Sparrow let out a call of her own and thankfully Aurielle didn't take long to show up. Kaija wasn't sure how long she could sit here looking like a doofus before she got bored and left Sparrow at the border. She found herself beaming over at Aurielle as she strode up, looking as proud as ever of what she'd found. They were so cool, even if they were.. toxins? Were they really poisonous? Aurielle was old (but not as old as her mom, she didn't think) so surely she knew better about - well, everything. Her eyes widened with surprise at the thought.
"Yeah, I went to find a gift for my mom. And... for you!" She scrambled quickly, trying to cover her ass. She noted that there was a bit of seriousness to Aurielle's tone that reminded her of her mom's tone sometimes. Sweet talking sometimes helped, even if it meant she was fibbing a bit. She lifted a paw to bat at the mushroom on one of her tusks, popping it off and letting it roll on the ground, batting it toward her. "It's pretty! I didn't eat one or anything, I swear. I was more afraid of-" Her voice cut off sharply.
Mushroom-loving cave bears. She wanted to say it but it sounded stupid in her head, especially when Aurielle asked if her mother had given her permission to go out. "I did! She said - well, I think she said yes. It sounded kind of like yes at least. A little grunt. Like this," she tried to mirror a dismissive sound that Justice might make, but it sounded more like a fart than any kind of agreement. She grimaced a little at her impression and glanced hurriedly over at Sparrow as if this near-stranger might help back her up. She was cool, after all! She'd made sure no bears attacked them and that was pretty cool in Kaija's book.
