Heron Lake Plateau now this is a story all about how my life got flipped, turned upside down

no no no no no-- bat. no. you can not search for tegan in times of emotional crisis. boy was not a brick wall, no, he was actually very sympathetic. but homeboy was SO BAD. so bad. at helping-- he was so bad at it. i can't say so bad again or it'd be overkill but... seriously. especially now that her lie had caught up to her... sheesh. tegan was gonna have to give a little tough love on that end.

either way, it seemed that that was what was going on-- and that seemed to be exactly what she did. tegan came across her rather dumbly-- bat looked awful. her thin face was damped and she was all slumpy like a dead rabbit. sheesh, she'd seen better days. but tegan was no robot. he boofed lowly and began a little faster pace up to her, giving her cheek a nudge. "what's up, pup?" he asked, a little hesitantly. he hoped waterworks wouldn't come.
