Tell The World, I'm Coming Home

Eyes watch the little ball of energy named Outlaw as they sit near the border and wait. Even the happy, animated wolf seems to be losing some of the pep in his step. It becomes evident to her that he might be starting to lose steam when her own yawn seems to pull a matching one from Outlaw. Wide, surprised eyes watch him for moment before the giggle start. They bubble up and out and Meadow doesn’t even know why she is giggling. Oh, yeah. She is definitely sleepy.

When her bout of giggles subsides, the small healer nods to Outlaw’s statement that he is good, not quite believing him but not giving voice to that belief. It does not escape her attention that his rapid-fire pace of speech is starting to slow and her eyes once more examine him. Sleepy smile appears and she says, “Oh yes, very fun! But you have had a very long day too. I think that sleep will be a good idea… for both of us.”

Another yawn tries to escape but Meadow clamps her mouth shut firmly and tries to hide it. The need to distract herself from her bodies urge to sleep as they wait for Resin has her asking her friend, “So, Outlaw, what is your favorite thing about your home?” Her sluggish brain can’t seem to come up a better question to ask but it will do. Looking to her friend, she offers him another smile and focuses all her attention on what he has to say.



"Speech!"
