Prompt: Motherly

<"Did you have something to eat?">

"Yes, Mamasita." The young charr on the cusp of thirteen glanced at her and then returned to prepping her gear for her fahrar drills.

<"Was it a filling meal?">

…

<"Phaedra, will you have strength to hunt the next grasshopper, if you don't eat up the first one?">

Phaedra's whiskers perked with a chirping giggle. "I don't eat grasshoppers."

<"I just worry for you, mourning heart.">

Phaedra blinked back damp eyes, giving the motherly critter a weak smile. "Yes, I know."

<"Maybe bring some things you might like nibbling and I keep you company?">
