Bramblepoint who's this stupid clown

Apparently she'd spoken too soon. Towhee could read Dune's lips clearly as he said two words: "Will think." She quirked a brow in disbelief, her face twisting into a bit of a scowl. She wanted to say something rather shirty in response when Tegan's signing distracted her. A moment later, he was saying goodbye to Dune and nudging her tellingly.

She had no desire to stay here, so Towhee allowed herself to be guided back in the direction of the caldera. Just before they disappeared from view, she stopped to look back at Dune and say, "Just so we're clear, that's not an open invitation. If you don't show up within a week asking for me, don't bother coming near here again." She didn't wait for a response, instead facing forward and trotting after Tegan.
