Halo was finding her new normal. So it goes, when you have to completely start over. Maybe that was the source of the gloom that seemed to color her world. A grey filter through which to view pretty much everything, even on the good days. It wasn't so much that it bothered her, just a fact of being. Still, certain things were enough to bring her to life. She's softly grateful for the sun warm around her shoulders, and the warmth of the spring day. Grateful as she was, there was still the anxiety that came with being away from the safety of the Armada boundary. Horsetail. She needed horsetail, and she would keep her gaze trained on the ground until she found it. Halo didn't realize there was someone out here until he spoke. The tenderhearted girl nearly jumped out of her skin-- how could she be so stupid. After the predator incident, how could she be caught unaware like this? Though her heart pounded in her chest, when she finally lifted her gaze to look at the man, she was a bit surprised. His tail tucked between his legs. As her pulse returned to normal, Halo was able to steady herself. "I'm sorry," her eyes were still wide, both ears pressing downward. "I, um, was just looking for some herbs," Halo rambled, nervous. She felt the need to explain... heck, she could probably explain herself out of existence at this rate. "Sorry," had she taken over the same spot he was searching? Oh no. |
