Momma knows best

As Speedy and Mohe exited the den, her father taking his place to watch over her, Malila was just being pulled out of her sleep. It could have been the switch from one parent to the other, or the absence of her brothers close by scent. But more than likely, it was the tantalizing order of rabbit that still lingered, that roused her.

Blinking her eyes open blearily, Malila popped her head up just in time to see the retreating forms of her mom and brother. She stayed put a moment longer to bask in the affections of Emrik, batting at his ears with her paws...planting soft kisses on his cheek. "C'mon outside with me." She chirped brightly, rolling to her feet without waiting for an answer, sure he would follow.

"I'm late again...sorry." She said with a sheepish smile, but her tail was going a mile a minute. Her eyes fluttered in delight as she felt the gentle blades of grass tickle her belly. The soil still smelled rich, but the scattered wildflowers not as potent. Sneaking up beside Mohe, instantly drawn to the rabbit. The ears in particular, got her attention, biting at them.
