Eevee Family

He's a tiny, round bun with legs. He barely reaches his mother's chest. His fur is lighter and softer, almost a toasty beige, with a creamy mane that's still a little messy and has unruly strands that stick up when he runs. He wears a bright red ribbon tied around his neck (a Christmas present he refuses to take off even when it gets covered in snow). His ears are disproportionately large for his head, and they're always perked up with pure excitement. His eyes are ENORMOUS, round, and bright, with eyelashes that look drawn on; when he looks at his mother with a "can I throw another snowball?" expression, it's literally impossible to say no.
The tail is a hyperactive pompom that never stops moving: it shakes it so hard that sometimes it loses its balance and rolls downhill like a happy croquette.
Personality: Pure energy compressed into a mini form. He's brave to the point of recklessness: he jumps into piles of snow that are over his head, he launches himself downhill upside down, and when he sinks up to his ears he just shakes his head and lets out a "Whoosh!" of absolute joy. He's clingy with his mother: he runs ahead, but every ten seconds he looks back to make sure she's following, and if Mom stops for even a second, he turns around and jumps on her to hug her paws.
When he's really excited, he sticks out his tongue (it's pink and always has a snowflake stuck to the tip) and hops around in place while he waits for Mom to throw the next snowball. He can't stay still for more than three seconds at a time… except when Mom wraps her big tail around him and snuggles him against her warm mane; then he stays still for a little while, just long enough to catch his breath and take off again.
Together they form the perfect winter picture: the elegant and smiling mother running after her little whirlwind with a red bow, leaving a trail of messy footprints and crystal-clear laughter among the snowy pines.

It's a medium-sized adult Eevee, with an elegant yet warm demeanor, as if it always wears an invisible smile. Its fur is a slightly darker and more saturated brown than that of young Eevee, with golden highlights that shimmer when the winter sun touches it. The creamy mane around its neck is abundant, fluffy, and perfectly groomed; snow settles on it like powdered sugar, but it never gets completely wet because it's always in motion.
Her ears are large and alert, with pink interiors and a more defined black rim than her chick's. Her eyes are the same chocolate brown, but deeper and more serene, with a mischievous sparkle that appears when her little one gets up to some mischief. Her tail is long and very fluffy, and she moves it slowly and gracefully, as if keeping time to a quiet song. She has a few snowflakes stuck to her forehead and back, and she doesn't bother to brush them off: she likes how cold they feel.
Personality: Protective but extremely permissive. She's one of those mothers who yells "Watch out for the ice!" while already running after her child to prevent them from falling... and ends up slipping herself. She has infinite patience and a soft, sing-song laugh ("Eev, eev, eev~") that emanates whenever the little one does something adorable or silly. She never gets truly angry; the most she'll do is raise an eyebrow and let out a theatrical sigh before joining in the game. She's the typical mom who pretends to be caught off guard when the little one ambushes her with a snowball, and then counterattacks with a perfectly timed avalanche that covers him completely... but always gently, like a snowy hug.

Two Eevees, mother and child. Quadrupedal Pokémon similar to small dogs or foxes.
