Nice try.
But before you go and get all grumpiddy grump at Fig, I just want it to be known that it was 100% Fenn's idea. She was the first one to get bored. She was the first one to step outside of the den. She was the first one to get bored again and bounce off after Towhee. Fig was completely innocent. When @Fennec first stepped outside, Fig had paced back and forth at the mouth of the den, whimpering like a mother fucker for a good five minutes before he calmed down enough to creep out after her. He was just feeling comfortable again Fenn decided it was time to get into more trouble. His first response was to once again pace around, whimpering like mad. But then she was out of sight, and he had no choice. He ran after her.
And that's the story I'm sticking to. If Starr's post says otherwise, just ignore it, she's wrong.
After a little while of travel, the excitement of what they were doing began to catch up to Fig. His tail began to wag as they walked and explored and he even giggled a few times, particularly when he'd had to race to Fenn and bodily redirected her away from the edge of a stream (silly Fenn!), or when he'd run ahead to snatch a large stick out of her path before she tripped on it (she's the silliest sister!). So by the time they caught up with their wayward Aunt, Fig was thoroughly enjoying himself.
Right up until... Well, until they caught up with their wayward Aunt. Then, he was terrified again. The moment he spotted the adults, Fig made to grab Fenn by the scruff and pull her down into the grass with him to hide (her attempting to waltz right up to them was NOT the good kind of silly). When she resisted, he whined urgently to make her stop, anxious to not be so loud that he would draw attention to themselves, but also trying to be loud enough that she knew this was not a drill. They were totally boned if they didn't hide like now.

Fenn is welcome at all times and will in fact make me sad if she doesn't show up.
