Finding a blink hare had been unexpectedly easy. They hadn't even properly started hunting yet, too busy throwing elbows and shoulders and rolled eyes and rough, teasing words before they'd come across a clearing in the jungle where a half dozen black and white bunnies had been grazing obliviously.
At least until Boreal and Lilly had tumbled out into the grass, tussling, and all of the buns had promptly vanished.
That had shut Tal up (well, after the yelp of dismay), and he'd rushed forward. Catching sight of a hare now safely out of reach beneath the jungle's edge, he'd raced after it, calling back for Sah to follow.
They'd almost lost the little bastard a dozen times, but with four sets of eyes looking for it they managed to keep it just barely in sight. The blink hare led them on a merry chase up and up and up until Tal was panting and Boreal was unapologetically flying and then--
The hare blinked out of sight at the edge of a vast precipice and Tal stumbled to a halt, wheezing and glaring around as Boreal looped higher overhead, crooning at the magnificent sight laid out below. "Yeah, I'm sure it's great-- Hey, anyone see the damn rabbit?" he called back to the rest of their little hunting party as he edged towards the dropoff cautiously.
