Moonspear after rain

sister seal went on to talk a lot, and truthfully the boy didn't quite understand all that she'd said. but when the words stopped and the older girl looked to him for confirmation that he understood, he simply offered a happy grin and an excited "o'tay!"

he moved to position himself against the wall where seal had pointed, a glimmer of playfulness in his eyes. the older girl squinted her eyes shut and begun to sing, and so acrux inched himself closer with an excited tail propelling him forward. 

the older child's eyes burst open, and acrux stumbled his way forward more, only to be redirected back towards the start again. ah, he got it now! 

he walked back towards the wall again, this time with determination upon his features. he'd get her this time!
