Two moons, I can feel myself start catching on fire.

Compared to where they'd just come from this place was practically heaven. Fresh water was readily available, and there had been no shortage of small game for them to fill their little bellies with at almost any and all hours of the day. Boneset wasn't sure she'd ever eaten as much as she had within the last 24 hours, even when they had been with their momma. After having shared a delicious rabbit that they'd caught together for lunch, Bones told Ducky that she was going to go get a sip of water. The truth of the matter was that Duckweed was having a harder time with recent circumstances than Boneset was, and she wanted to see if she could find something in the area that would bring even the smallest of smiles to her sister's face. The problem was that she'd have to be swift about it if she didn't want to cause Ducky any more stress, but Bones was pretty good at using her head to think fast. To an outsider it might look like the young pup was running around the prairie without rhyme or reason, but there was actually a method to her madness. Shortly after walking away form Duckweed she'd discovered the plant itself, boneset. It was then that she sort of formed an idea for what the gift should be, but she knew she probably wouldn't be lucky enough to find actual duckweed out here too on such a short notice. The girl ended up settling on a nice bouquet of meadowsweet. It was a fluffy and delicate flower, kinda funny looking, which sort of reminded her of her sister if she reached far enough, but it was going to have to do. After collecting the boneset and the meadowsweet the pup ran around and grabbed as many sticks as she could find. The design was that the flowers together would represent the two sisters. It was supposed to signify that everything was going to be okay because at the end of the day they still had each other. Bone's wasn't 100 percent sure her sister would really get it, but the sentiment of receiving a gift would probably still be there. The sticks were included because.. hey, they were nice sticks and who didn't like chewing on some nice sticks? A little sweaty, the young pup started making her way back to where Ducky had been, carefully carrying the strange gift in her maw. "Wuckweee!" she called as she caught site of the girl a short distance away. |
