Germanicus mentioned taking the kids to the arena. Towhee had already taken her pair there a handful of times by now, though she certainly wasn’t opposed. She glanced at them, wondering what Jack and Leo would think.

But then Tierra’s emphatic -Mom!- captured her attention. Towhee grinned and nipped at the yearling’s ruff. She was definitely proud of Tierra, though moreso she was just happy the girl was proud of herself.

With her kids at the forefront of her attention, Towhee naturally peered around for her eldest. Fennec was nowhere to be found. Her lips pursed and she glanced at Killdeer again, giving him an exaggarated wink.

You wanna go with the kids? she said to Maxim, gesturing at Germanicus. I’m gonna go introduce myself to this ‘leisure,’ seeing as I don’t know her, Towhee quipped, striding away with a smile.
