Maggot's jaw tensed at the approach of the large male, her muscles pulling tight to her body in lew of the fight she was expecting to give. When his paw reached for her chin, her eyes whipped towards his, a wild look gracing them for a moment. Her pupils the size of a droplet, and the beginnings of a snarl on her lip. Upon hearing his gentle question, the look faded and the stiffness in her body was now only out of shocked confusion.
A bittersweet hint of a smile graced her muzzle as she spoke," Maggot." She knew it was a sorry excuse for a name, and she knew their righteousness would be offended by it. It amused her.
"It is not a matter of what I deserved, it is a matter of what I got, regardless. I only look to avoid more scars, not focus on the healed ones," She quipped, the pity between the two threatening to suffocate her. She was not used to this type of touch, and therefore, had no idea how to react to it. The girl simply sat, her eyes flicking between the two males, trying to figure out what to look at.
It wasn't that she was uncomfortable with their closeness, she had been touched by wolves she knew wanted to hurt her. So the simple touch from a wolf who hadn't shown any signs of violence was a bit confusing to her already rattled mind. Maggot wondered how old the two were, they looked much older than her. She suddenly became a bit embarrassed by her state. Even when she had been treated cruelly, one always kept their appearance top notch.
However, the girl still hated their pity. She had survived all these scars without a single drop of it, and she did not feel comfortable drowning in pity after escaping the suffocation of cruelty.
