Neverwinter Forest I’m not dealing with the real world anymore

Dad fell to the ground with a grunt, eliciting excited giggles from Nuala. She took advantage of the situation and leaped on top of him, offering a playful growl and tugging on the fur of his shoulder. 

When he sat up, she slid down to the ground and sitting between his front paws, she stared up at him as he spoke. She didn't really understand all of what he asked her except for the part about her brothers eating all the food. Normally, that would be enough to make her push her way in and take more than her share, and she even looked over at them and briefly considered shoving between them and offering her bony shoulder to Finín's side—but dad's attention was far more coveted by the spotty girl. She looked back at Mal and tilted her head before sliding down to chew on his leg, clearly stating that she was content where she was. 

She continued working on his leg until he mentioned going somewhere. Nuala lifted her head and stared up at him, her eyes widening with excitement. Go! Go! she told him, her tail thumping against the ground. She wanted nothing more than for Dad to take them somewhere they hadn't been before.
