[color=82ca9d]"I'm only as tame as the situation calls, Sam. When a family finds two strays out in the cold, do they welcome the docile one into their home? Or the aggressive?" [/color]

Susprise flitted across the Geri's face at the other werewolf's response, not having expected the frankness nor the depth of reasoning. Sam had a tendency to expect little to nothing from others, often taking on the brunt of any task due to that distrust. She never did so with any ill thoughts towards others, but simply felt more secure in never counting on others. Common sense often seemed absent, which led to her presuming little else of value was present the majority of the time. 

She was considering offering James some diluted apology, since she wasn't a woman easily capable of deep, sincere and tear-filled apologies or similar nonsense, but allowed the words to die unsaid when he stepped closer.  She was above average height for a woman, but James' proximity caused her to lift her chin for a better visual of his eyes, intrigued by his behavior in spite of herself.

[color=0072bc]“Fair enough,”[/color] she murmured thoughtfully, pleased by the empathy that had led him to nearly confront two other werewolves at once. Finding herself feeling tense and nervous with James watching her so intently, Sam flashed him a grin before pulling the sliding door open, stepping inside, and sweeping a hand towards the interior. 

[color=0072bc]“This is our home. Welcome... and don't mind the ill manners you'll surely see,”[/color] she mentioned rather dryly. She glanced around quickly to make sure there wasn't anything too absurd happening in the immediate area. Satisfied, Sam gave James a light push in the direction of the kitchen, determined to find food before someone swept her away into pack business.
