She settled into his grasp easily enough, tail wagging as she whined her delight. Laughter filled the air as she rooted through the toys, digging through them with all the delightful air of an excited pup. Moss' attention remained on the pups as she shifted, toying with the puzzle. Terra didn't think too much of it, using his focus as a chance to not have to worry that they would manage to kill themselves in the few brief moments she took to play with his offered toy. Nuzzling into Moss she laughed, a clear sound that rang through the air as he picked her up, floating for a moment before he returned her to the ground, attention returning to the pups as they individually marked their pups with teeth and sitting on them possessively.
One ear remained trained on the pups as she looked at the bright, beautiful pictures. Rabbits covered it, with flashes of greenery all around. She'd never seen a book like that before. Reaching out a hand she ran it over the rabbits, wondering how they had been captured on paper like that. Looking up Terra nodded. I don't see why not. She'd caught Skoll reading aloud before, listening as he brought tales out of the book. Perhaps this was the same, though she saw no reason for it as she could tell the tales that she carried herself, and share them with whoever wanted to hear them. Moss' last words did stir a sharper reaction from her. Not something she'd expected to feel: jealousy. Of course they do. Terra turned back, laying between the pups possessively. They were her pups, not his. And why was he giving them so much attention, and not her?
