Zoey’s sobbing had certainly grabbed some attention. She didn’t even realize her cries would be heard, and whether it was by someone friendly or otherwise, she wasn’t sure she cared anymore. Everything she had known, loved, attached herself to - called it home for once in her life - had been destroyed. Ripped to pieces. Her desire to explore, her cheerful demeanor, the bubbly girl who wanted to know everything about the world, was submerged in lieu of a deep, spiralling sadness. Her chest ached, from the exertion of crying near constantly and from the pain she felt knowing she was all alone in the world again. She’d lost her parents and she’d now lost her home. There was nothing for her to go to, nowhere to live, nobody to turn to. Just..alone.

And suddenly a pair of limbs wrapped themselves around her curled up form, and she didn’t fight it. Her eyes were squeezed shut, blurred with tears. Zoey didn’t even know who was holding her, or what they wanted to accomplish. But it took only a second in between her sobs to hear a soft, female voice - Miss, please, you’ll only make yourself sick - and after a few moments her cries simmered to a few shuddering breaths. She felt like a tiny puppy again, crying out for her mother or father. And in some ways, she still was. With a big, snotty sniff, the russet yearling paused to blink her blurry eyes, wiping them with one paw. Her snout was wet with mucus and tears. She definitely looked a bot worse for wear. At last, the girl gently pulled herself to her haunches, murmuring, "Um..oh, I’m so sorry.." She sniffed and hiccuped as she found her goggles nearby, slipping them over her head and now ws able to clearly see who had embraced her.

It was a tan and brown she-wolf..a bit smaller than Zoey, and she only had one eye. She had a bobcat companion next to that same side, perhaps as a guide creature. She almost had a spark of curiosity glimmer in her expression, but it faded as quickly as it came. She was in the lowest of the low in terms of headspace. This woman was so kind as to not hurt her in her moment of vulnerability. "I, uh..thanks. For holding me. I-I guess I needed that right now," She replied, her voice tight. She forced herself to swallow the lump in her throat, but the tears were already returning as she looked down at her oaws and said, "I-I just lost everything and everybody I knew. My parents died during the Ooze outbreak and now Miss Theory is gone and the pack is gone and I have no home and-" Zoey forced herself to cut off her sob sotry as, in fact, another wave of sobs starting to shake her shoulders. Why was she spilling all this to a stranger? Why? She would just lose everything all over again if she opened up, would she?
