[For @Ampere - but open to any siblings as well ]
Tae hadn't forgotten the conversation she had with Ampere.
Despite the fact that she continually got into trouble (found trouble, went looking for it, actively sought it out on all occasions - same thing), she wasn't actively trying to displease her Mother. More so ... she was just trying to find herself. Chaos just seemed to be what she gravitated towards, for better or worse.
Though to be fair, this she hadn't intended. This time she was actually trying to be good.
Feeling a little shaky - which caused her body to become sort of see-through around the edges, with ghostly vapors flitting off - Tae went looking for Ampere.
The problem, and coincidentally the reason she was looking for Ampere, was that the mandible-marked filly was currently being trailed by not one, but two black canines.
Tae swallowed hard. She couldn't quite fly yet (though she had been able to manage a few lengthy glides from one sand-dune to another), and so she had to resort to finding the tallest dune she could and scouring the bloody sands below for her Mother.
"MOTHER-" Tae called loudly, and, trying to help, the wolf and the hellhound happily howled in chorus with her voice. "Shhh!!!" Tae admonished them immediately, spinning on her nimble hindquarters and glaring at the dark pups through pale and narrowed eyes. Both whimpered, their tales between their legs, and laid down on the sands with their heads on their paws.
Tae's wings folded and unfolded against her flanks as her nearly-white gaze looked out, hoping to spy Ampere. Meanwhile, her mind was a mess of excuses, lies, half-truths, and explanations. She really had no idea how she was supposed to tell her Mother what she had done in a way that wouldn't immediately have her disowned from the family. But nor did she want to run the risk of Ampere somehow finding out on her own - and that seemed fairly likely, given how often her Mother patrolled.
No, Tae had to be the one to tell her. But just how that conversation would go, the girl still hadn't a clue.

this was your heart, this swarm of flies
This was once your mouth - this bowl of lies
