Brace yourselves

It felt like she was on the ground for an hour, but in reality it was mere moments after bumbling out of the den that she noticed her friend. She squinted up at him, unable to remember exactly why she thought he was so scary. Looking upon his solemn face brought her no fear and instead she simply felt warm and safe. "Sirius." She greeted, voice soft. "You can pretend you never saw anything, okay?" Her eyes shut once more and she nuzzled into the grass below before realizing how foolish her plan was to stay forever outside the den. "I'm just going to go home."

She moved to stand once more, a raspy exhale sounding with the effort. Her legs still didn't seem to want to work well, and when her paw hit a small stone she stumbled slightly over it. A soft touch from Sirius' nose upon her shoulder kept her from falling all together, the nudge cautious and brief lasting only as long as necessary to keep her upright. Regardless, Zee's anxiety swelled and for a fleeting moment the haze of the herbs vanished. She turned her head to snap - jaws aiming to land upon his offending muzzle. The movement shot daggers into her wound, and a low growl sounded from her in response.

It took a moment before she calmed, hardened eyes upon him barely long enough for a few mere breaths before she realized what it was she did. The attack came back to her quickly, and the slave fell into a posture that rarely came easy for her. Ears pinned against her skull and her head slumped between her shoulders, tail tucking between her legs as she lowered herself before him. "I'm sorry." She whispered, gaze fixed upon the deadly tips of his saber fangs.

"Speech"
"Thinking"
"You."
