To hear that she was, in fact, meeting his expectations was like a balm to the girl's soul. She hadn't felt, well, deserving of his gifts, as of late, but Sirius' words had soothed those fears. Not that she didn't wince at the mention of the pelts and heavy-lifting, but it was an urge that was slowly dissipating. She felt less and less like a lonely pup whom he had taken pity on. She felt like a warrior. An asset. Something that the Warlord and the pack, wanted and needed.
She started in surprise at the mention of Zeitgeist's preferred name, but gave a good-natured chuckle soon enough. "Absolutely. I'll keep that in mind."
At the hit to her shoulder, she narrowed her eyes and bumped him back a little harder -- but the joke was on her. A tiny yelp escaped when the movement jostled her, and her bruises flared unhappily. "Yeah, I deserved that," she muttered, but followed quickly after Sirius with a happy little tail wag and a hungry little wolverine trailing behind her.
