He recoiled and Towhee threw her head back and laughed, sounding a lot like a donkey being murdered while in the throes of passion. She glanced downward again just in time to catch the last few words: "—did you eat?" She snorted, equally inelegantly, and batted her eyelashes as she answered, -"Everything."-

Feeling lighter on her feet after dumping that load, Towhee picked up the pace. By the time they came full circle, dusk had descended on the slopes, casting half the caldera into shadow. Her bladder felt utterly exhausted, not to mention her feet and legs. She might have to talk to Eljay about quick ways to treat minor inflammation.

But in the meantime, she sat, a yawn nearly tearing her face apart before Towhee caught Reyes's eye. -"Thanks for the assist, Reyes. I think we earned a snack. I don't know about you but I have plenty of room now."- She patted her belly, smirking. -"C'mon,"- she coaxed, rolling back onto all fours with a stifled groan as she led the way upward toward the rendezvous site.
