Moonspear We move like the ocean

Only when she entered the home stretch, passing the caldera on the way, did a realization strike Wildfire. She could not afford yet another distraction waylaying her, so she slowed to a stop near the edge of Bramblepoint and howled a message: "Happy birthday, @Nightjar!" She very nearly called for her sister too, before remembering that @Raven was no longer at the caldera. Her smile faltered somewhat, though she sent a silent birthday wish Raven's way too, wherever she was. She paused a moment longer, wondering about her parents and their new litter—had they been born yet?—before Wildfire's feet began moving again. She wouldn't be able to see them just yet anyway and it was time go to home.

The instant she hit the boundary, Wildfire threw up another breathlessly exhilarated howl. "@Floki, I'm back!" She almost added, "It's my birthday!" but she didn't necessarily want the entire pack overhearing that part. Wildfire didn't really fancy being the center of attention, though she hoped she and her beau could commemorate this day in some small way. Although travel-weary and a bit footsore, she didn't wait for him to answer or come find her; the returned scout began to scale the mountain, hoping to meet him somewhere in the middle.
