Grusha & Tae
If you throw us to the wolves, we'll come back leading the pack

Tae had no problem understanding her larger twin - the smaller filly hadn't even really noticed that there was any oddity in the way Grusha spoke. After all, Ampere was normally yelling, Zero hadn't fully learned to articulate his words properly, and Gaucho was no Shakespaere. That Grusha forced her way through some consonant sounds didn't sound abrasive on Tae's ears at all. And fuck anyone who said that it did.

"Something big." She responded, her eyes bright and ful of eager curiosity. Her eyes were not blue and expressive like Grusha's could be - instead they were vacant, flat-white, and frankly, sort of creepy. But now they glimmered with the possibility of actually finding out.

At least until...

That magic ... can you do it again?

Tae dipped her marked face in response, but said nothing back. So far the wolf had spoken to them telepathically - it was entirely possible that she couldn't actually understand the words Tae might have used. Besides, it was a yes or no question - it didn't actually require anything more than what she offered. Still, a smile spread her bi-coloured lips. 

"We both can." She confirmed, looking to Grusha with a devilish smile. 

As the eggs began to move in the back of the cave, Tae's white-eyed gaze was directed to the flat black shells once again. Her eyes faltered slightly and slid towards the back of her skull as the mother indicated that she couldn't take care of what was coming out of the egg. Moments ago Tae had wanted a wolf, but as the fears of responsibility fell upon her shoulders, she suddenly wasn't so sure.

That was until..

The eyes of the slightly smaller wolf locked with her own. The pale golden eyes of the baby starred back at her, and instead of barking or flailing about, the creature emitted a low growl - which actually sounded quite pathetic - but which brought a smile to Tae's features. 

Oh really? She thought, and instantly felt the swell of bonding as the wolf's mind melded with her own. Her instincts felt amplified, heightened, and hungry

First thing's first ....

"You'll know the distraction when you see it. But ready." Tae advised, forgetting her previous uncertainty about the wolf understanding her. 

Locking eyes with her twin, Tae's muzzle broadened into a devilish smile. As excitement flooded through her features, the aspect of her apperance began to bleed away. She looked as though a strong astral wind had suddenly taken hold of her skin, and was bleeding her into the spirit realm. The edges of her body were now a smokey swirl, and she appeared to becoming more and more see through.  This, of course did not bother Tae in the slightest, and if anything, it made her more excited. 

What better distraction than a ghost and a walking skeleton? 

At the back of the cave were a number of bones and animal hides. Using her magic, Tae scooped up three of them. She haphazardly directed them out of the cave, meaning to, at the very least, get the thing's attention by the mere movement alone. It was then that she focused on melding her magic with Grusha's. Focusing on a pelt that appeared to belong to some sort of smallish bear thing, she infused it with her magic. It rose, but was without form. Her spirit-magic could only act like some sort of coat hanger, holding the thing up. What she needed was Grusha, and what her bear-skin-thing needed, was the pile of bones sitting next to the black pups.
