little big eyes

at first she was confused by the sound of the voice, the somewhat foreign way it formed her name, but it quickly clicked for the child - and upon realizing just who it was that had come to rescue her this time, she gasped. almost instantly the tears that were welling around her sightless lilac eyes dissipated and armai's little head popped up from behind the stone which she'd been cowering. her need to cry and whine, and the soft stinging of her bonked nose were forgotten as her eyes widened once again; not in fear but in wonder. lian was the second to the pair of mystical elder siblings, and up to this moment armai had little chance to bother her older brother in the way she bothered her sister - she only hoped this brother would be a little nicer than calder.

so far, it seemed he was; he wasn't nearly as mean when he spoke, but he wasn't outright friendly either. tail wagging eagerly the little silver puff attempted to snuggle herself into lian's side, his body heat seeming very inviting while her fur was so damp and frigid. "kay, mai'll stop - but me dun' wanna go back to tha' den please and tank-you, leee-aaaaan."

almost as soon as she'd finished singing his name the child yawned and blinked a few times, "i'se sleepy cause i didn't take my nap. please dun' tell on me's, it was an accident."
