Roberto watched with a little smile on his muzzle as his gray friend enjoyed the snow with him as it fell lightly around them. Before long both of their pelts were speckled with white. Bob rested his head flat on the ground once again, trying to rest a bit. Every move make him feel so tired and his head felt fuzzy and dizzy and he didn't like it. Luckily the roots that the little healer had given him had taken effect so most of the pain had faded away. His leg still felt really weird, the end of his stump aching and burning from time to time. His eyes told him that the paw was gone, that his leg was several inches shorter than it was when he padded into the clearing, but his nerves hadn't quite gotten the message. His brain felt all mixed up. It was like his paw was still there, like he should still be able to move it, but when he tried nothing happened, nothing was there.

The feel of Cana poking at his ear and her voice caught his attention again. He wasn't used to Cana's voice sounding serious instead of its usual playful, silly tone. It was startling to the scrawny brute, making him focus his full attention on her. "I'm sorry... I didn't mean to scare you..." he replied, his voice still raspy and strained. He made himself lift his head to rest his amber gaze on her, a hopeful grin crossing his muzzle. "I'm okay now though," he added. He wasn't real sure how okay he really was, but he didn't want to worry his friend. There was no need for anyone to worry about him.

A little shiver ran through him as the snow began to fall a little harder, creating a light blanket over them. The only warmth he felt was where Cana was still pressed against his back. He really, really wanted to go to sleep. He was sooo tired... but something told him falling asleep in the cold wasn't a good idea. Taking a deep breath, he carefully pulled himself up so he was laying on his stomach instead of his side, his newly shortened leg sticking out awkwardly out in front of him. He had to take a few moments to let his head clear again before he glanced to Euro and Cana both, saying softly, "Can we get out of the snow now?"
