You're cute when you're worried," she muttered. "Your eyebrows get all scrunched together." You are not going to die while I owe you a favor," I said. "Why did you take that knife?" You would've done the same for me. ↗

If it would benefit you, I would kill every wolf here. But there are things that you need to do -- and interfering with that is not protecting, not in my book. The best way for me to protect you is to encourage you to be able to protect yourself. ↗
