<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family:Open Sans">"I've been here," Eivind said, another attempt at a joke, though a tasteless one given the situation. They'd found him though and now his situation didn't seem so bleak. Blue was close and for once he was happy that his solitude was interrupted. That, and they'd brought water. He was so thirsty and Blue warned him before sending it down. Sig listened to see how long it took it to connect with the ground. It made a resounding noise when it it, not that long before it did luckily but the smaller wolf also knew that it didn't much to break a person's body.<br/>
<br/>
The drop tented the canteen but it didn't damage it beyond that and Eivind was able to lean over to reach it, ignoring any discomfort in his thigh. He unscrewed the top and started guzzling before realizing he was liable to vomit if he didn't take it a slow. Despite still being thirsty he set the remaining water to the side so that he could sip from it a little at a time. He laid his head back and made a noise of appreciation. Though he still felt like shit, something to drink went a long way in making him feel a little more comfortable. He didn't even care about food at that point though he was sure the hunger would come later.<br/>
<br/>
The two above spoke of what they were going to do but despite Eivind not wanting Blue left alone that was what was happening. There was nothing he could do for it from where he was as Sig so kindly pointed out. Blue wasn't having it either and he might as well try having an argument with the stone in front of him for all the good it would do. He was too tired to protest that much longer. He just hoped Sig hurried and that Blue didn't need to use the rifle. The temperature was dropped and it was bad enough his mate was so close and yet he couldn't touch him. He heard Sig depart, promising to make haste though he knew actually getting back down the mountain would take some time. Not to mention getting back to him in the dark.<br/>
<br/>
When it was only Blue his lover started to ask questions. He was tempted to say something sarcastic again like <i>'I fell</i>, which was obvious but Blue deserved a real answer. He heaved a weary sigh instead trying to recall details.<br/>
<br/>
"I'm not really sure who it was really. Not a large wolf. Not a very remarkable one either. Young. He was a lighter color I guess. Someone from Logren's pack. I saw him and he ran." Probably not out of guilt, but to Eivind who was suspicious of everyone it seemed that way. More than likely he'd ran because he'd seen a larger, more dangerous wolf that wasn't a part of his pack. Eivind didn't say whether he knew or not if he'd ever touched Blue but his intentions were clear enough.   "He's lucky I didn't get a hold of him. Probably knew it too. Did all he could do to get away and when I didn't let up we went for a detour in the mountains. If I ever cross paths with him again I'll rip his fucking throat out." It didn't matter if Blue told him that wolf hadn't done anything or not. Eivind was furious either way. He took a few moments to just breath, even the simple act off talking making his feel tired but he needed whatever he could get from his mate. <br/>
<br/>
"I'm tired, Blue," Eivind admitted. Not comfortable enough to do more than doze here and there. Tired of being trapped as well and looking at the same thing he'd been looking at. "Glad you came looking. Was going a little mad."</span></span>
