He tells her "ooh love", nobody matters like you.
Where she had been unresponsive to her given name, hé did seem to understand it. But thus far he had always been the first with things. He had entered this hazy world before her, he had managed to climb to his feet before her, he had gotten his name before her and now he understood things quicker than her too. But she couldn’t get herself to care, simply because her young mind is not able to gasp such deep thoughts just yet. Instead she keeps nurturing herself, totally oblivious to whatever conversation was being held.
But then. ’Lacey’. This has her pull her head back from underneath her dam’s barrel, turning around a bit to blink at her wombmate. She watched him smile at their dam and instinctively she reaches out to bump his flank with her muzzle. Perhaps to get his attention, perhaps to confirm if that was how they were supposed to call her. Because she is looking at him, she doesn’t notice the change in their dam right away, or maybe that was because of her dulled senses.
It seemed to have the desired effect though, as he is at her side soon after. Her muzzle brushes his cheek lightly, but only to move back to her dam’s udders. The bit white question’s aren’t directed at her, so in their little hazy world Kylin decides to go back to that one pleasant thing out here. The gently cares at her hip encourages her to continue. The first thing she does after finishing is reaching out towards her mother’s muzzle, rests of the food still lingering on her lips and thus its effectively smeared across her dam’s nose.
