Moonspear steal my sunshine

She stood there, watching as the two came closer together and, eventually, collided. Meerkat's eyes flew wide at this development, unexpected despite her hollering. With a snort, she dashed toward them, picking up on Toad's playful, "I'd say it's a draw!" A great whoosh of air escaped her as she slowed again, nearly falling prey to the mudslide herself. But she managed to stop a few feet from the two, tongue emerging from her mouth in a grinning pant.

-"Now kiss!"- she said with a giggle. Whether or not she meant that, she flicked a forepaw and slung some mud at Toad before abruptly darting forward to nip at her brother. Meerkat then spun on a heel, taking advantage of a second wind as she burst into a run again.

They were meant to hunt, then picnic together while Toad told stories. And maybe they'd get around to that. But Meerkat didn't mind going off plan and hoped the two of them didn't either. Playing some slip-'n'-slide tag sounded a lot more fun right at the moment. She just hoped they both took the bait and—hopefully, maybe—even came after her together.
