Chapter 12

Kamaril

Kamaril snorted out a laugh when she saw Nibbler greeting Revin. The poor Hissa looked terrified and probably thought he was about to be eaten, but Nibbler’s growl was one of interest not hostility. After they spent so much time cuddling and touching, Revin was covered in her scent, making him safe from the minari unless he acted with outright aggression.

“He wants to say hi,” Kamaril explained. “You should drop to your knees and let him bump your chest with his head. Then make a fist and bump the front of his chest to reciprocate.”

She let Tizzy out of her cage and demonstrated the process. Tizzy wrapped all her long neck tentacles around Kamaril’s arms and drew her close. Tizzy was one of the biggest minari in the pack but conversely was also the least aggressive. This minari wouldn’t care if she never got to hunt again as long as she got attention and snuggles.

While Tizzy cuddled into her, Kamaril looked over to see how Revin was doing. He’d dropped to his knees, but his body was stiff and his expression tense. Nibbler was pulling back from pushing his thick head into Revin’s chest. Revin made a fist, but hesitated, eyeing the minari with distrust.

“You don’t have to bump him back,” Kamaril called out. “But if you don’t, he’ll think you’re rejecting him. He’s sensitive to things like that.”

Revin met her gaze. “Sensitive? As in I’ll hurt his feelings?”

“They’re pack animals and very social,” Kamaril chided him as she tugged her hand free of Tizzy and went to the next cage. “They’ll accept you as part of the pack because you’re with me, but it would be better if you could bond with them too.”

Revin muttered something she couldn’t hear and then gently pushed his knuckles into Nibbler. The minari exaggerated being pushed back, as if Revin was a pup being taught proper social cues. Then he bounded off to join the other minari gathered around her.

As she finished letting all the minari out of their cages, Revin stood up and watched with an uneasy expression. Once everyone was free and gathered around her, she looked around the bay. It was a nice large space with plenty of room for them to run and play. Except for a row of droids on charging ports at one end, it was empty of anything but the cages and piles of supplies.

A look at the supplies made Kamaril chuckle. It seemed that Ti had given them everything in the kennel building along with the minari. There were bags of feed, boxes of grooming tools, crates of bedding, medication, and all dishes and bowls for food preparation and feeding.

As she looked at their supplies, she thought about the practicalities of having the minari on a ship. Thankfully, one of the supply boxes was full of deodorizing absorption mats. She could line them up at the far end of the bay. Once she showed them and gave the proper command, the minari would know that was where they should eliminate when needed.
