Something Else
She grinned sheepishly when the male scolded her, it wasn't the first time she'd been scolded so she was fairly use to it. She wouldn't lie as to how it happened, she simply hadn't been paying attention. "Well ya see...I was just kinda runnin' around like I usually do, and the prickly plant came out of nowhere and I mighta run right into it," The way she explained nearly sounded like it was no big deal, but when she tried to smile again she winced with obvious discomfort. "Ow..." She sat down, which was a heck of a lot more comfortable for her since she could take the weight off her forepaws.
She was all too eager to accept his offer of help, her tail thumped vigorously against the sand as she nodded. "Oh could you!? It's quite a ways back to Lirim, and my brothers would prolly laugh at me if they saw me like this!" She scowled a bit, oh she could imagine her brothers faces if they did see her looking like a pin cushion! "Are you a healer? It's okay if you're not, I don't think I need much healing, I just need help getting the thorns out. I tried but I kept poking my tongue and I can't reach everywhere..." He ears flattened with further embarrassment, but as embarrassed as she was, at least it was someone not from her pack that had found her instead of her brothers. Or her dad...She could already imagine the look on his face if he saw her like this too!
