Of course she was glad to have them. Fennec felt a little indignant as her mom didn't immediately cheer up, mainly because she wasn't sure what else she could do.  Obviously if Towhee had kids that would be awesome, but would it be so bad really if she didn't?  She didn't need more, not with her and Fig around.

Here was her first taste of that jealousy, a feeling she and Figment might talk about over the next few weeks as Towhee continued to mourn her chances.  She'd get over it and eventually chalk it up to an adult weirdness she couldn't understand, but for now, it settled in her as she followed Towhee silently and inscrutably.

Of course she'd be alright.
