Redhawk Caldera rosebowl

bronco was very likeable. he elicited another grin from teya. "yes. they are sleepy. not move as fast." pirate queen sorana. so he'd met her daughter, which meant he probably had run into reyes. the two were inseparable, really. 
thinking of her redfurred mate made her mind shy away. and something about pirate queen, associating sorana with water, steeled her gut. but none of this was bronco's fault. "sorana see me swim a lot. used to live on island, over there."
unbeknownst to her, still, somehow, was its former name of hobbit hole, or the fact that reyes had once lived there with towhee.
she waded into the lake's shallows and looked for shadows beneath the water.
