Swiftcurrent Creek timeless

Arlette’s idea was brilliant. ”I haven’t tested that before—testing that has never crossed my mind.” This was why she loved collaborating. It allowed her to do things she wouldn’t have otherwise. ”It's a great theory. Let’s do it!” She was already planning how to prepare for it. ”I can have the ground ready for it in a day or so … if you want! She reined her excitement a bit when she realized she was getting ahead of herself.

She nodded in agreement regarding the deer. ”See—that was an experiment I was thinking about doing. I was going to move some plants closer to the creek to see if they’d get eaten,” it was as if she’d read her mind. ”Any chance you could help me prep the ground and transfer some plants? I figure it’d help you get a paw-on experience!” Given how enthusiastic Arlette had been, Eshe didn’t expect her idea to be turned down.
