Her nose was practically sticky with mud as she nosed around the rocks she found. She had seen various pebbles and stones of varying colors, oranges and obsidian, blues and sandstone variations. She would pull together a pile of the ones she thought were prettiest, even adding to the pile, an empty seashell that might be a good match. At the sound of her niece's voice, she turned to glance at her while she showed a stick to her friend. She watched the one sided conversation for a moment, and as Juniper walked away from Phil with a huff, she laughed.

"What if he's looking for a girlfriend? Maybe Phil is lonely and wants someone to take walks with!" She turned to pick up a few of the rocks she had found, along with the seashell and made her way towards Phil. Setting them down, she sat as she looked at Juniper. She felt odd asking a rock what it wanted...so she would leave it to her niece. "You know him best, does he like any of these?"
