She digs burrows that fill with warm tidewater, and her signature move is vanishing down a dry tunnel and bursting out of a wave three heartbeats later, still laughing.

The living story
Tidetunnel was born where Chuck's quiet meadow burrow met a tide that refused to go back out. The Warren asked where the water came from; she kept not answering, exactly like her woodchuck parent, until the giggling started and gave the whole secret away.
She is digging a new tunnel under the meadow that surfaces only at high tide, popping up in warm pools to surprise racing pups and then vanishing before anyone can ask her a single question.
One day a tide will come in through her tunnel and not leave, and Tidetunnel will have to decide whether she is the keeper of a burrow or the keeper of a brand-new inland sea.
