Girls just wanna have fun

To say Atreyu was absolutely buzzing with excitement would be an understatement. With her satchel over her shoulder and riding comfortably on her side, and Bigs trotting briskly beside her, Atreyu moved in the direction Mélisande had told her to meet everyone at. Was it strange to make new friends outside of those from her childhood pack? She did feel a twinge of guilt over it, but they would have wanted her to keep moving forward with her life. It was an alien feeling to be so torn, but she was determined to enjoy the night. While she knew it was meant to be a girl's night, she couldn't have left Bigs alone. The dog was too small to leave unprotected, an owl could get him. She hoped the others wouldn't mind him joining in.

To prepare for the festivities, Atreyu had with her a good-sized bottle of peach wine that she had been working on for a few days. She had done her best to craft a good wine, and made sure to pour it into a big enough bottle to go around. Bigs didn't drink much, and he would be put on guard duty if need be. Soon, she arrived at the designated location. A wide smile crossed her face as she watched the red woman work and fuss over the decorations and details of their little soirée. "Good evening, Mélisande, I hope you are doing well! This looks absolutely phenomenal!" Atreyu said the greeting through clenched teeth before putting down the bottle between her front paws. Bigs nodded his head in agreement, Mélisande had been very busy! The place looked wonderful and Atreyu smiled at her friend. "It is good to see you!" She sat back on her haunches, rising up to offer the little russet woman a warm hug.
