Sun Mote Copse I'm getting older too

sorry for stretching this!  going on a break with her, but I'll finish these last threads up first <3

Hot springs and mountains, got it.  She mentally ticked that box and underlined it, knowing that she'd definitely make good, even if she had to bite Penn's lazy butt to get him up those rocks.  She had to bite back a snorted laugh at the image of it.  Her own solo trips out had often been towards mountains, actually.  She never climbed for obvious reasons, but the slopes were weirdly comforting... like the ground itself was telling her the way out and the way home.

I guess I can manage a story or two, though you'll have to guess which parts are true, she said, lips twitching in a slight smile.  She could probably find a few good lies to toss in, keep them on their toes.  Then again, she had no idea what would happen.  I'll be back to visit soon.  With Towhee and Phox she'd said 'back home', but to Wraen, somehow, 'visit' seemed more real.  It opened up a breath she didn't even realize she'd been holding in... because honestly, what if she did fall in love with a new place?

With Penn?  Hardly a strong chance.  But one that it felt good acknowledging.
