Clover's crash into the conversation didn't last very long, which was a bummer because Nellie wanted to get to know everyone. Seeya! She called after her, giggling at Phox's comment after. She felt a teeny tiny bit guilty for making him lie for her, but the fact he'd done so only gave him plus points in her book. If she had any kind of father figure in her life, she was thinking it might be Phox.

She grinned, but not for very long. When her mother was brought up she sighed. Yeah, I noticed. She nearly wanted to roll her eyes but thought it might come off as rude. She didn't like her mother making such a big deal out of it all. She'd come back unharmed right? What was the issue? She'd just been chilling at the hawks, no biggy. Phox was right; enough about that. She smiled at Towhee, waving her goodbye when she went after Clover. That just left her and Phox.

Trip went fine, had no troubles findin' my way back - and no, I haven't much. She shrugged. Yeah, he was her brother, but they hadn't grown up together the way most Firebird pups had. She found it hard to approach him like this. Ya think he's avoidin' me or somethin'?
