trees make the worst frenemies, they’re too good at throwing shade

None of them were quite two yet so when their mother suggested marking instead of following vines, Scald's head gave a light tilt. She had taught them about marking territory, using it to their advantage and disadvantage, but he hadn't thought about using it in the sense of navigation. When he lifted his nose slightly and really gave the air a good sniff, he could scent a variety of different scents. Is that what everyone did? He honestly liked his idea of following the vines though. It seems less exhausting than scratching or peeing on a bunch of trees. Plus these trees had thorns... Well so did the vines though.

Looking around, he realized that there were a lot of vines and those vines were all the same color. Really, they all looked the same. Okay so maybe his mom had a point. Being able to distinguish his vines from not his vines would be hard. "Just in case the birds lose us, I'll scratch some trees along the way," he mentioned half-heartedly, not wanting to insult his mother in the process. Moving off toward the closest tree, he gave it a good scratch so that it was noticeable from a few feet away.
