Stavanger Bay fighting the system

One drool-covered paw was bad enough, but evidently Charon felt the need to ensure that another one of his sister's feet was thoroughly coated in his saliva as well. Once Liyaní succeeded in freeing her paw from her brother's mouth, relief swelled within her dim puppy mind until she felt Charon's slobbery gums all over a whole different set of her toes.

She was absolutely distraught at that point. A series of squeaky, petrified cries escaped her tiny lungs as she thrashed about. Then, without warning, she felt Charon's weight topple off of her and her paw slipped free of his gross, moist mouth. Still, Liyaní was anything but pacified in that moment and in her distress and frustration, she squirmed forward until her tiny snout bumped straight into her sibling's face.

The sooty girl wasted no time in opening her mouth and drooling onto Charon's bitty button nose. Its texture was much different than what Liyaní was used to, and she mewled with delighted curiosity to have discovered something new to inspect with her gums and her tongue.
