"Something on your mind?" Khaki sat beside the smaller molly with a clumsy lean against his rump, as if he sat faster than he anticipated. His flat expression broke for a moment, the fur around his eyes crinkling in the briefest amusement before settling back onto Pixie. The sting of want in his belly had grown dull, a sensation that sadly no longer kicked him into panic. It's persistence was no longer agonizing but present as any other function like breathing.

Inhale, hungry. Exhale, hungry. Blink, hungry.

Much of his efforts saw to Pixie's maw, anyhow. Occasionally he would steal a bit before his offer, but nothing greedy. Just enough to survive, as anyone else was.

"Doesn't look great, does it."

Pixie had been absentmindedly watching a leaf drift across the ground with the breeze, deep in thought, and startled at the interruption of contemplation. Her head swiveled around to face Khaki in surprise, though it quickly melted into quiet happiness at the sight of Khaki. "Dad! " Pixie gave a little purr, and scooted herself closer to Khaki until she was pressed against his side, both for the sake of sharing warmth, and to simply take comfort in the presence of her father.

Expression turning somber, she shook her head in agreement with Khaki's statement and turned her gaze back to the drifting leaf, it had caught against a bush and was now flapping in the breeze, it's journey halted before it could truly begin. "I'm... worried things will take a turn for the worst soon." How soon, she couldn't say. Perhaps when leaf-bare truly fell upon them. Perhaps even before that. Fray's death would surely shake the colony to the core in many ways, despite it having been inevitable for a long while now.

Pixie leaned a little more into Kahki's side with a snort. "Dad, "Doesn't look great" is the biggest understatement of the season."
