Daine lowers her paw, glad to have gotten her point across (so far as she can tell). She watches with amused approval as Gabriel pets Sarge and Molly. Sarge is giving off a distinctly smug vibe, and she remembers his earlier insistence that everyone likes dogs when they're in need of cheering up. The look he throws her says, See? about as clearly as if he'd said it aloud.

It takes her longer to figure out what Gabriel's asking than it ought to; just about everyone else who knows her has met the dogs, too. When she remembers that Gabriel hasn't, she nods. Pity she can't introduce them, though it's not as if Gabriel could repeat their names even if she had any way of telling him what they were.
