So he had resigned himself to her fussiness and was just... trying to sleep around it.

A crack had appeared in the egg's shell the previous day, so when he went to bed he had carefully set it beside his pillow, next to the wall. The rocking and tapping from inside the egg had been growing more and more insistent, and the crack appeared to be deepening... for now, though, Kaoru was fast asleep, one palm flat on the bed near Tama-chan]

After several hours of egg-wiggling and shell-cracking, the sharp tip of a horn finally poked its way out of the shell with a loud crack. From there several small fissues ran down the side of the egg, eventually ending with the egg cracking apart on itself.

He yanks off the eye mask he'd made to keep out the Bastion's twenty-four-hour sun, getting to his knees and searching the bed for...]

...how did you manage to fit inside that?! [Wonderingly, but goodness. No wonder she was so heavy!]

[Tama-chan does not answer, since anklegators can't talk. But she will immediately recognize Kaoru's voice and go rub up against him while making happy snake-reptile-thing noises, because she found her mama and all is right in the world.]
