Her enthusiasm was not unexpected, but made the boy twinge with anxiety all the same. He gave her a smile, finding it hard to resist doing so. He wasn't sure where he was going to find a cave to show her, but figured they had a pretty good shot of discovering something further up the mountain. It would not be the safest trip, but he was reasonably certain that they could find a path that would be safer for them to take, even if it didn't lead them to a cave in the end.

But that too would come later, Summer reassured himself as his heart began to throb with anxiety from the guilt he would feel over not being able to find a cave for her. "Me neither," he admitted softly, momentarily pondering how then he would be able to locate one for the two of them, but moving past it as he realized how late in the day it was becoming.

"Well.. I should probably get some rest," Summer said, feeling as though he were choking in his words for fear that she would be upset with him for taking his leave of her. "Sorry we didn't find you an antler, but at least you found a pretty cool stone. I'll let you know when I'm ready to visit the coast and the caves." He offered a smile, waiting to hear what she had to say in response before bowing his head and padding off to retrieve his antler before finding somewhere to try and sleep.
