Sun Mote Copse A concatenation of locusts

Of course he was.  Just like Fig.  He had that intense confidence that made it just make sense, and she figured she probably should have guessed he was going for fighter.

When he asked if she wanted to spar, her hesitation probably showed on her face.  Sparring against her brother and Towhee was one thing, but embarrassing herself in front of Bronco didn't really appeal to her.  She couldn't refuse either; that wouldn't be cool.

Yeah, okay.  It might have shown, but there was no trace of that hesitation in her voice when she answered.  I need the practice, and you seem alright.  Offhand, casual, as if he had just made the cut for 'acquaintance'.  She could've been all 'yeah let's be best friends k' but that wasn't really Fennec's style.  Seemed more of a Sugar thing.  

Now?  She had to clarify, since she couldn't really tell if he was prepping for a spar or not.  She could do it now, she guessed, but he might be busy with border stuff or something.
