*Getting the icepack, tea towel and painkillers goes smoothly (entirely so we can go directly to the actual affection part), and Ingo heads to Mokou's room, setting them down on their bed.*
Do you want me to lie down next to you, puppy?

Cuddles it is then. I know I am quite cool to the touch but should I grab an icepack or anything as well? We still have painkillers, I think.

Whatever puppy would like.

Usalia has finally come out of the lower levels of the #𝐌𝐀𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐂𝐊𝐇𝐔𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒 ' base. She was walking around again, but still nursing a radar-induced headache with an icepack.

We should create more higher altitude headwaters retention basins to replace icepack. Or at least release breeding pairs of beavers into all top of the watershed areas to create cold water retention zones. Some "trickle down" environmental hydro economics

Had an awesome time at the @notcanes.bsky.social alumni game! Pretty cool to see our head coach tearing it up with his Cup-winning team. Well worth venturing out into the snow and ice.
