I found a way I could catch that feel good - Finley - Jul 23, 2024 AW to pack members!
Light rain, 17C/62F, sunrise [dohtml] She had been back home for less than a full day at this point, and her age was really showing by how fatigued she felt. A few years ago a scouting trip like the one that Finley had just been on wouldn’t have been a second thought to her. A couple hours of sleep and she would have been back up and on her paws like nothing had ever happened. Now, it felt like no amount of sleep would have her caught up to feeling normal again. The new day would be beginning soon as she stirred within the cave that she had once upon a time shared with Jethro. The rain had remained steady, though light, throughout the night and into the morning, but she was safe and dry in here. A large part of her wanted to roll over and go back to sleep and just let the day pass her by. The more responsible part of her urged her to get up, get back to work and stop lazing around. In the end, Finley gave herself just a little bit more time, not to sleep, but to rest her weary muscles. Getting old was a privilege she knew, but in this moment it also felt like a curse.

RE: I found a way I could catch that feel good - Finley - Aug 08, 2024 [dohtml] The mother had no idea that her children were heading her way as she settled her head upon her paws. Kicking her back legs out sideways, a deep sigh brought her down into a level of comfort that was just a step above being asleep. Eyelids struggled to stay open, and as she lay there she realized just how deeply her muscles ached from her travels. It was clear she would not be able to make the trip back to see Jethro, and could only hope he would come back to them soon. Plus, there was that nagging itch deep in her ear, that she could never seem to quite reach no matter how hard she tried. In fact, when Ryder called out, she was desperately trying to scratch it, but even if she hadn’t been it was doubtful that she would have heard them. She had first noticed how difficult it was to hear about halfway through her trip home and had chalked it up to her age. Now the biggest challenge would be to stop anyone else from noticing. Finley had been turning to relax once more when she noticed the shadow cast across the dim lighting of the entrance. Startling that someone had snuck up on her, it turned to a smile when she realized who it was. Crawling forward so she lounged in the entrance, she beamed at Ryder and Atara, getting to her paws quickly to kiss their crowns in greeting. |
