Tiger by the toe

She came down, and Gavroche immediately moved back to check on the cub. A rough landing, but as he looked her over it seemed she didn’t have any additional injuries save for where the vine had dug into her paw. Even now it seemed tight around it. There was blood too, meaning she had been dangling for a bit of time before he had heard her. His ears lowered, and seeing her innocent grin, his heart panged in his chest. He gave her a small, sad smile. “I’m glad we could get you down, little one. Still… that’s a dangerous trap. I’m not sure which of the pack members set that… I’m sorry that even happened…” He moved closer, going slow, cautious, not sure if coming into her space would scare her or not.

“That vine is still digging into you. I’ll need to get that off and we’ll have to get some medicine on it so it doesn’t get infected.” Gav let his gaze flick back to her face. “I don’t like to cause hurts, I like to make them feel better and stop hurting. Are you okay with me doing that, little one?” His voice was soft, gentle. He didn’t want to cause her more pain. It was already going to be hard enough when they had to explain what happened to her mother for trespassing into the territory… but… could they even tell a child this size such news? Gavroche frowned a little, praying now that Lucette and Bae-Syl wouldn’t show up…

…Come to think of it… could Bae-Syl have been the one to lay the trap? He was the main one patrolling the creek, with Baeuregard and Tanelan denning at the edge of the creek’s territory, close to the Falls. Maybe it was Tan’s? He hadn’t had a chance to interact with the purple wolf or the others inside him either… Would they be a danger if they came by and saw the cub? Gavroche lowered his ears a bit more, hoping that wouldn’t be the case.
