Walk | Talk | Think Gale's ears immediately folded back the second she heard the soft whine her sister made, knowing in that moment that she should have stayed quiet. Locha was not in here to talk - no one came to the den to talk - and she knew that she was interrupting what was supposed to be valuable resting time. Especially given Locha's dismal appearance, or at least the way she had carried herself, it might actually have been necessary and not just wanted, which made it all the more important and all the worse that Gale was currently preventing it. Time and a place for everything, Gale, she scolded herself, and this isn't it. Even so, Locha answered with an obvious joke, ribbing her sister and lessening a bit of the guilt she had taken from her inconsiderate actions. Gale smiled sheepishly, grateful that the Seabird had been able to take it so lightly and not become a grump about it. Heavens knew that could have been just as likely with some of their other siblings. And it seemed she actually had more reason than most for a grumpy reaction. Gale drew her head slightly back away from Locha in order to see her better - maybe the cold was what she had seen in Seabird's changed demeanor? - and then proceeded to curl more tightly around her. "That stinks," she murmured sympathetically, wondering if there was possibly anything she could get Rocky to make for their sister to help her along the road to wellness. As the question was turned around on her, Gale went with the obvious answer. "Cold." Realizing how it could have been misconstrued given the circumstances, she continued, "Not a cold, I mean. The weather's colder now, and there's not a big blue mountain to steal warmth from in here anymore." Not that she wished Glacier's girl was gone, or that he did not spend his free time snuggled up next to her rather than his greedy siblings, but she did miss those times. "Though you're a really close second," she added through a smile, nuzzling her sister once more. |
