Is she abandoning him?? Andrew takes a few tentative steps toward the dumpster to look behind it, but when he doesn't see her reemerging further down the alley, he realizes that maybe she wants privacy and holds back.

He takes in a sharp breath when instead of a crow, a little white mammal appears. Is that a weasel? No, weasels aren't white. Same family, though, obviously. "Is that you?" he asks, dropping into a crouch and holding out a hand. He's not sure what exactly he intends to do, but it doesn't seem politic to just reach out and grab her up.
