Some kind of kerfuffle startled Sindre awake, her eyes snapping wide open. She was instantly afraid that one of her siblings had gotten into trouble and her blurry vision swam with images of puppies covered in porcupine quills and skunk stink. The yearling lurched forward and poked her head through the tangle of vines that made up her temporary shelter. Her gaze darted around in search of the problem. "Oh, please," she thought to herself, "don't let it be a bear." Of course what she laid eyes on wasn't a bear or a porcupine or an indignant skunk, but it was most certainly still a problem. Sin's eyes narrowed in annoyance. She'd been prepared to risk life and limb for that little loud mouth and what was he doing? Just being a noisy pest. "Little brothers," she groused to herself. If they weren't dirty they were noisy and if they weren't either of those they were getting into trouble out of earshot. Of course she was painting with broad strokes, but eh. It was too early for fair assessments. She slunk back under the bush and flopped down again, intent on going back to sleep. Let the bears have him now. Sindre pinched her eyes shut and scowled into the darkness, her expression suggesting that she intended to force herself back to sleep by sheer force of will if necessary. The yearling was a little low on sleep as of late. While she might not have shown it she was genuinely concerned for the safety of her siblings and without the guard she was trying to shoulder far too much responsibility. What if they couldn't catch enough food? What if another storm rolled in and split the group again? Those kinds of questions were keeping her up at night. An innocent and clearly excited yelp was too much for the sleep deprived yearling. In an instant her irritation spilled over and she half wormed, half lunged through the vines so she could hiss in a low voice, "Dom! Shut UP. I'm trying to SLEEP. God, you're so annoying." |
