Alpine Lake Even children get older

It was kind of funny, she thought, as the sun began to set and the air began to cool as signal.  She was on her way to meet with @Penn, but her mind was racing.  She'd been most worried about Fig, but in the end, it was Bronco and her dad who had been the worst.  She remembered Phox's tone and her ears fell, even as she felt herself get a little angry all over again.  She wasn't a kid anymore.  He didn't get to tell her what to do any more than he could Fig, not just because she was blind.

She felt the slope rising and sensed the familiar trees nearby.  Penn!?  Hey, dickbreath, ready to go?  The insult helped to bolster her a little, and she knew when he asked how it went she was going to definitely lie about it.  It didn't matter now anyway... something to worry about whenever they came back.
