Big Salmon Lake these are the days

Yeah, she didn't take much convincing to lure from the bland, frozen plains, and especially not when Spica suggested they explore. That practically wasn't a question. With their brother off on his own, the other one still missing somewhere, Mom more concerned and preoccupied with all sorts of other matters, and the pack happy and whole even without the twins, it was easy for her to turn her back on all of that to step completely into a world of just her with her sister.

So all of that other garbage did not bother her here, not with the wilds at their disposal with creeks, hills, forests, and all else as they explored on away from home base. As they rounded over one rise, she finally got a good grasp on the lake and again, nothing held her back as she loped towards the shoreline. After doing her own eyeballing of the ice, she perked her ears back up at Spica. Mmm, it should! she decided with a huff and a sharp look back towards the surface of the lake. We're not thaat heavy.. and, it's been all cold lately. I bet.. she reasoned aloud, which while she was possibly on a good track on factors to consider, it might not be the safest of bets to make. Syrma pressed a paw on the ice, testing her weight and her confidence at once. Who's lighter, d'ya think? she snickered, but didn't need an answer because there wasn't one; she knew they matched enough that some stupid ice was not going to tell the difference.
