She hadn't been asleep long when the sound of someone approaching had her snapping awake. She relaxed immediately when she recognized it as Germanicus, and could hardly be upset by the interruption when she detected that he came with lunch. She hadn't paused to eat over the course of the trip, and the only opportunity would have involved fighting a wolverine for its kill.

Bad news, she gave us twenty four hours before there's an army on our borders. I told her our love couldn't be stopped, so I guess now it's war. Fennec's mouth twitched up in a smile, and she poked at the bird with her nose. Is this to share? Outrunning mom's attack dogs has me starved.

The entire visit had actually gone way better than she'd expected, and she wondered secretly if there were things her mom thought but hadn't been willing to share. Maybe not, though - Towhee lecturing her on relationships without love would have been pretty funny. Fennec didn't even have to bring up failed marriages to counter that one! Meerkat's existence was more than enough by itself.

She let the implications sit there though while she waited for an answer on the food. He'd probably know immediately that she was full of shit - if Towhee had actually sent someone after her, no way she'd have made it back without getting caught.
Fenn is blind, and as she's older, will take all of her character insight from tone.  If you are ever uncomfortable with an assumption she makes, please let me know!
