Because I can take care of myself! [ her voice raises in her anger. nymeria bares her teeth. ]

[debtor]

[He balls up his fists at his side.]

Just because you can doesn't mean you have to!

[wolfchild]

You helped already! You can pat yourself on the back so go away!

[debtor]

[His jaw tightens, gaze dropping, tone bordering on imploring,]

Cat...

[wolfchild]

[ that is not my name, she wants to scream. she turns away from him without a word. ]

[She gets her wish; he doesn't follow, this time.

If he says anything, he's sure she'd only yell at him again - if he tries to go after her, she'll waste more energy fighting it, and that's the last thing she should be doing. He doesn't know how else to help. So his only response is a quiet, frustrated exhale, and a step backwards, conceding despite what he'd said.

He'll have to trust she's right, and she'll be fine on her own.]
