Blacktail Deer Plateau Praying for Love, and Paying in Naivety

The mercenary trade Rue would have guessed for Corvus, but the scouting less so. The two trades seemed to be somewhat incompatible with one another, seeing as mercenaries were to protect borders while scouts were to travel outside of them. Rue herself had thought to go for the scouting trade, but her recent promotion had her rethinking that plan. She could not be present for the pack in a leadership capacity if she was always traveling, could she?

Corvus distracted Rue's attention from Siqsa with his question, and Rue's brow knit in thought. "Probably closer than he is with any one else here, if I had to guess," Rue said with a sigh. "I just feel protective of him," she admitted, eyes sliding back to the youth's unconscious form. "He's so..." She didn't finish the thought. Instead, she added, "I worry he's been getting into trouble again. Provoking packmates seems to be his speciality."
