Nova Peak i'm usher, you're bieber.

You better fuckin believe Kiwi was stalking her mountain. Because she needs to be for me to claim this thread.

She didn't recognize Yami immediately.  When the wolf first appeared in her range of vision, Kiwi immediately made a beeline for her.  It wasn't until she got close enough, tail and head high, that she dropped all appearances out of sheer surprise.

Yami!? She broke out in a grin, and for the first time in a long time, she wasn't at all concerned with the image she presented.  You're back!!!!  Then she was charging forward to meet her.
