Firestone Hot Springs I need a lullaby, a kiss goodnight

Hmm take a friend, now that was a REALLY good idea. Maybe June, but would she be able to hack it? He wouldn’t like to leave her alone for very long, but he wasn’t sure she could manage exploring. He would have to make sure he was proficient at hunting before he packaged her up in cotton wool and bundled her off on an adventure with him.

 

 

Asterr graciously declined his offer of help. Mason wasn’t sure what help he could be, but he did know her reasoning why she wold not accept was factually incorrect.

“Well… I think Dad’d be ok if I helped your friend… but mebbe I should get some more practicin’ done first.” No one would want a miniature, inexperienced surgeon operating them after all.

 

Mason glanced up at the sky, and then back towards his home. The sun had passed its zenith now. He felt much more cheerful than he had done; Asterr had taken his mind off his heady predicament. “Thank you for all the talking. I better be goin’ now. I wanna be home before dark.” Mason inclined his head towards her,  waiting to hear her goodbyes before he headed off. He was sure she needed to get back to her poorly friend, after all. Hopefully they would meet again.
