The patchwork girl was quite content to be wandering, despite having been sorely missing her family. None of them had made very recent appearances, and she was beginning to feel like she was all alone here. Where could they all have gone? She sighed heavily as she padded through the immense maze of stone slabs. Her ebony coat soaked up the heat of the sun without mercy, but it had never been very thick to begin with so it was actually quite welcome after the past winter and spring. Her head hung between her shoulders as she plodded along, tongue lolling from her maw as she panted quietly under the intense heat.
Even her siblings had disappeared, which wasn't unlike them, but such time had passed between sightings of them that she was beginning to feel as though something had happened to them. Maybe she should consider joining a pack, just so she didn't feel so alone all the time. However, what would she do in a pack? It wasn't like she was good at anything, or worked well with others. Sighing audibly, she slumped to the ground and sat amid all the beautiful stones as though there was nothing to see here. Slowly, her toxic gaze rose to take in her surroundings. It was a crime to be so depressed in a place like this, right? Yet, that somehow changed nothing. She wanted her family, or someone to talk to at the very least, after so long spent wandering around without anyone to talk to.
Her sides heaved with the force of her second sigh, but she couldn't bring herself to get up and keep walking. Things must have changed while she was walking, something to make her family disappear without a word of warning to her. Had they gone back home? She'd never been, but from what she understood, it had been a really shitty place, and they'd had no reason to go back. Had someone kicked them out, driven them away? The colourful lass glanced around, but no distractions arose to bring her mind away from all this. Maybe she should go to Secretua, she'd heard her Aunty Akemi had been living there last time she'd talked to her family. Maybe Akemi would know...
Slowly, she would rise to her feet, acidic orbs flicking to and fro. It was so lovely here, maybe she would go after a quick stroll through the labyrinth. Maybe it would lift her spirits, too. Tea cupped paws would pad silently across the lush grass, dark pads tickled by the soft stems underfoot. There wasn't much to see here in the maze of rock, but there must be a hell of a view up on top of the slabs of stone. As she wandered, she sought out a good place to jump up and see what kind of view this place offered. When she did come across one, she leaped atop it without a thought, and smiled a little at the view. It was rather nice, despite the sun high above her beating down upon her narrow spine. This did make her feel a little bit better.
