Tomorrow Arrives

*Sota* · 01-25-2019, 07:13 PM

Sota had been too surprised to catch up with his friend that he'd all but forgotten his usual courtesies. Such things were common, even among the closest of friends, and Sota could already imagine how his elders might scold him for such impudence. Ack! Almost as soon as he spoke and steadied himself on the branch he'd leapt onto, Sota offered a brief but exaggerated bow to his friend. Perhaps it was a bit too hurried, but he had a feeling Balsam wasn't as concerned about traditions as he himself was, if he'd gone this far from home for a girl, of all things. He was reminded of his meeting with Velvette and decided he thought Balsam a touch less insane for coming after her after getting a proper look at her. She was quite beautiful, he had to admit. Perhaps Balsam was on to something after all...

He sighed a bit too dreamily, though was brought back to reality by his friend's response. "A wise one!" Sota responded quickly, but his words were half-hearted at best. Tradition was safe, but he knew there was more to the world than sticking to the familiar. He'd followed Balsam out here after all, hadn't he? "And you probably would hide in the trees forever if Velvette was up there with you." He wasn't being sassy, merely pointing out a fact, but the outspoken nature of his words was a rarity for the small boy - proof of just how comfortable he was around Balsam. His infatuation with her was no secret, and even though he hadn't been explicit about coming here specifically for her, finding her along Balsam's general trail had instantly confirmed it. "Do you have a plan yet, now that you're here?" Again, nothing in his voice was accusatory, merely curious. He was resigned to helping him in whatever way he could, and he'd rather know what he ought to expect.
