Sleepy Fox Hollow saturday

Javelina recognized a dismissal when she heard one. She supposed Fiona had been trying to get rid of her since the instant they’d spotted one another. She’d just hoped… well, it didn’t matter, nor did she take it personally. But it did bring her to a sudden halt.

I’ll leave you to it, then. She couldn’t really say it was nice to have met Fiona, though she dipped her head and said, Take care of yourself, Fiona, and the sentiment was genuine enough.

With a parting wave of her tail, she retreated in another direction. Out of respect for Fiona and this faceless leader of hers, Javelina would avoid this corner of the wood. She headed instead toward its center again, moving slowly but surely. Perhaps by the time she got there, Glaukos would have returned with a meal.
