Pain was something Io was fairly used to, and therefore had a high pain threshold to. But it didn't take away the displeasure it caused nor the wishing it would stop. Collie ears lay flat against her head as he lay on the fur pile silently, Jaroslaw sat beside her running his fingers softly down the back of her neck. The fur was slightly damp with sweat, but neither cared. Jacinto sat close by in the corner, watching closely. Io could help assume he was as bored as Jaroslaw was, as they'd been awake for hours doing nothing but waiting. Gemma had been over in the morning, and when things go exciting she'd sent her own pups away and stayed to help. And she was much more excited that Io. The white female dashed around collecting things, silver eyes watched her do so. Trying to keep her mind off of the pain.
The hybrid shifted her position again, surely it wouldn't be long. Her white tipped tail flickered out of frustration and silver eyes moved to watch the approaching tiger quoll. Bialik pounced on her shoulder and began to chew at her fur. Io didn't want this sort of attention from him, it was more irritating that anything else at the moment. But fatigue forbid her from speaking.
