Don't Play Koi [Sirius]

Dove didn't have anything to say to that bit of information about Sirius, so he said nothing instead, cataloging it away for later examination. The unconscious wolf seemed to have a knack for getting attached, at the very least, he decided, remembering Sirius admitting that he'd grown protective of Dove. Those thoughts, though, were darker than the current task at hand, darker than he wanted to deal with right then. He hadn't decided how he felt about Sirius' attempt at curbing the deep seated anxiety Dove had, but he'd at least come to terms with that being the other wolf's method of showing that he cared.
How chaotic, Dove decided.
Iolaire's words poured into his ears, and he nodded. He looked down at Sirius. "Do you need help getting him onto the cart?" he offered. Iolaire was small, and Dove thought, Sirius would likely flail. He hadn't seen her give him any pain medication, though maybe she'd put something in the wounds. Dove didn't like the odds of the smaller woman moving Sirius without both of them getting hurt, but perhaps between Bast, Iolaire, and the . . . very small horned creature, they could somehow make it work.
He looked in the direction he'd come from, hoping that Marshal had fared better than Sirius had. Dove scented the wind, noting no more unfamiliar smells, though he still felt wary of going up the hill alone.
