wanna take a toke?

Fuji was in agreement. Mumma had been so busy lately, the least her girls could do was help her stock her garden properly. But why they had to come somewhere so dry was anyone's guess. The pink girl wrinkled her nostrils, her tongue sticking to the roof of her mouth as she continued to breathe the dry air in and out. It was dusty out here, and she kept catching glimpses of Chips out of the corner of her eye. No doubt a grown-up would be along to fetch them at any moment and their plans would be thwarted!

It seemed Rheum had the same idea though, as she rushed towards the smelliest bush in the world and started ripping at the leaves. It looked big and heavy, and far too much for Fuji to drag home, not to mention she didn't want that stink all over her fur. She turned her attention turned instead to a creeping ground cover that was growing not too far away. Its fat green leaves looked like they were full of water and its whispy yellow flowers stood out starkly against the sand. She gently lifted its trailing tails to try and find where the roots were but kept finding little bundles along where the runners trailed across the ground. She didn't know if it was important to take the whole plant, or if one of these little sprigs would do, but she supposed, if she bought the whole thing, it might have more of a chance of being useful.

Her finger-like paws scooped at the sand and rocks beneath the plant, watching Rheu with some concern. Her own plant extracted and placed to the side she came closer, starting to dig at the base of the plant. "Don' rip it up too much! It'll die from stress!" It was a new word to the girl, but one she had heard used quite often recently, mostly that she was the one causing it, and there might have been a mutter of her driving someone to an early grave, but she didn't care. It didn't matter when it came to other wolves, they were tough, but plants were delicate.
