like watching over a thermonuclear reactor

Morganna was having a good week. She only had one small mushroom growing from the corner of her right eye and it didn't even obscure her vision that much. Before she had left, Fuji had attacked her with a bunch of funny smelling herbs and for all the girl had whined and growled and wriggled, she had to admit, her older sister seemed to know what she was doing, because the itching stopped, and the larger outbreaks she had been having were now seemingly reduced to this.

She found a place alongside Erik, bumping her quilled hip against his own and laughing at the way they rattled whens he did so. They weren't in a position to cause him any harm, just make a funny sound with each impact. She hadn't noticed they could do that before. She was less intent on exploring with her whole family here, but wherever their mother was leading them was somewhere new, somewhere near the oaks, but sunnier...

When they finally arrived though, Morganna wasn't quite sure what to make of the place. Their mother seemingly dismissed them and took herself off to rest under a tree, and the girl turned to her brothers, her whole back end seemingly waving with the shake of her tail. "Lets see who can find the coolest thing!" Without waiting for an answer, she bounded forward into the field, nose to the ground, one ear turned to keep track of her raven friend. Two pairs of eyes were better than one after all.
