One part of animal care is making sure that animals Care. Obviously Reira isn't here to train the animals into any tricks or things that beast tamers and the like need-that's THEIR job. But the fact is, an animal unfamiliar or unsuited to the Tent is one that will not train well, and today?
Is field trip day. Reira isn't bringing anything Massive into the tent, since she's not exactly trusted with that sort of thing. Not because she'd be bad at it, but because no one wants to worry about what'll happen when a massive chain chomp decides to go for its own run.
But Reira has with her a few smaller-sized creatures-the first one being a small, bowling ball sized chain chomp, whose chain gets latched onto a much longer length of metal before getting pegged right in the middle of the dirt floor. She stomps on it as hard as she can with both feet at once, and 'Bow-Wow' is good as set to adjust themselves-the small thing currently yipping and yapping at everything in sight.
"It's okay Bow-wow; this is where you get to do big things, one day-like your Big friend," Reira explains, already at work to calm the thing down. Animal emotions are easier to pin point after all-and Bow-wow is....well. Just a little spooked. Feeling better with a treat or two though.
Bow-Wow isn't the only one she brings in though. Each day she'll bring one or another in for a little while, and other than the small chain chomp there's also...
A fancy chicken of some kind, bobbing it's head and clucking aimlessly as Reira let's it roam around.
A small group of literal air-swimming and breathing 'flying fish', somewhat tied to a leash so they don't stray too far.
And even what looks like a cow....if, you know, a cow was beet red and covered in fungus.
The last creature she can be spotted with is more unique. It hisses angrily at anything or anyone else who comes near, and even seems half inclined to steer clear of Reira herself. For most of the animals, they just need to be reintroduced to the tent. Remember that the place exists, as do the acts.
But for the Tektite? This is...his first time.
With all of the others at least, she'll be just as busy at work for them, as she is with the Tektite though. ....Even if it often looks like she's just playing around with them. This is work, guys.
