Dragoncrest Cliffs if you see something say nothing and drink to forget

she's been doing her best to just not think about furi, as if it's that easy -- as if the other gona's scent isn't all over the territory, as if she can just turn it all off and focus on her work the way she wants to. at least it has been pretty easy to avoid seeing her now that they've stopped patrolling together.

it hurts, though.

blixen is doing her best to not think about furi, and so it doesn't occur to her to avoid the northern border, where she usually doesn't patrol. she feels extra restless today, up early but needing to do something else, something more. (she's being so, so patient with proving that she's willing to earn cheka, but as the days bleed together, impatience is setting in.) it doesn't occur to her until she realises she's on a course directly for the other girl, freezing mid-step as she locks eyes with furi's face.
