Anais continued to eye the limp form of the prairie dog lying upon the ground at her paws, uncertain and deliberating. She could not make up her mind what she ought to do, what would be the most responsible thing to do now that she was a lead hunter, but as it tended to be the case Glacier came to her rescue. He suggested they bring it to the pack's cache first, a very responsible and not wasteful plan, and as Anais lifted her golden eyes to his she smiled gratefully. She hated the idea of just leaving it behind, but she also really wanted to be able to enjoy her walk with him, and she very well could not do that without being able to answer him. "Okay. Thanks," she replied with an appreciative wag of her tail before she bent her head down and picked the plump creature up gently within her jaws.
With her prize in tow, she began to walk, eager to set aside the prairie dog with the rest of the meals the pack kept in stock for those who were unable for whatever reason to hunt for themselves. She felt immensely proud with her promotion, delighted that her skills had been noticed and so very honored to be given such an important role in Glacier's family-based pack. She could not wait to prove herself to them, and hoped to see for herself that they really did welcome her among them the way Glacier promised her they did.
* Because he has become her protector, Glacier is allowed into any and all threads that Anais may be in, regardless of how they are tagged.
