The fish trap that Suzu had made with Swordfish persisted against the tide, tended by the girl and her brothers who often helped out at her request. She found digging up, dragging and piling the driftwood up very exhausting, but the payout had been incredibly satisfying. With time, the tide brought in and left long strands of kelp clinging to the fence of driftwood that she had constructed, simultaneously adding more camouflage and making it more structurally sound. The fence stretched between two large boulders, and when the tide went out, everything that did not slip out around one of them got caught in her home made net.
It made hunting much easier for her. Perched on one of the stones, she could simply lay in the sunshine (or in this case, in the rain) and simply wait for the tide to go out. She watched a few small fish flicker like shards of silver beneath the surface, knowing they would be trapped in her construction. It looked as though a green crab had been cornered as well. Once the water drew back further, she would be able to hop down, and catch all of them with ease. Waiting, for her, was easy.
She looked up when she saw movement in the distance, to see Raelle coming in her direction. She caught sight of the fish that the girl carried, and her eyes glistened. She couldn't help but lick her lips at the sight of it- though she truly didn't expect the more skilled hunter to share with her- and called Raelle over with a quiet bark.
Maybe she would share, if Suzu could promise her that she'd have a snack in about an hour when the tide finally went out.
