[oh, jesus christ. she's just a font of boundless energy. even livio, who could shoot most people dead before they even saw him draw, has trouble following her movements. puppies are just wild like that, he guesses.
... he recalls wolfwood affectionately complaining about her taking 30 minutes in the snow, for as quick as she is about it now. yes, angelina is a good girl.
liv lets her sniff, watches her to familiarize himself with her movements and personality more. he's going to have to get used to her.
and when she stops, he lifts his head to follow the point of her nose. he can't even really imagine what sort of unfamiliar, frightening things she can sense, even the morning after, from across the river. despite his anxieties, livio finds himself stepping towards angelina, standing over her as if to shield her.]
... I don't want you to be scared, but there's a very bad thing in the woods. The... scary air keeps it away most of the time. But last night, it came into the town. That's why you have to stay near the house... or near me. I'll protect you, Angelina.
