Dragoncrest Cliffs Dance with my dogs in the nighttime

maybe a few months ago blixen would have shot like an arrow to her mother's call, but today she is tired and still processing, for once glad to patrol alone (though she's really gotta get furi back on schedule with her). not that she doesn't trot briskly (okay, jog) to her adult doppleganger once she gets the call, but she gets there last. 

it's weird. like, yeah, artaax beats her sometimes because he's a goody two shoes momma's boy, but bobby's also there already. she gives him a funny look and glances at artaax, wondering what his assessment of the situation is. to mother, she smiles and says, "hei," reaching out to press her nose against her cheek in greeting. it's been so long since all of them were gathered like this and it's all blixen ever wanted, so if she feels a little choked up and tender -- sue her.
