Buffalo Gals Won't Ya Come Out Tonight [Jay]

The majority of Jay's life had been spent within Avalon thus far, and so she didn't really have many friends outside of her family and packmates, not really. That wasn't to say she had any complaints about that - but admittedly when she did come across the scent of someone else that she knew, she was inclined to follow it. That's what friends did, right? Check up on each other? She didn't even stop to consider if Tarnish viewed her as a friend or not. She knew that she viewed him as one and that was all that really mattered.

The yearling crested the top of one of the higher knolls that stood here overlooking the rest. Summer was fully upon them now and the world was full of life and color, something Jay was enamored with. She was pretty sure she'd never seen such a lovely shade of green before as she did now, looking over the rolling hills that spread out as far as she could see. The smell of prey was plentiful, and with it mingled the smell of other animals, of birds and wolves and flowers and herbs. There was so much in this world to see, to explore, to experience, and Jay found herself grateful for it all.

She spotted the crow circling before she found Tarnish, and she slowly descended the hill she'd climbed, heading in his direction. The smell of bison grew stronger as she approached and she found herself wondering if that was what he was after today.

"Hey!" Jay called out once she got closer, grinning his way. She tried keeping her voice down, not wanting to startle him or interrupt whatever he was doing. "We meet again," she teased him lighty. "You out here hunting?" Sniffing at the air, she grabbed hold of the scent and gestured vaguely in its direction.
