the half

Poor Idalia didn’t know how to take this strange woman, with her sulky voice and dismissive attitude. She normally waited around for a hard dimissial, but she was starting to realise this woman wouldn’t give her one. Lia had stuffed up, and tried to make amends. Now, the consequences would fall as they did. If word got back to Briar and Artorias about how she had damaged another wolf's property, would they drop those sweet smiles and sunny dispositions?

She shuddered at the thought, lowering her head to Hanako once more. Leaving the bedding and empty box where she had placed it on the grassy embankment. The bracelet was of course now around Hana’s wrist, and her den was half submerged. There was nothing more Idalia could do, except to continue to stand on this woman's toes. “As you wish, My Lady” she said, and turned to trott away. Definitely not fleeing.
