Redhawk Caldera Just as I took the world on my shoulders

actually gonna sneak this up during my lunch break

Fennec had offloaded Killdeer again on her mom while she went out to gather some supplies. She enjoyed taking him with her on patrols, but outside was a step too far. He enjoyed spending time with his aunts and uncles anyway and it gave her a little space. Something that could be good and bad. This time was the latter; she hadn't only gone out for that reason, and she still hadn't found a trace. Not being able to kill that hope was probably the worst part. She felt like an idiot.

When she got back, she sensed someone nearby, though she could her the pups playing in the near distance. She could identify who it was almost immediately - @Towhee. Hey mom, she said, the greeting a little curt. He wasn't too much of a shit, was he?

Ever since the incident a bit prior, she'd been trying to keep as close a leash on him as she could. At least until she was sure he could hold his own if anything happened again.
