Redhawk Caldera today's not so bad

Shame instantly flooded Eljay as he dove face first into the ground, the flowers flying everywhere. He felt like a clumsy idiot, but the fact that Uncle P and Aunt Fox were laughing made him feel a bit better about himself. They didn't make a big deal out of it, and so it was easier for Eljay himself to brush it off, too. Eljay only now noticed Uncle P, who had to have been there all along, and he quickly gathered himself off the ground. "Oh! Sorry, I'm — yes, I'm okay, just, uhm, clumsy," he said, feeling his cheeks flush, and he quickly went to gather the spread flowers. The stems were broken now and they looked kind of crummy, but Eljay hoped that Aunt Fox wouldn't mind too much.

After nosing the cracked flowers together in front of Fox, Eljay glanced up to properly look at her, now no longer diverted by his task. "You're so big!" he blurted out, not realising that his words might be offensive — it was just the first thing that popped into his mind as he looked at Fox, who looked like she might explode and send puppies flying everywhere any moment now. Eljay was actually sort of looking forward to the new puppies, even though he imagined it would be a long time until he was allowed to actually play with them.
