Switched back tables because that one was blinding me with its brightness :O xD WC: 505
Thankfully, the blood-stained sofa was facing away from the door. She always put a fresh sheet on it for each patient (she'd scavenged many sheets from an abandoned care center in Halifax), but most of the wolves that came here were in pretty bad shape and bleeding. Sheets didn't do much. But the couch was the easiest thing to put them on--it had a very high back, so even if there were others wandering around the patient could feel like they had a bit more privacy.
She had thought of putting up a curtain around the area, to block it off from view completely, but she had chosen her four-legged form at the beginning of her pregnancy and now she was stuck in it for the duration. So no hands or thumbs, and she had to look up at everybody. She wasn't even halfway through it, either.
Her light eyes did notice the contact between the two though it was slight, almost unnoticable while they came inside, and her tail wagged slightly. Yes, having family back together was always a good thing. For a while she had wondered if Savina was really happy here, or if she might change her mind about living in Twilight Vale and go to find her own way. Time had proven the female's dedication and loyalty, though, and Naniko now counted her as one of her most trusted friends. She only had a handful of really close friends, Pilot, Lucifer, and Savina. Dierdre had been a good friend of hers, but she'd been lost in the fire. And Conri...she didn't want to think about him, so she stopped the thought in its tracks.
Naniko looked to the dark wolf next to her, thinking. Having Ehno around obviously brightened things for the darker wolf; she was practically glowing with emotion and feeling.
"Yes, only the good things." Of course, she hadn't mentioned how interesting Ehno looked. The patterns in his fur were very intriguing. She wanted to get a good look at him, but didn't want him to think that she was staring at him or examining him as one might do to an stranger. He was no stranger; he was Savina's family. He was pack.
"Thank you" She said, lifting her head to look about the room. This place had really grown on her.
"It gets even better with time. There are so many rooms, and there are probably some unexplored passageways that no one has found yet. It has its secrets, just like each of us."She wondered if Savina had brought him to her so that she could meet him or if there was some deeper meaning to it. Perhaps he would stay. They always had room for more, and it would make Savina happier.
"You're going to stay, aren't you? At least for a little while? The manor could use the company." Now a genuine smile stretched across her muzzle at the joke and the hidden meaning.
"I would love to have you, if Savina agrees."
