Let Something Shine

Satu had just dove beneath the water, paddling around it's close confines and blowing bubbles, watching them rise to the top, then surfaced when her breath was gone. She splashed playfully, snorffling at the water so a multitude of bubbles rose from her open jaws, then snapping at the water like it was an enemy. But the sound of pawsteps had her immediately dropping the silliness to play it cool, just another wolf soaking in the pleasant water, as she peered out of the corner of her eye at the approaching wolf.

She vaguely recognized him, though she really wasn't entirely sure who he was. Maybe one of Song's kids? The older ones, obviously. He nodded to her as he slipped into the water and immersed himself under the falls. Satu grinned; that probably felt amazing for him in this heat, after that climb. Sure had for her, anyway, and the boy had a darker coat than her.

He spoke up softly, and Satu shook her head. "Not at all! They're everyone's falls, aren't they? And it's such a hot day out, I'm surprised the entire pack isn't here enjoying it. Maybe they just couldn't handle the climb, or they're too busy cooing over everyone's new babies," she chattered, grinning teasingly at the last bit. The climb wasn't really that bad, but there really were a whole lot of babies in the pack for everyone to spoil, so that was probably it.

She didn't give any thought to the other wolf's opinion on the new litters, specifically his own siblings - she'd never had baby siblings, so the idea of jealousies arising from it had never occurred to her. Not to mention that since Iorwerth had been taken away, she had felt rather smothered by parental attention anyway. So the idea that Dhiren might be bothered by the topic didn't even cross her mind.
