[When he first got back, Tig didn't think much of the return. Field trip's over, nothing to see, business as usual.
Except when everything's settled back in, some of the novelty of the trip worn off and the new normal re-established, that's when Tig takes his time to check back in with people. Most of them are there but there's one that's palpably absent, and it's what has him texting her when there are probably plenty of just as good methods that aren't as immediate. The howl he hears certainly spurs his fingers on for a slightly different reason, but still.]
