Halo's tail wagged softly as she walked with the yearling. "I have some experience, but I learn more every day. Sedna has been a big help," she couldn't help but smile. The older woman had been kind, and she was looking forward to more lessons by her side. Learning came easily to the pale healer, as long as she had the right teacher. It was also nice that Sedna wasn't quite as giant or intimidating looking as many of the others that called the Armada home... though she had come into contact with sharks and lived to tell the tale. That was enough to intimidate Halo just a little, but heck, she did find most things intimidating. "The hope is that none of the bees die," Halo clarified, sighing softly. "We need to get enough home to make sure the colony is healthy, otherwise I have to track down and find even more bees." The explanation seemed to make sense in her head. It was the tenderhearted girl's hope that they only had to capture bees once, and she could get this colony stabilized and bolster their numbers enough to help them survive through the winter. She had plenty of time before the winter itself set in, but she was still worried. "I think," Halo looked to Kotori, tail wagging. "Just make sure that you open the lid for the bees, and then shut it when there aren't bees coming your way." Halo nodded emphatically, setting down her own pail. Quickly, she moved to pluck several dandelions from the ground, nosing the lid to the formerly empty bucket open and dropping them inside. "In a couple weeks, when they've settled in and have honey to spare I will. I can offer you fish when we get home," she spoke to Fang, before her gaze flickered to Kotori. "Does he eat fish?" Halo didn't know anything about mongeese (mongooses?), but it would be interesting to learn. Though she was doing her best to hide it, it was Splash that made Halo a bit anxious. "Ready?" Halo picked her pail back up, moving in the direction of the swarm. She'd cut wide around them, careful not to scare them off quite yet. At this distance, she'd be able to hear a ready from Kotori, and then she could begin herding the bees in his direction. To her, it seemed like it should all work out at least reasonably well. |
