Sun Mote Copse Only blue or black days

After she returned with Towhee, Fennec kept to her decision to remain within the Firebird claim.  She didn't avoid @Figment; sooner or later she should probably apologize or something.  Or just pretend it never happened, whatever was easier.

But she didn't really look for him either.  She wasn't super down about the whole thing, but she did kind of feel like being alone.  

In the summer, the small clearing she was in had been full of flowers.  She remembered the scent of them.  Right now it was an empty swath of snow and dead grass, and Fennec nosed her way across to find a relatively clear patch before curling up.  The sun was out and that made this the perfect place to nap, a place where she could feel the sun still filter through the opening in the trees.  Not so many birds to distract her either.

She rested her nose on her hip, but didn't go to sleep immediately. Instead she just listened as the dead grasses crackled in the breeze and a flock of crows sailed by high overhead.  Their caws turned her ears round, and she wondered if they'd found something dead.  Hopefully so, she liked crows.

As she was settling in, Fennec made the abrupt decision that forced starr to edit this thread - this was stupid.  Everything about this was dumb.  So she tipped back her head and called for @Figment directly.  She wanted to talk and he could see, so of course he was going to come to her.  And Stevie is getting another tag.
