Redhawk Caldera a drop filled with memories

Fennec frowned in sympathy at the croaked sound and the words.  She wasn't sure if Meerkat was talking physical or mental pain, but asking "where" sounded like a kind of stupid question if it was the latter.

She inched herself over until she was brushing up against, close enough to share her warmth at least.  She had never seen (heard?) Meerkat upset before, so it was hard to remember if she went for hugs or was standoffish.  Fennec herself was a bit of a tossup.  Can I help? She asked instead.
