Sure enough, it was Dos who arrived through the underbrush and with a present at that. "I was hoping it was you." Elcid welcomed warmly as the fox entered her little hidey-hole. She eyed the rabbit in the fox's jaws and perked her ears up at the sight, straightening up her body a little more in her lay but remaining sure to not put weight on her injured limb. Her tail thumped against the ground with excitement as Dos dropped the rabbit and proclaimed that she had caught it all on her own and without shifting. She nodded her head with an encouraging smile, "Good job!". She sniffed at the rabbit, but couldn't help catching other scents on Dos as well. Dos had told her before that her family lived here, but with the various odors, she wondered just how large her family was. Elcid's own family was large, but she didn't know the majority of her family and siblings. Being the last litter her parents had (and a runt at that) she was largely shunned, then sent away to live with Zane and his mother not long after her birth. Elcid wiggled forward to reach towards the rabbit, then hesitated in grabbing it to eat. It would be rude to eat before Dos. She was the one who had caught it, and plus it would give her an excuse not to eat immediately in front of Dos only to throw up shortly after. "You should have the best bits since you caught it." she encouraged. Then, to quickly try to encourage Dos from refusing to eat first, she tried to change the subject. "Just how big is your family? Do you think I can meet them one day?" |
