Today While the Blossoms Still Cling to the Vine

"I can't pretend to be surprised, finding you like this," her sister said in a dry tone. Bouncing to the right again to dodge some snapping jaws, Iskra could only grin at first lest she lose her highly important concentration. Maybe if she wasn't busy right now she'd have returned Artemis' reaction the first time they reunited and went charging over to the taller woman to smother her in affection. As it was, she was a pinch on the preoccupied side of things right now and opted instead to give a soft chuckle as she darted forward and managed to smack the badger's back in a daring move which was quickly followed by a backwards leap to avoid the retaliation of the small, angry beast. She was playing one dangerous game, moving with the finesse of a dancer in perfect timing to avoid the enraged strikes of her opponent. "Don't let me think I'm becoming predictable or I might just see it as a challenge and be forced to take things to a whole new level," she warned with a raucous laugh, cut short as the little badger finally managed to swat at one of her forelegs. Shit. Finally feeling quite done with her game, Iskra turned and zipped over to the nearest tree, standing beside it and sticking her tongue out the now livid animal she'd been messing with for so long. It charged after her, and at the last moment Iskra zipped around the tree and raced toward, then past Artemis with a gleeful cackle, "Better run before he catches one of us!" She wasn't sure if it would actually divert it's attention to Art of not, but the idea that it might do such thing would probably get Artemis moving pretty quick.
