Each of the adults feigned interest in the strip of rabbit meat. Kisu even gave it a playful tug, though Osprey Jr. growled her most savage growl and he gave a small grin and let go. Flicking her tail indignantly, she turned her back on him and romped back toward her parents and Blue Willow, who sat between them with the rabbit's remains slopped in a pile next to her feet.

As was typical for the young, she promptly lost interest in the chunk of meat, which she spat out at her father's feet (he waited to make sure she was done with it before bolting it like a piece of jerky). The smell of it had roused her hunger, so she padded closer to her mother, nosing along the Alpha female's ribcage until she found a teat. She shoved herself beneath Hawkeye's foreleg and suckled aggressively for a moment before Hawkeye's patience thinned and she nudged the pushy puppy away.

Smacking her lips, Osprey Jr. turned and considered joining the other pups again but it appeared they'd all slumped into a pile just inside the den's mouth. Junior curled her lip at this; she wasn't about to waste the day on a nap. Nonetheless, her jaws split wide open in a very large yawn as she sauntered back to Blue Willow, who was the most enticing if only because she was the least familiar.

"Raaaaaw?" Osprey yawped at the Healer, prancing in front of her. No one could be quite sure what the word was supposed to mean, though her shining blue eyes lifted and she smiled, a little kid just wanting someone to play with her.
