Sequoia Coast Need some air

Ptarmigan fell for the ploy, and drunkenly swaggered right in an attempt to intercept Thistle with a friendly head butt. Unfortunately for both her and the air, she only managed to swipe her head through open sky, for Thistle had quickly danced to the left instead and tugged gently on the longer mane of hair over her shoulders. Ptarmigan whirled in what felt like slow motion as she tried to comprehend what had happened, but already Thistle was stepping back and readying herself.

This time, the petite Endore swept forward unabashed. She moved lightly on her feet, showing her true speedy nature in that moment, but when she reached for Thistle's left ear, the sand under her feet betrayed her. She overextended on her right foreleg and it suddenly slid out from under her, sending Ptarmigan into a somersault right past Thistle.
