Listen Here, Sweetheart

Lukina grinned, her tail wagging as Rœkia arrived and confirmed that she had in fact found meadowsweet. She listened as her cousin spoke, surprised to learn they'd be gathering the root and not the flowers or the leaves. The last time they'd done a lesson on meadowsweet they'd used flowers and the leaves but not the root and she squinted at the dirt and frowned. She didn't like to do much digging, especially in moist, muddy earth. Her retractable claws got gunky and she hated the feeling but this was a sacrifice she'd have to make. Lukina got to digging and between her work and Rœkia's they soon freed the plant from the earth.
