After spending some time with @Kukutux and the healers, Towhee and Bushtit remained huddled at the camp shared by @Reyson, @Meadow and their kids. If she’d caused a stir by bringing her baby here, it had hopefully died down after the first week. The day she and @Towhee Jr had agreed upon approached swiftly—much too swiftly for her tastes.

She was very much enjoying being among so many and so much. The food was great, of course, but the company was incredible. Towhee hadn’t realized how lonely and quiet she’d felt these past few months. She realized she didn’t want to go back to the copse. She would, of course, but coming here had definitely been something of a revelation.

This evening, she kept a watchful eye on Bushtit as he chewed on an elk hoof a passerby had gifted him. Towhee grew stiff as the temperatures dropped and rose onto all fours to begin a stretching routine, after which she slung herself back to the ground and dragged her giggling son close for a cuddle.

nose tasted air; heart longed for the sea. 
he was not surprised to see towhee; he did not consider her son's age, only waved a smile toward the woman with a lash of his tail.
"it is good to see you," he murmured, and settled not so close to look out over the mingling crowd of wolves. "so many," the seal hunter commented. "i have enjoyed it. but i miss moontide."
if he thought for a moment, chakliux might be able to hear the ocean.

A pale figure loomed closer through the gathering dusk. Towhee tensed, then relaxed when she realized it was Chakliux. His remark made her wonder when they’d last spoken to one another. Had it been that time when he’d been hunting another wolf? She wasn’t entirely sure.

Bushtit, this is Chakliux, Towhee murmured to her son, who wasn’t paying much attention to anyone in particular, as he was focused upon his plaything. Chakliux, Bushtit. She paused before addressing his comment with her own: I was just thinking along those same lines.

Said lines were more perpendicular than parallel, though Towhee didn’t really plan on sharing her thoughts. She already felt guilty enough without admitting out loud that she didn’t want to go home.

Are Phox and Heph still away on their honeymoon or whatever? she couldn’t help but ask. And how’s Rodyn? And everybody else?
