A little short. Meh. ↔ 336 words
Cheering up? Maybe that was what Liam needed. Or maybe some kind of spirit that could erase minds... or both. Either way, he hated being in the funk he was in and he wanted to get better. Soon rather than later. Jackson seemed like an okay fellow once Liam warmed up to him. It was easy to see that Jackson wasn't used to fighting or hatred or fear – he looked just like the happy-go-lucky, fun-loving wolf Liam had been just a couple days ago. He looked like the wolf Liam wanted to be again.
Liam didn't really see much importance to Jackson's reply. Killing time and having fun. Maybe that was what Liam was trying to do – although he wanted to make himself useful too, so he covered it with a task. Fetching medical supplies. Honestly, where was he supposed to begin anyway? He didn't really know where to find such supplies. Jackson returned the question though and Liam's thoughts were cut short as he began to muse over his own reply. “I'm taking a break from my duties at home and looking for some supplies – kill two birds with one stone.” he replied simply, omitting anything about the war or the fact that he was working days and nights healing his pack-mates from minor to severe wounds. He was definitely not going to mention the fact that he was trying to forget his uncle's death or the pain it brought his family.
Deciding his neck would end up hurting if he kept looking up at Jackson, Liam began making his way to the broken window and placed his foot on the unsteady windowsill, which in turn gave him enough height to reach the roof's ledge. He hoisted himself up and walked over to Jackson again, careful not to fall through the weak surface. “Do you come from nearby?” he asked curiously. He had told the other male of his pack, but jackson hadn't done so. Maybe he was a loner?
