Near Light, Near Darkness

Sparrow was glad to see that Brandr wasn't startled by her. The younger man greeted her politely and Sparrow nodded.

"I'm doing alright," she said, her voice light. Even she was surprised by its tone. A small smile rose to her face. Recently Brandr had been an active and upstanding member in the pack. He had been somewhat of a first responder; a constant presence in the ever silent pack.

"How are you?" She asked. "It's a shame about the Santuarios, but I have to admit I'm glad to have new energy in the pack."

Sparrow felt bad admitting it out loud, but it was true. She wanted to figure out more about what had happened to them. She wanted to know if it was an isolated event or something more. Perhaps Brandr had suggestions. Even if not, Sparrow had been meaning to talk with him. Something alpha-esque to reward his constant efforts in the pack. She just had to figure out how to word it and propose it to the younger man.
