There was a puppy. In her bed. Staring at her.

Who's puppy? How did it get here? There were only two parents left on the entire island and they were hers, so where did this one come from? Why was it wet?

The puppy giggled and she flinched, jerking upright and wheeling wildly out of the den. It followed her intently with its eyes, but wouldn't come outside.

What was she... supposed to do? She couldn't leave it here, but she hadn't a clue who it belonged to. She had to do something, but who in the world would know what to do with a strange puppy?

...Oh.

Blinking the rain out of her eyes, her gaze glued to the kid, Bragi raised her voice and called tentatively into the rain, Uh... Cupid?
