there's a longing for seasons past, where prey was more bountiful and smiles easier to come by. the hardship that has descended upon them is not unlike a hawk's shadow suddenly appearing over you. it is a warning... an omen of impending death... how do you spend those last moments? afraid? regretful?

grieving.

the pull of a smile on her face is half as sincere as it should be, trotting to approach her younger sibling with a nose outstretched to try to nuzzle his cheek in greeting. "I hope your paws have been more reliable than mine," she starts, forcing a small laugh in spite of her failings, in spite of the way her stomach grumbles with its emptiness. he too had bigger things to worry about than himself, neatly tucking himself in her heart right next to Hawthorne. she'd have new family to care for soon... in the form of blood and bond each, unique and close all the same.

"Your fur is a mess," she fusses, noting the tangled leaves that adorn him like camouflage. "How's Hazel? You two getting enough to eat? Have you been making sure Chanterelle has been eating too?" not that much older than the two but still she feared for her littermates like they were vastly younger.
