Treepie! he called joyously, spotting her patchwork pelt amongst the foliage and making a beeline towards her. He reached to embrace her if she'd allow, pulling her close to his chest for a long moment before stepping back, grinning.

They'd had a fair bit of interaction since the big gathering, sure, but it had been a while since he'd found her one-on-one like this.

He hoped Tikaani had told her anything and everything about the great hunt, just like they had practiced. Perhaps next time, Treepie would be there right alongside them.
