Some of us Bubble, Some Fly

When Talyssa asked her to go out and explore, it never crossed Dusks mind to say no. Tal was her favorite sibling and, after having run ins with caiman and a bear, Dusk couldn't risk letting Tal get injured. The dark child would go along to protect her fair coated sister. Aside from that, she truly did like to explore and she hadn't been to the falls yet.

Dusk followed along beside Tal, stopping to sniff this and that as they went. She found that she really liked the smell of the cedars. It was rich and earthy. Very pleasing. The girl wondered if she could bring that smell back home with her somehow. "Do you think we could plant cedar trees back at home?" The child's head tilted slightly as she looked up through the foliage of one of the tall, tall trees. Who could she ask about plants? How did you even plant a tree? Dusk could barely tell the difference between plants and weeds, so this was way beyond the girl.

The pair continued on together and she could hear the far off roar of the falls. The closer they came, the louder that roar grew. Dusk could smell the tangy scent of fishy water and she wrinkled her dark nose in distaste for a moment, tongue flicking over her front teeth. Dusk didn't like fish one bit. As they came to the drop off, the girl's fire opal eyes went wide with wonder and her jaw dropped open. A soft "Wooooooooooow..." pulled from the pup as she looked out over the misty land below the falls. Dusks gaze flashed towards Tal and she grinned. "This is so cool!"
