Tlantli is by Nat!

The flaxen-hued coyote could not tell if her words had any affect whatsoever: the dark woman's response was less than hopeful, but what could she hope to glean here and now? She had not been able to trust this hybrid for many months now, though they'd once been sisters. It had never been Tlantli's intention to harm those she cared about still within Salsola. She did not care for Ezequiel, but even so -- he had taken risk for her, and she had been indebted to him for that. That debt was paid, however, so far as Tlantli saw it -- her "mate" was ranked Family, a rare privilege in this pack.

The dark woman's response and half-step did not sway Tlantli, who did not flinch away. She might have if she had chosen to confront Sirius and he had stepped toward her -- perhaps. She did not fear Eris, however, and the sand-colored coyote offered only a blank stare toward the Auxiliary, considering her for a moment. Finally, Tlantli shrugged and offered a thin smile, lacking in any amusement whatsoever. So be it, she said, and started to turn. The dark woman chose that moment to jerk forward, her clawed hand flashing. Tlantli's swift hand caught Eris's wrist in midair, closer to her face than she would have liked, but before impact all the same.
