Sun Mote Copse Another summer wasted

Maia hadn't exactly been a social butterfly these past few months, but she figured the time had come to introduce herself to one or two more of the packmates she hadn't met yet. She'd met Colt once or twice, but Niamh remained a bit of a mystery.

They seemed around the same age, but Niamh's closeness to Kiwi made Maia nervous to approach her.  So much so that when she spotted her alone, in a momentary panic, she wondered if maybe she could run before she was spotted.

Cmon Maia that's super dumb, she thought tiredly.  Wasn't like she was going to attack her or anything, and it couldn't be any worse than talking to Kiwi was.

Hey, hi, hello! She said, her voice chipper as she walked up.  You're Niamh, right?
