Heron Lake Plateau spare dad

Okay let's be honest, the whole situation had turned a bit weird now.  But it wouldn't have gotten too much weirder if Owen hadn't gone and pushed an extra step.  No, it would have just been a nice farewell to Eljay and they could have gone about their business.  But no.  Can't have that happen.  

Her cool smile dropped and turned sharp, her gaze swinging pointedly to her brother, her tone icy.  You can always come along!  Or anyone!  I dunno why you all just stay here and stuff, it's boring.  At least I'll be having fun instead of whining about monsters or whatever!  With a minor flash of teeth, she spun away from Owen then (and Eljay, by proxy), prowling off on her own.  Why did she even bother with him?  He was so stupid some times, ugh.  Whatever.  Go play with babies or whatever, be all adults' pet and not do anything fun ever!

She had things to do.  Better and more interesting things than Owen could imagine.

In all honesty, she'd somewhat forgotten Eljay was even there.
