Wapun Meadow ii. sweet-smelling flowers

Woah! The guy was an absolute acrobat! Jasmine didn’t even have time to skirt away; as she whipped by, he twisted round and leapt towards her like a flying squirrel!

And Jasmine laughed, as much at herself as at Mister Talkative — and did he laugh with her?? She recognized that trill in the sound of his bark as his forearms crashed around her, and caught her up in a lively embrace.

And Jasmine fell with a whoop! And she twisted around to grab hold of him, too, with outstretched arms, to pull him down with her. Laughing, all the while. Intent and keen to turn this race into a good natured wrestling match.
