Dear Dad or Deer dad?

As Fern worked on her items, Rudy seemed to stand stock still, eyes still glued to that deer. Nothing seemed entirely odd or out of place about him and the gray girl soon becomes wrapped up with her own things and focus shifts. As she is scratching her chin with the strange metal object, Rudy appears and asks about her boots and hanger. With a shrug, Fern tosses the seemingly useless object to the side and says, “Yeah but this one doesn’t seem to work. Did you talk your ‘deer dad’?” It was not a jest nor meant in a mean way, the gray girl is genuinely curious if the spell thing had worked. Moving to get back on her paws, Fern suddenly feels like she can out run the fastest cheetah. Eyes widen and she exclaims, “Rudy! I feel faster! Maybe these things give me a boost of speed!” Testing her theory, Fern jogs in place a moment, before swiftly zooming down the path and back again. Skidding to a stop in front of the motley boy, Fern squeals in delight and says, “These are so cool!”

Puff looks up to Rudy from her spot on the ground, shrugging small shoulders and shaking her stoat head. Fern stretches and jogs circles around them both, eyes dancing with delight. Finally Puff speaks up, “Alright, alright. Enough you show off! Can we please go do something fun now?” The happy girl just rolls her eyes, moving closer to the stoat to allow it to scramble up her leg. Giggling, Fern says, “So Rudy, whatca want to do?”
