Mystery joined in her laugh, shaking his head at the pups' antics. How they had so much energy this early in the morning, he would never know. Stretching and letting out a yawn, he looked to Jiyaken. "You sure you can handle this set?" he asked in a joking tone.
Jiyaken, who had been blinking away any remaining drowsiness from his eyes, smiled. "O' course I can," he replied rather confidently, at last getting to his paws and padding over.
Minty, meanwhile, was doing some sort of bouncing dance that was likely supposed to be impressive to her 'foe', Jade. Stopping to crouch, she wagged her tail in the air and then pounced with a squeaky roar.
Feeling even more tired after this display, Mystery let out a light chuckle and sighed, looking to Dixie. "We should probably get going, then," he said. Suddenly he was having mixed feelings about going back to work. Sure, it was a break from the kids, but then... His green gaze moved to the pups almost sadly. They were growing so fast and he was going to miss days of it while out on sentry duty... Shaking his head, he threw that thought to the back of his mind and looked back to Dixie again, awaiting her response.
