Sleeping In

Walk | Talk | Think Curled up within the den, Anais continued to sleep. It was not because she had over exerted herself the day before - it had been a rather average day overall - and neither was it because she had stayed up too late either. If anything, it was only a rare moment of laziness, her exuberant antics at last catching up with her and giving her a needed moment of down time. And she had been doing more lately. The epidemic had her running around fetching meals for her sick family and pack mates, worrying over their recovery, and the arrival of the cure had given her a sudden boost to revert to old ways and explore as well as begin to devote herself to a new study in hunting. Rarely, even when she had the time to rest, did she take advantage of it to do so, so perhaps a little sleeping in was overdue. With the other children already up and attacking the day head on, she had the place to herself, and she took advantage of the space and quiet now. Her gold-grey side rose and fell softly with each quiet breath, yellow-gold eyes shut to the world. No adventures accompanied her in sleep this time, a dreamless slumber holding her gently within its grasp. Her paws were tucked close, her body curved in toward itself loosely, comfortable and content, and she did not fidget or twitch. Eventually she would have to rise - someone was bound to find her and get her up eventually - but not realizing that she overslept, still lost to the waking world, she continued to sleep, to rest, and, for once, be still. |
