eww, sorry about the delay. ilu! and I really like Lucia too. 300+
Lucia's returned smile whisked away the needling worry that her tawny sister no longer cared for her as much as before, as if Lucia's feelings for her had changed. Perhaps all that had changed was who they each were on the inside. Still, she longed for those carefree days, wishing that she could rewind with her brother and sisters and enter the cheerful mindset that they'd shared as children. Maybe it was normal for siblings to go running in opposite directions, but that did not mean Rio liked it. She wasn't quite ready to grow up.
While she and Toki stalked after their prey, Lucia followed close behind. Rio's and her fox's hunts had been surprisingly simple, with only a moment or so of pursuit and nothing more. She only hoped that the commotion they'd caused wouldn't make Lucia's hunt especially difficult. As Rio sat back upon her haunches, one paw resting idly on the rabbit's limp form, she watched her sister with cautious periwinkle eyes. Fortunately, Lucia had the rabbit in only a few extra strides. Smile returning, Rio's ears lowered and tail thumped the grass as the emerald-eyed woman joined them. That was fun, she spoke cheerfully. Hunting was much more enjoyable when others came along; she was even able to let the rabbit's life go with silent thanks to the powers that had given it to her.
Toki had immediately begun munching away, but Rio held back. Her belly twisted on itself, nervous. She stole a few fleeting glances to her sister's pretty face, all kinds of memories continuing to invade her mind. She came to realize that she hardly knew who the other was. How have you been, Luci? she asked carefully, her tone sincere. Hopefully, it wasn't too late to get to know Lucia again, as long as she started now, at this wonderful opportunity.
