Smells Like Rain Spirits

The older woman seemed a bit affected by Aggie's question, causing the dusky woman to swallow an unruly chuckle. Oops! She hadn't meant to imply anything, but Lydia was quick to explain herself anyways. Aggie felt her brows creep steadily upwards as the darker shewolf delved into a surprising host of uses for a plant she herself had recently considered poison and little more. "Really? Huh. I only ever knew it would cause harm. If you say so!" She wasn't about to question the her judgement at any rate. If she wanted to bother with it, that was her business! Aggie was more than happy to help, even if she would remain leery until she saw these new curative aspects played out before her. Somewhat lost in her thoughts, she came up short when Lydia suddenly changed course. Aggie stumbled a pace before swiveling to follow. Something had obviously caught her eye, and she peered over the darker pelt before her to see what they were headed to. A column of yellow flowers met her. Ah! This one she was familiar with. Lydia seemed pleased to find it as well, asking if she minded stopping for a bit. "Not a bit. I better snag some myself." Loners were bound to get an unsettled gut from time to time, eating questionable things. Agrimony always had value. She laughed quietly, then asked, "To be clear, I know it will help with the gut and bowels. You're not about to tell me it's also a poison, are you?" She laughed again, and practically felt the red panda on her shoulders roll her eyes. Ylva then scamped down to the ground, and began sniffing around the base of the plant. Aggie watched Ylva quickly rip away two stalks, leaves and all, before trundling back towards her. With her bundle held in one small arm, she leaped back to her place on Aggie's shoulders. "Do you need any more? There might be others around here, or we can carry on. This is all I'd better take, though." She was always wary about overharvesting a place and ruining it for the next time she was in the area. What they'd gathered would be enough for the time being! And summer was not gone yet, which means they would have time to seek out more if need be. She was content to let Lydia take the lead here, realizing that this shewolf was well learned in her herbs, and she would do well to stick close and take notes, if she would allow it.
