Haunted Wood wondering eyes of the ones that were left behind

Where he was testy, Clarence showed resignation and optimism. Valour followed his gaze up to the stars listening with a stubborn frown to the comment on the pleasantness of the night though he eyed the spotted man from the sides of his gaze once or twice studying the dazed expression of the newcomer as he mentioned not being in danger as if it were new to him. Looking down he shook his head snorting softly. Of all the places to be feeling safe, the dark woods was the last he would ever think an outsider would choose, Then again Vengeance's death had brought much change to the woods. "Well....glad we've made you feel safe" he spoke of the pack as a whole before falling silent again. 


He had begun to vanish into thought before Clarence spoke again and he turned a surprise gaze as he was given a chance to leave. His brows furrowed and he tried to figure out how to respond to the gesture of kindness, feeling both grateful for it and guilty that he wanted to actually go lay down and mope. After a moment he exhaled slowly and made a shrugging gesture awkwardly looking away but wagging his tail "Thanks....can't sleep anyway. Do you wanna come with me to a cache? I was gonna eat something" he asked turning in the direction of the one he had buried the piglets in. "Food in our stomachs may help us sleep"
