Jade Fern Grove there beyond the palisade

she'd missed him in her hurry to make sure she hadn't ripped off Baelfire's handiwork (to her relief it is whole and secure) but her head whips around in a hurry when he speaks. He small - she practically towers over him, which isn't really a rare thing but from his proximity and voice she'd have expected him to be bigger. he's laughter and energy and spirit, and it's almost a shock to stumlbe across him in the midst of the quiet glade. "oh!" is all she can say at first, and then she pulls herself from the bush entirely. tail is wagging before she remember's it's missing, and the sharp shoot of pain is enough to have her perform an odd little jump. and then, for he didn't seem to be doing much else than lying there, "why are you on the ground?"
