SHES AWAKE, SILKY IS AWAKE
A warm flicker stirred in my chest, and my ribbon-like feelers twitched on their own. I blinked, realizing I wasn't frozen anymore. Tucked beneath a pale cloth that draped like a cozy blanket, I gave a soft wiggle and nudged the fabric aside with my forepaw. It slid smoothly along the cardboard base of my tiny bed. I sat up, feeling the steady strength in my limbs, ready and calm for whatever comes next.
