Dragoncrest Cliffs Anglerfish

Naturally, Suzu wanted to get the trap finished before eating, but offering to find a snack before starting had been her way of offering an olive branch. She knew he was food-motivated, so for him to offer to do work before eating food...That meant something. It seemed to her like he was making an effort to give her what she wanted, and that made her feel very special. Eagerly, she smiled, tail waving constantly behind her. "Okay! Yes, we do this!" She said. 

A bit flustered by his congeniality, she tilted her head to the side in confusion when he pointed out the shape of the branch. She'd just been thinking how calm his eyes always looked, and now he was asking her a question. "Oh," She said, surprised, and shaken from her reveries. "Oh, yes, it does! I found it up the beach, past de tide line. I t'ink dey be so light dey get blown inland, after drifting in," She said. Eager to distract him from her momentary slip, she touched her nose to his shoulder and bolted. 

"I bet I can fin' one faster den youuuu!" She called out, loping up the beach toward where the grasses grew.
