Be my Honey

After being banged around on the bear's back, Delphi was ready to sleep. Her head felt light and her energy completely sapped. She didn't even have enough in her to snap back at him as he nudged her. Wrinkling her nose, she lifts her head to peer at him. Huh? He wanted her to lean on him? Confused, but not protesting, Delphi gets to her paws and rests her weight against him. Thank goodness she was so tiny. She barely noticed him picking up Binti and carrying her too. Not until they made it to the lake and he was helping her plop down into the hardened mud.

Delphi sighs, ready to fall asleep again, when her eyes suddenly widen and a yelp leaves her as he splashes cold water onto her coat. About to protest, she lifts her head to watch him begin to rub the blood out of her coat. Her mouth hangs open slightly, surprised and honestly to exhausted to give his shit for helping her, again. Letting out a breath of relief, she puts her head back on the shore of the lake and begins to listen to the lake lap against the ground by them. "Thanks, Thrall," she mumbles, half-awake and half-aware.
