Sun Mote Copse Break out of captivity

It occurred to Fig within seconds of garnering Fennec's attention that he should've planned out what he was going to say to her. The instant she turned in his direction, his mind emptied of ideas. He was glad she couldn't see his face then because he was certain he looked like a moron with his deer-in-the-headlights expression and jaw hanging open uselessly. There was so much he should say, so much for the two to talk about, even without the guilt hovering between them. Where had she gone? Where had she been? What adventures had she had? Had she missed him at all?

He didn't know where to begin, though, so he just let his brain flop about like a magikarp trying to use Splash attack as he uttered a slightly mumbly, "What's up?" He winced almost instantly, "How are you?" He winced again.
