Archie of course was a very bad example of what this little family could really offer Ritselli. The boy was certainly a little on the selfish side and most definitely leaning towards lazy. Perhaps he had simply gotten used to the comforts of doing nothing during the family's periods of loss and settling in or maybe they simply acted like good excuses for him to get away with the frankly bad behaviour. His poor little sister just wanted to spend some quality time with her new family, the least he could do was open his eyes.
And yet he got away with his refusal, his mother beckoning the girl to her instead. Though his mouth was partially obscured by his paws, a small smirk could potentially be visible, a small celebration at his success. It'd fade again as the girl began to chatter away. Truth be told he wasn't too keen on the idea of playing, though the weather was cooling it was still too warm in Archie's mind to be running around all over the place. And he was pretty tired, this cramped den wasn't exactly the easiest place to sleep in, he still missed the old one they'd had back in the North. At a year old perhaps he should have moved out, though digging a new den to just the way he wanted it had not been a way he wanted to spend those hot Summer days.
"Really, really tired." Came the same sleepy murmur. At least he held back the urge to shh her though it was incredibly tempting. All this talk didn't help you sleep either.
