Ouroboros Spine Sweetness

a bright gem of her lineage, shikoba does not mind the mess and comes to press a sweet kiss to her daughter's temple before looking over her work. "you have a good eye for ripeness," she comes to tell her as her pink tongue comes to taste a few,"perhaps you walk the path of a naturalist."

it was an honorable interest, for the earth held so many incredible and interesting things to be discovered and appreciated. perhaps she secretly was a fighter, but shikoba still did not see such a glint within her daughter. 

"have you been thinking of any talents you wish to pursue in the village?" a polite nudge as she had done so with mojag, though her son was perhaps older when it came to be. ajei was growing, though still so young in the eye of her mother.
