gather ye rosebuds while ye may

The answer she got was simple and startling. Instantly - and perhaps a bit rudely - one browspot shot up as the corners of her mouth turned down, her expression the embodiment of a snarky "really?" Had she just trekked all the way across the ice and up like a billion flights of stairs for nothing?
She soon found out that the reaction was a bit premature as the male went on to elaborate. Ferrous schooled her impertinent expression into something a little bit more neutral, although she couldn't quite get rid of all of her skepticism.
As the male spoke Ferrous' critical expression began to change. Honestly she was surprised by his honesty. It surprised her that this alpha - technically an alpha of nothing at the moment - was willing to admit he wasn't the big swinging dick of the North. He was blunt and seemingly willing to take his time choosing members. She didn't feel like he was trying to woo her to the pack to fill some quota which was what she'd expected.
Perhaps a bit too blunt for her own good, she replied, "Then it looks like we's at an impasse, huh? If we can't trust ya to do right by your pack, to accept wolves who will only make it better, and ya can't trust us to be those wolves, we should just call it a day right now and go our separate ways 'cause we ain't ever gonna get anywhere, right?"
Without even looking at Zahir, Ferrous knew she was making her companion nervous, but she had to ask. If there was one thing Ferrous had learned from thieving it was that things that seemed absolute weren't always so. He had to be going somewhere with this, right? There had to be a "catch" to reel them in; some kind of twist to overcome the chasm his honest words had created.

Ferrous has a saber-toothed snow leopard companion named Zahir. If she isn't
mentioned IC it's safe to assume she isn't there.
