Swiftcurrent Creek Have you tried today's special?

Arlette wanted to be mindful of Cygnet but there always seemed to be a thing the child disliked. It was rather discouraging to her that it always was like that, or that it was giving her that feeling. Arlette had just wanted to engage with the child, but she never knew how to. She watched the pups posture. She was relieved to see that Cygnet wasn't too offended with her. Arlette had only wanted to show her happiness towards the child, but even that wasn't appreciated.

The pup did seem to do ask she asked though. She listened and tried to think of the animal she meant. "Some type of bird of prey," she commented slowly, thinking. She repeated the strange sounds the girl just made. She didn't want to disappoint her, but Arlette was a little slumped. "I don't know," she admitted. There were so many, and many screeched like the child just had.
