soothingly get about to loosening them with gentle traces. it's only now that the frantic energy propelling her to safety disperses having completed its job that she realises how exhausted she is. letting a small smile step daintily upon her lips, the girl nods eagerly and lets a mumbled "thankyou so much" pass her lips,  ears still perked attentively as they await her final answer. she exhales, deflating peacefully whilst her head bobs quickly to signify her gratitude and agreement to her terms. she has to admit though, her first instinct is to feel a little peeved at the condition. having gotten by on her own for so long, having to rely on someone else wasn't going to come natural to her and she couldn't help but suspect that whoever it was would just slow her down. yet she doesn't let such misgivings reach neutral features as she rolls her stiff shoulders back. there is a little part of her that remains warmed that the woman cares enough to give up a pack member if only temporarily to make sure she's safe. shame she isn't mature enough yet for that to be the dominant reaction.

she returns the woman's smile and blinks from her to the pale knight as her tail waves freely at her haunches. "yes that sounds great, thank you" the words don't seem like a well enough way of expressing her gratitude but she supposes they'll have to do until she can prove that she's worth their time. without hesitating she follows the two when they go to move, steps lighter despite the exhaustion clinging to her muscles.
