Blue smiled softly, thought the mouse was no more than a mouthful, just a snack. She did not tell her son this, instead she bent and grasped it. Chewing, making sure to go mm, yummy, she swallowed and smacked her lips. Leaning forward, she tickled her son's side, nuzzling him gently.

Blue chuckled as Connie kept pace with her longer legs, she has shortened her sides. She couldn't help the skitter of amusement, at his puffed out chest. His tail went nonstop, he was clearly pleased and that was wonderful.

It took Blue a moment to realize what he said, but then she nodded. Yes, I have been to the bay. It is pretty there. Perhaps, your father and I will take you there sometime. Would you like that?

She took him to the nearby creek, being sure to stay as far away from the deeper parts as possible. She turned and looked at him a stern expression on her gaze. There should be shinies here near and in the water, but you listen Constantine. You do not come here without a grown up. Do you understand my little one? It is dangerous.
