Oh yes, our reunions are wonderful!
The vulpine told him. They would chat and gossip, eat, tell stories of all kinds, share their experiences and some stuff they had learned. They stayed up late into the night chattering like sparrows. Why suspicions? It's just a family gathering, nothing to be worried about. Autumn said. Yes, cougars could be scary, but they needed their family time together. Even if it scared small animals, they still had the right to get together and have fun sometimes.

Autumn chuckled loudly at that. What would they expect? The wild would proceed to be whatever it was. But she wouldn't want cougars getting ideas that weren't just wild, but mean. No insult to Calbrach- but she'd had a run-in with a cougar or two before at Silvertip, neither of who were particularly friendly to the fiery furball and her cousins. But ideas that were just wild, but not mean, were cool with Autumn. Wild ideas should be expected in the wild! She chuckled with a grin in response to the cougar gentleman.

Autumn giggled at his obviously fake snarl in jest, a natural smile filling her face. No way, Jose! Next thing you know critters will start expecting us to walk to our hind legs and make well-planned homes out of twigs. She chuckled. Her father had told her myths of strange beings who did these things and were apparently civilized, which was her reference. Autumn didn't beleive in the myths, but they were an amusing thought to the fiery girl.

Autumn nodded thoughtfully when he said that a twig home couldn't be much different than living under the trees. As for the comment about tripping over your own tail, it was a topic she was all too familiar with. Once I tried dancing on two legs. I tripped over my own tail and fell flat on my face in the dust! She giggled at the memory. She felt the same about Calbrach, so far he didn't seem annoyed by her high pitched giggles or her too-optimistic personality, or her getting off topic. Most found these things about her annoying and shallow, but if Calbrach thought that, he sure hadn't said so.

Autumn jumped aside with a high pitched little eep! Autumn chuckled at Calbrach on the ground, rolling around laughing uncontrollably. I'm glad we both joke well! She giggled, her orange eyes filled with joy. She really liked this Calbrach, he was a great friend- kind, a gentleman, and funny. The thought struck her that if he was a fox she might even have a crush on him, but being a cougar she simply couldn't feel like that towards him. Calm down, Calbrach, you'll practically kill yourself laughing! She chuckled again with a shake of her head and a smile. She glanced at the sky. It was getting late, around sunset. Calbrach... I think I need to go for the night. I hope to see you again- I won't forget! Goodbye! She said, slightly saddened at the fact that she needed to leave, but happy at her time spent with the cougar gentleman. She really did want to see him again- and hoped she would. With a final glance at Calbrach, she turned and vanished into the undergrowth of the forest, her fiery tail the final thing to disappear from sight.
