Stone Circle there are shooting stars behind your eyes

The one thing she hadn’t expected was for it to happen right now. Briefly, her dull green eyes widen and she frantically tries to think of a reason to get out of it.

She glances away from the woman and looks for Wardruna, wishing for him for the first time to actually show up and save her but he is nowhere to be found. His scent has long since been vacant since that morning. What will he think when he returns and she isn’t here? She droops a little bit but moves when the woman touches her, carefully picking herself up off the ground. The question catches her a little off guard and she bites the inside of her cheek, shrinking back a little so she can better follow Valette—and attempt to get out of the sudden spotlight—and all she has to offer is a twist of her lips and a shrug of her shoulders.
