I have some explaining to do

Álarr was relieved to hear that Pesto was only grounded til next season. It would suck to wait but at least that wasn't too long, although… was she breaking her grounding by coming here? He'd hate to see her get in more trouble and be grounded even longer.

His ears perked up as she mentioned that she was allowed to leave when she became a yearling. He grinned. "Sure! If you're free to leave Ashen then I don't see why they wouldn't." Álarr was terribly excited by the idea of having a friend of his living in the same pack as him. Apart from his companions and his siblings he didn't really have anyone that he considered a 'friend'.

Pesto went on to say that she'd be allowed to visit if she had someone with her. Álarr glanced about. "So, do you have someone with you now?"
