Two moons, I can feel myself start catching on fire.

Ducky wanted to be mad at her sister for having the willpower to continue on, for bringing them to this place of abundance where their needs could be met, but she'd left her fight in those hills, opting for listlessness instead. She rose when Boneset told her it was time to move on, and she ate the food that they caught, though she was only ever able to manage a few bites. She got herself water, and groomed herself occasionally, but otherwise, Duckweed spent her free time curled up in the crook of a tree, or sprawled out on her side waiting for Bonnie's next command. She knew that her sister was probably worried, but Duckweed just didn't have it in her to care. She was tired, and numb, and nothing was going to change that. When Bones mentioned needing water, Ducky simply hummed her acknowledgement and readjusted herself against the scraggly bush, allowing her eyes to flicker closed. The creek wasn't far, so it's not like her sister needed an escort, and even if she did, Duckweed's presence would probably be more of a hinderance than anything. She wasn't sure how much time had passed, but eventually she woke to the sound of her name. Two sage green eyes cracked open, landing on Bonnie's frame in the distance. The girl seemed to be carrying something, but Duckweed couldn't tell what. Her dark brows furrowed as she lifted her head, hoping to all of the Gods that it wasn't more food. "What's that?" |
