Ouroboros Spine Here where memories reside

It was both painful and freeing when Ajei stepped into her mother's den. She breathed deep. Her mother's scent fading, but still there. She looked around with gentle delight and then slowly began to pull furs from innards and laying them in the sun.

She sneezed a few times, and blinked. She swung her tail and began to slowly clean the dust. Her whole body bowing into the work. A soft hummed working song.

Can be a cameo if someone else wants to pop in.

Arrluk remained quiet and at a distance. He sun bathed while laying on his belly, chewing at his front claws. White rimmed ears flickering as he listened to Ajei's humming. She moved in and out of the den. Tidying it up after such a long while of no use. He would keep back and simply enjoy the time to relax, lest Ajei call for him to help with her work. He knew that likely so, hard memories would turn up with the dust and felt she needed to do this task at her own pace and privacy.

Ajei stopped and took a moment to just breathe. Though the air was brisk and cold. Her own pelt felt a little warm and she panted. She would need to remember to take a bath. Perhaps it was time to dig out a different wrap for her shoulders. She traced a paw over some of the furs that had been Shikobas. 

She caught a glimpse of dark and white and trotted towards it. Hi Arrluk. She settled beside him. He didn't need to get up, she was only taking a small break anyway.
