"Wait a minute..."
As Tiny the Raijin Hippo brought along the Geyser Hippo on her return to the caravan fleet, some of the sharper members doing clean up at the time, noticed something a bit...off about the latter.
"I know that look..."
When the Geyser Hippo first showed up, it had this air of arrogance and mischief, an aura normally associated with adolescent rebelliousness and general lack of care for the opinions of others.
"It's not just me right, it looks a bit more...battered, right?"
"Yup. Complete with a sad puppy dog look too."
"Ah..."
Needless to say, the people couldn't help but notice that this arrogant attitude was thoroughly replaced with that akin to a submissive child, i.e., the same aura a naughty child had after being thoroughly scolded by their elders.
"Hey...this is gonna sound weird, but is that Raijin Hippo by any chance a mama hippo?"
