Dragoncrest Cliffs Cordierite

sequoia slipped off, slowly and without any injury, of course, but portia's head still turned quickly. not wanting to deter her from doing what she so desired-- but also a bit fearful she'd hurt herself-- portia craned her neck to give sequoia a slight boost onto her back via her rump, retreating to view her daughter to make sure she was stable. "be careful, hun," she said softly, smile on her lips as always, before looking back at dacio, who demanded her attention as always. he kissed at an outstretched paw before plopping himself against her chest. portia gazed down at him lovingly, and he did the same. 

oh, those puppy eyes-- portia was such a sucker for them-- but who wasn't? 

"oh baby baby," she purled, bending to kiss him softly before using her non-crippled leg to curl around him, keeping him nice and safe where he was. and then she glanced back at sequoia, curious what her daughter was thinking of the world from a new vantage point.
