Sand Between My Toes

Tamsyn’s ears perked forward to listen closely to Natha’s explanation. She started trying to pick out the bear shape until her friend began to draw the shape in the sand. She had to agree that the shape the stars made didn’t quite make what she would have imagined as a bear shape, but seeing her rendition of it did help her find it in the sky. Tam smiled and her tail wagged happily against the dark sand. ”I see it! I agree, no bear I’ve ever seen has had a tail like that.” She laughed lightly and for a while she was just happy to be learning and spending time with someone kind enough to teach her. ”That’ll be so helpful to know later when I’m out exploring again.” Her mint green eyes scanned over the other stars curiously, commenting, ”I wonder how many other constellations there are... It feels like there’s an endless number of stars. Do you know any others?”
