The words of the female cut through to the she-wolf's heart like a knife, and she had an awful time convincing herself that this was not her dear friend suddenly turned on her. She shook her head, her thoughts no longer allowed to distract her, and then she straightened up to her full height. It was not an act of dominance, but simply a feign of indifference until finally she sat down in the snow and watched the hybrid finish her meal. Her tail tucked around her legs - if she had been in her optime form it would have been her hands clasped in her lap instead, anything to portray patience. And she did wait, until the carcass was licked clean and the girl's attention could be directed elsewhere.
She could have fought the canine for the kill, but Blind had never been much of a fighter. Even in play she always succumbed to the will of the other, and the lessons the scarred female had taught her so long ago had been lost to time. She could have retorted with words too, attempting to humble the girl with the simple fact that she had lost all of her blood family to insanity and death. But she knew better than to play the 'pity-me' card when face to face with a stranger as feisty as this one. So instead she remained calm, watching the girl almost with interest as she finished off her meal. Finally she spoke again, these words more gentle than the last and carrying the air of playfulness: You don't mess around when it comes to food, do you? She chuckled then, her mis-matched eyes reflecting the sparkle of the snow.
