Aaaaagh. Lark had gotten her sick. Damnit. She could feel the same sort of thing he did - so tired, sniffly, a light cough... she felt awful. Ugh. Why now? She didn't want to be sick. At all. On top of that she was paranoid that Farrym would get sick as well, but he seemed fine - no other creature seemed to be getting this illness other than wolves, so perhaps it was exclusive to wolves. Either way, it wouldn't have stopped him from stubbornly and quietly clinging to her shoulders when she decided to force herself up and out of her rocky den. Her fur already felt wet and soaked by the continuous rain; a constant drizzle would hardly be noticed at this point. Nevermind that it wasn't too bright to get cold while having a cold... but that was besides the point.

"Lillie," came a soft voice, a warning in the tone that made her freeze. It wasn't often when she heard that tone, but when she did, she listened avidly to the little creature whom she saved so long ago. Her ears flicked back slightly, listening to whatever Farrym had to say. "It's Starling." The officer's eyes widened, before narrowing in anger and annoyance and... hurt. She growled low in her throat, but it trailed off. Damnit, now that Farrym pointed it out, it was so obvious. How had she missed it? Oh, wait, sickness. Stuffed nose. Hard to smell anything.

The stiffness in her joints let out abruptly as she sighed deeply. "Thank you, Farrym," she responded quietly. She felt more than heard the reassuring purr, vibrating the skin on her back ever so slightly. She smiled, a sad smile, at it; she knew he was not truly happy with this situation. Not after she had ranted to him, privately, about these issues. He knew Starling was the one who found him along with Lillie; he also knew that Starling caused more anger and pain in the woman than any other wolf that she knew.

Resisting the urge to shake her entire body - why, she wasn't quite certain - Lillianna started walking again. That odd, slow, lumbering pace that made her feel like she was about to fall over and was swaying like mad. She obviously wasn't, because Farrym stayed on her back quite easily, but gods was it difficult to walk. She began to walk past, pausing only once to peek at den that remained vacant for so long... at this point, it was more a surprise to find the boy in the den than to find him missing and gone.

Note: Lillie has scars over her right eye and down her cheek. She also has scars under her chin and on her jaw. Her tables and art will most likely not reflect this. Unless it is specified otherwise, assume Lillianna is accompanied by her companion.
