Silly Nier butt 
::345 ::
A sheepish grin crept onto Nier's muzzle at Sauls mention of his appalling carpentry skills, the memory of painful splinters and Sauls gentle treatment fresh in his mind. He winced slightly at the memory of the splinters, but inwardly resolved that he would be better this time. The clap on the shoulder and the verbal reassurance that Bran and Niernan would be allowed in the treehouse brought a massive grin and a bout of furious tail wagging. He set about gathering the flattest and sturdiest pieces of wood that he could find, but ended up trusting Sauls judgement more than his own, gladly taking the burden of the wood that his grey cousin placed in his arms.
Niernans tail wagged constantly, a gentle sway of the plumed appendage that accompanied every step he took. He placed the wood on the forest floor when Saul indicated that they were at the chosen tree. Nier raised his cyan eyes to the tree, noticing the low lying branches that would allow Teme and Elias to scramble up. Nier gave Saul a look, I'll be back in a minute Saul, just wanna have a wee climb. Nier launched himself into the tree, reaching for branches and very quickly finding himself near the top of the tree. He popped his head through a cluster of leaves and revelled in the fresh air as a spring breeze blew through the trees. He sneezed as the wind blew right up his nose and giggled at the feeling. He agreed with Saul; this was a good tree to build in.
His descent was not as graceful as his ascent, his paws fumbling for holds until he finally fell the last few feet to the forest floor, landing unceremoniously on his rear, catching his tail underneath him. He yelped and swiftly rolled over, stroking the bruised limb. After a moment to deal with the pain he sat at the base of the tree and looked up at Saul, mischief and determination shining in his eyes, What to do first then?He asked, looking for direction from Saul.
