Moonspear Work hard and be nice.

The rats didn't have anywhere to go, it seemed, so he cornered them and had to do a little dance to avoid getting his toes bitten as he made a few snaps at them, bottlenecked into a tight corner near the back. He felt one's teeth graze his cheek, and it must've bitten him on the shoulder too- those weird, buck-toothed things did have long teeth- but the entire situation was over in a moment or two. He turned, with one of the rats hanging from his jaws an chuckled it over toward Meerkat. Not the best meal in the world, but edible. The other one he picked up for himself. 

It gave quite a twitch, though, which caused him to jerk his head up in surprise, but at least the ceiling was high enough that he didn't have to worry about hitting his head. With his hind end angled toward the back of the cave, he gave another look upwards to notice that something was glittering from above him- but it wasn't eyes. 

"Hey Meerk," He said, dropping the rat. "Come see this," He said, as he sat down. His eyes fully adjusted now, he realized that what little light did come in through the opening of the cave's mouth, it would hit an angled, but very smoothe wall at the back which then directed the light up toward the ceiling- revealing that embedded in the walls, was some kind of mineral that sparkled dimly in the reflected light. When he reaised his head, he saw what he thought might be stalacmites, but stalacmites generally pointed down toward the ground. These were definitely long, pointed shafts of some type of rock, he thought, though they were almost seethrough, and they criss-crossed in a next of crystal above them. "Okay, this is kinda cool," He admitted.
