The Straight and Narrow Might be a Long Shot

Now that Andy and Kite are down in the Hallows, the purple girl feels a certain calm about… everything. No matter what follows, she is bound and determined to enjoy her time down here with her sister. The change in temperatures is dramatic but Andy has a thicker than normal coat that helps to stave off the chill of the cold northern climates. Which means, she is completely comfortable as she strikes out on the overcast day, the wind biting at her but finding no purchase. The grove is a familiar place with the pleasant, heady scent of ripe berries filling the air.

Andy decides that, the next time she sees Briar, she will compliment the Hallows on their ability to cultivate the multi-seasonal fruits. Suddenly, the wind brings a familiar scent to her nose and smirk slowly tugs at her lips. The girl is great at remaining hidden; her natural stealth having been honed into more of a skill while she was still in her youth. So, without a sound, the girl picks up the boy’s trail, easily filtering out the surrounding scents, and carefully tracks his progress. Slender paws pad quietly through the forest, the clouds lengthening shadows that help to hide her lavender form.

Finally, as the plains open before the pirate, Aresenn pauses, looking out over the wide-open grass. A smile tugs at her lips as she almost sees the wheels turning in his head, questioning if he can make it across the area before being spotted. Silently, Andy detaches herself from the shadows, stalking up behind him so that he, hopefully, does not detect her before she wishes him to. When she is almost on top of him, the girl softly says, “My, my. Are you following me Aresenn? Or, perhaps you are here for more… nefarious reasons?”

Andy keeps her tone light as she comes to stand next to him, pale blue eyes shining with humor as she turns and cocks an eyebrow at him.
