Redhawk Caldera E.T. phone home

Fox did her best to explain and allay the child's fears, though Wildfire wasn't entirely convinced. She gave the moon a brief, mistrustful glance, then focused her amber eyes on her mother's face instead. It calmed her instantly. She cuddled closer to her dam, snuggling into the velvety fur on her chest again. There were many people and places Wildfire enjoyed, though right here in her mother's arms had to be at the top of her list.

And that's when Fox decided giving her some space would be good for her, to show her nothing was out there to get her. Wildfire squawked lightly, feeling both cold and strangely disoriented by the small distance. She wasn't so much worried about the moon anymore; she just wanted to be close to her mother. It was late, after all, and the youngster was finally feeling sleepy.

"Cuddles?" she asked in a quiet voice, pawing lightly at one of Fox's slender forelegs even as a yawn stole over her.
