i found a way to catch that feel good

Tamsyn seemed to be an emotional sort. Not overly emotional, but she showed a great deal more emotion with her expressions and actions than Resin believed she was even capable of. All of this paled in comparison to the boundless enthusiasm and emotion that her sister, Meadow, showed. Sometimes Meadow was over the top, but the scarred lady didn't mind Tamsyn's range of emotions one bit.
Upon being told that there were gifts waiting inside, the small, dark dame jumped into the den, her eyes lighting up in a way that brought another lip quirk to the giantess. Resin found that she rather enjoyed making Tamsyn smile. She pushed the thought aside though, for a moment later the woman came back out of the den, her mint eyes brimming with tears. Tears... she hadn't expected. If she hadn't expected those, she expected the gentle touch of affection even less.
Standing on tiptoe, Tamsyn pressed her small cheek into Resin's scarred visage. The grey woman's pelt bristled slightly and her initial reaction was to bare her teeth in dominance, but she bit that urge back. It had been so very long since another wolf had given her an affectionate touch. She was a warrior. Hell, she didn't even embrace her own daughter. So, when the little, dark newcomer placed her cheek against Resin's in a gesture of thanks, for a moment, she honestly didn't know what to do.
After regaining the mental composure that Tamsyn had stolen away, the scarred woman cleared her throat and nodded at the gratitude. "You're welcome," she growled. There was a bit of heat beneath her cheeks and a strange bit of slithering in her stomach and chest. Odd. There was no reason for that to be there. To change the subject and distract herself from this awkward, although not unwelcome, situation, she spoke further. "Would you like to walk the border with me?" Dark ears flicked forward as she waited for an answer.
