I’m gonna be fearless

Sedna felt a little silly that Sirius could just reach what she had to jump for just by standing on his rear legs. She ran to collect the branches he dropped before the blasted tides pulled them out to deep water, depositing them safely up on dry land, already formulating a plan on how best to process the sudden boon that was before her. Her skin warmed under her fur, her grin sheepish in response to his possessive statement, her tail taking up a low wag to show it didn’t bother her in the slightest.

His next question though, gave her pause. "Closest thing I had to a companion back home was a hare that helped me find herbs... until she got herself eaten. Didn’t get a chance ter kill the wolf that did it though... Did you know some hares and rabbits can eat nightshade and not die? Not such good news for those that eat ‘em, he was dead before I caught up with him." Her smile had a slightly dark edge to it for a moment, before she got around to actually answering his question, "Honestly, I’d love one, especially if I could put it to work helping with healing too, though I wouldn’t know where to start as far as picking one, or having one pick me. How does it work?" She supposed for a start she’d have to stop thinking of every animal she saw as a potential next meal.
