Apple's face fell in slight disappointment, because having a romance plot unfold before her eyes would have been much more exciting than common diplomacy meetings. She got a chuckle out of otherwise very serious situation, when Phox introduced himself. It reminded her the Tale of The Three Piglets, their names being Nif-Nif, Naf-Naf and Nouf-Nouf. A wolf version could be Phex, Phox and... Phux/Phix/Phax?

Or, in this case, it seemed that The Practical Pig was more necessary than a creative alternative. "Now, now, Phex, I believe that this fellow is your neighbour and it is better being on good terms with them than start out as enemies. Harmless, general facts won't hurt anyone? After all - this guy - is just a messenger," she said calmly and gave Phex a hopeful smile. 

"And Phox, dear, you can put the nice girl's worry for her pack's safety at rest by being more specific?" she turned to the young man and wagged her tail to encourage him.
