Sun Mote Copse There's a song in my heart now

Kiwi was a little dubious of their new members.  She liked Eljay well enough, and was excited to maybe learn some healing from him.  But Sequoia liked Wraen a lot, and that immediately made her jealously territorial of their friendship, though she did make an effort not to be obvious about it to her friend.  And Colt - she hoped he wasn't eyeing an honored rank, because her mom was leader and she was here longer and that meant she had clout.  More than he had, at least.

She stalked past, not overly hostile but not exactly friendly, before greeting her mom with a quick kiss on the cheek.  Hey! What's goin on?  She asked, sitting near and tilting her head questioningly.
