Smothered

Through the fog someone appeared, not noticing him until he was much closer than she expected. Her head snapped around to look at him, eyes widening comically before she turned her attention back to the crystal. She was determined to get it off, but her paws weren't quite dexterous enough to finish the job. Kaija let out an annoyed little huff as she leaned back and eyed the guy with the antlers. "See this crystal here? On this rock? I ain't ever seen anything like this before, and I want it," she explained matter-of-factly. Possessing it suddenly seemed like a need as strong as even eating or drinking - she'd keep trying until she made it happen. "Woah," she commented as it glowed brighter, pulsing in a steady rhythm. With that she went back to working at it, smacking it hard and wincing as it refused to budge. "There's another over there, I think, if you want one," she suggested, gesturing to the other side of the rock.
