Chasing rabbits

Unlike Delphi, Binti did not trust the boy and would step back as soon as the bandage was finished. As such, Delphi did not expect a thank you. She had been honest in her response to him. If he were dead by some other force, how could she do it herself? Her brow does raise when he mentions that he has some bruising. Letting out another hum, she thinks about what would be best for that. An idea comes her and she goes digging through her bag.

After a moment, she pauses when she sees two different barks. One is a white-grey and another is a light brown. She thinks for a moment, trying to remember which one came from which tree. Willow and… Elderberry? Her brow furrows. Heal or poison… The contemplation is there, but she couldn’t do him in now. That would be too easy. Resolving to helping the boy as Vidarr’s words struck her mind, she grabs the white piece of bark and holds it out to him.

“Eat it,” she commands him. “It’ll suck cause I didn’t bring a liquid version of it, but it’ll at least help the pain,” Delphi offers as she once more sits back and waits to watch him eat the bark.
