The Heartwood i would go most anywhere to feel.

Most definitely!!  I'm thinking we could probably wrap this up soon especially 'cause I was planning to have Fin do a little outridering which should most definitely bring her to the Spine :D

Fin quirked a brow, turning her head slightly as she watched the expressions change upon Cara's face.  First there was more confusion and a bit of defensiveness.  It seemed that something in the woman's brain then clicked into place for her eyes were widening with dawning comprehension in the next second.  Then came wave upon wave of laughter as the proud leader of the Spine fell to a fit of giggles at Finley's feet.

Finley, however, remained just as confused as ever - perhaps it would be fair to say she was even more so now that her companion's mood had so abruptly changed.  It wasn't until a few moments following Cara's comment that her own understanding finally came to her.  "Why would I be talking about..." she had started, only to trail off mid-sentence as her own eyes popped and jaw dropped, "OHHHHHHHHH you thought, and I said.. Oh good LORD."  The comments she had made, so unnecessarily, she now realized.

Her embarassment at making those rather raunchy confessions was short-lived as she too fell victim to the humor of the situation.  She dropped back onto her haunches with a round of her own laughter.

Now on the same page, the conversation flew by with far less confusion, but just as much laughter.  When Fin finally said farewell for the day, it was with a new friend in her heart that the beta made the trip back home.
