What's the meaning when you have a broken whole

Okay so... why on Earth did Acere trust her enough to watch after his kid?

Maybe it was because she didn’t eat Winter when she met her. That or he trusted the judgement of Whiskers and Ears a fair amount. Could it have something to do with her willingness to follow Winterfell into the raids, maybe? Or… maybe even the fact she had stepped in, unfortunately too late, to fight the snow leopard that attacked two of Winterfell’s members?

Whatever the reason, he was willing to let Snow come with her that day and had asked her if she’d teach him something... Yeah, uh… okay. What the Hell was she supposed to teach him anyway? Wasn’t as if the alpha was descriptive.

‘This is some bullshit…’ Bells thought miserably. He thought getting permission to leave the packlands today would include babysitting? She wasn’t even really sure how to interact with the kid properly. Sure she was trying to make small talk but it was a bit awkward.

The woman was edgy, aware the youth, and her companions, were following her.

Bells wasn’t sure what possessed her to travel this far south but…

Here they were…

She was feeling moody by the time they got to the swamp… and that was when she saw a face that was familiar. This helped relax her some; the man wasn’t bad in battle. Actually… maybe this was a good opportunity.

“Hey, Yo, Eraithus!” Bells barked to get his attention and turned her attention to Snow. “Hope you’re ready to get some learning done, kid. Come on.” She trotted towards the blue furred male with a cocky grin on her face.

“Been a little, huh? What tricks of the trade you been into since our spar, hmmm?” She wore her snow leopard cape of course and, this time, her dagger was completed as well. “Got more company this time. Guys, this is Eraithus. Eraithus these are my companions; Whiskers, who you met before, Ears, the little Devil, and Snow.”

Ears scoffed. “I’m not small…”

Bells rolled her eyes. “Yeah, and the sky doesn’t get dark at night.”

Whiskers on the other hand offered the other a small smile.

“Good seeing you again. You were pretty good the last spar. Bells enjoyed it.”
