Ouroboros Spine [Moose Herding Quest?]

I didn't think Ptarmigan would let the fight end, that's why I kind left my post open ended since I didn't know if she'd start taking it out on Mordecai or not, lmao. If either of you guys want to have a piece of him, feel free to throttle him for being a nuisance! Roll for late action: 2

“Ptarmigan!” His call followed after her as she barreled part him. Mordecai idled for perhaps too long, debating whether or not he could stop her. Huffing angrily to himself, he gave her chase. Despite the pace he could maintain, she was much faster and he found himself trailing after her through the woodland that cropped up from their clearing. Her figure bounded into view just as quickly as it left him, but he managed to keep up his pursuit.

By the time he had found the pair again, Sitri had stopped to meet her. She had closed on him, leaving Mordecai too far away to do anything. He pushed himself forward, almost tripping over the ground cover as his legs stretched to their limit. Once more, he tried to wedge himself between the quarreling pair, if he could get the chance. Knowing the risks and repercussions of what he was doing, he only hoped he could gain the interlude he had foolishly squandered earlier.
