Swiftcurrent Creek not so secret agent

Maera's mystified mewl (apart from being a feat of alliteration genius) forced Bazi to choke back a giggle. She opened one eye into a narrow slit, squinting at the confused girl and her trampled plant. It didn't seem to occur to the most Tuwawi-like of the pups to turn around and investigate - but before Bazi could choose another noise to make, a second, monochromatic little body launched out of the den like a fat, fuzzy bat.. and fell flat on her face.

Bazi's insides twisted themselves into knots with the effort it took to keep the laughter in.

Jökull seemed slightly more aware of her surroundings than her sister. A pair of searching little eyes - defiantly dry despite the fall - fastened on the Beta's squinting face. She could almost feel terror rise in the pup's throat at the sight of her: I've been discovered! Before the second pup could warn the first, she swiftly pushed herself onto her elbows and blew the loudest, wettest, most impressively fart-like raspberry she possibly muster: "PRRRRRRLLLLT!"
