She bounced through the snow that had accumulated around the plains, creating a path back to the den for Marigold and Dandelion to follow. The antlered fox had heavily protested the attempted trip to go out and find herbs in this kind of weather, but Briar just couldn't stand sitting around the pack lands doing nothing for one more second. Dandelion had given squeaky bleats of protest the whole way and Briar had suggested maybe leaving the dik-dik home, but Marigold had insisted on bringing him and his little saddlebags along just in case they did manage to find something to bring home. "I'm not going to carry your stuff, you hard headed pup!" she had said to which Briar just as vehemently responded, "Fine! But he's your responsibility to lead him through the snow then!" In the end they both had to work on clearing a path to get back since a snow storm had whipped up while they were gone, but both of them were too stubborn to admit it. She got them over to the little shelter that stood against one of the trees outside of the family's den that Briar had created for Dandelion to live in after she got quite a few disgruntled responses to his squeaks in the middle of the night. She thought it was adorable, but her siblings didn't seem to think so. Once the dik-dik was situated inside his little hut and his leather harness was tied to the tree, Briar turned back toward the den just in time to see Marigold duck inside to go warm up. The Princess rolled her eyes at her companion and called after her, "Oh come on! It's not even that cold!" That was an absolute lie, but she wasn't about to make it look like she wasn't more tough than a fox. With both of her companions seemingly refusing to embark on any more adventures with her today, she huffed and turned her attention back out across the plains in search of some other form of entertainment. She caught a flash of dark feathers in the sky over head and looked up in time to catch Marshal's form disappear past some trees ahead of her. With a grin she took off through the snow again in the opposite direction from where her father's companion was heading since she thought that for sure she'd find her father at the end of it. Sure enough, her intuition paid off and Sirius' dark figure came into view through the bare trees. As much as she would have liked to sneak up on him, all this crunchy snow made it nearly impossible to even try. Instead she just bounced up to him with a grin, hopping up onto her back legs putting her snow covered front paws on his shoulder so that she could reach his cheek and give him an excited, loving kiss. "Hey, dad! What are you up to? Where is Marshal going?" |
