Sweet Tooth

Location: Destiny Caverns

Duchess had woken up next to Segin from the previous night. It had felt colder than usual, she was used to having not only Indigo's massive form with her but the bodies of the others too. But with that being said, she wasn't disappointed by it. Having only Segin to herself all night, even if it wasn't Indigo, felt like a blessing she didn't know she wanted after Indigo's growing numbers.

She woke quietly, not sure if Segin was still locked in a deeper sleep as the morning was later not that she could tell from the hidden sun on the face of the falls. But the brighter light from outside reflected off the florescent crystal waters of the falls, revealing more of the cave that she hadn't seen here in her time with Indigo and even last night in her time with Segin.

She stretched carefully, her paws curling against his chest as she gently groomed the fur there and around his neck, waiting for him to wake up. When she was sure he was, she rubbed her head into him gently before rising herself and shaking off any bit of tired that was still left in her from waking. Her nose pointed back into the tunneled caverns that had been behind them, "Didn't see that last night." She spoke with a gentle smile, "Wonder if there's anything good through there." They did have time after all, though she supposed it would be a good idea to make it back to Indigo by tonight.
