Nonna squinted at the heap in front of her. A half-sunken machine, three rusted cans, and a hunk of melted plastic. The fattened flies buzzing overhead seemed satisfied, but Giavanna had higher standards than heat and rot.

"Bah. No personality in this batch," She muttered, prodding a can with a claw and promptly wrinkling her nose. Where was the real treasure? The spools of metal, the jingly toys, the shiny nonsense. The no-furs were holding out on them this week, clearly.

She turned, sweeping her gaze across the crew. Her eyes narrowed on one of the younger cats with a greasy sock half-hanging from their mouth. She cringed watching them try to inhale it like a starving baby bird. "Idiota! Spit that out right now or I'll be burying you with it!" She snapped, hobbling forward to snatch it away. The major sighed with a disgusted wiggle of her paw as the soggy article was discarded. "That is not a snack."

Giavonna gave them a long stare before she moved off, wholly unconvinced that they wouldn't try so again. Over the years, it never ceased to amaze her the sorts of things these idiot children were willing to devour. The current batch was not even all that starving! Oh, but if they could fit it in their mouths, to them, it was no different than a fresh mouse.

A little farther off, another was digging with more purpose, tail flicking as they unearthed a scattering of dull screws and scrap. Nonna wandered over, limping slightly with each step.

"What've you got there?" She hummed, leaning in over their shoulder to inspect the efforts of her workers, as any collector of fine goods should.

Gaia stepped quietly, her pale form slipping like smoke through the morning light. Sharp brown eyes scanned the clearing, dispassionate, observant, missing nothing. Her ears caught the soft rustle of movement ahead, the scent of rot pricking faintly at her nose. There, by the edge of the camp, stood her mother watching with a familiar stillness as one of the younger cats rooted through a pile of trash, half-buried beneath windblown leaves and torn cloth. The sound of rummaging was loud in the otherwise quiet space.

Gaia paused.

Her expression didn't shift, though the slightest twitch of her ear betrayed her thoughts. She watched the scene for a moment longer, gaze unreadable, before stepping forward with measured grace. The weight of her presence was like cold stone settling into the air, never hostile, but impossible to ignore. As she approached, her head turned briefly toward Nonna. A nod, not too low, not too casual. Just enough to say: I see you. I respect you.

" Good day, Mama. " she said, voice quiet, clipped, yet not without warmth. It carried only to those meant to hear it. Her attention returned to the cat digging through the refuse. Her ears swiveled forward, sharp and alert. " What is happening here? " Not accusatory. Not gentle either. Just a calm question wrapped in expectation.
