Grouse Thicket Obsess less beetle buds

all the rush!

Colt had been kind of dicking around lately.  Mostly in the vacinity of the lake, though he contemplated jogging south for a bit and seeing what was what.  There were some mountains down there he'd enjoyed, and it would be nice to revisit where he'd stayed so long.  Say hi to Nell.

He was on his way there, skirting to avoid the newly relocated Redhawks, when he heard Qui call for him.  What'd he want so soon? Colt had imagined it would be a good month or two before any of them wanted to reconnect, so he'd have some time to wander.

He wasn't about to leave his friend hangin, though, so he quickly shifted trajectory and howled a response.  As soon as Quixote came into sight, he grinned. "Long time no see.  Miss me already?"
