the grass is greener
#9
When she caught the grasshopper and was getting praised little Oceane beamed happily before collecting her kill between her fangs and munching on the insect. She had to admit they tasted something strange but they were crunchy and tangy at the same time, a quality that her normal foods lacked. She finished her kill and pounced back on her feet as she waited to see what was next.

She peered up at the large fellow and asked. "Anymore?" She had to be one of the few that didn't mind eating the insects.

The way that the male seemed to try and convince her that she was the one that talked funny didn't work on the girl. She just shook her head and eyed him as he finally admitted the truth. When he spoke of a place where it snowed all the time her eyes got big and she whined. "But.. but.. it's never warm?" She'd only just discovered what warmth really was from the world around her but she couldn't imagine living in snow all the time where there were no green grasses or hoppers to catch. She shook her head in amazement.
