"Are you sticking around town after saining, or going on Walkabout? Not that I'm trying to run you off. Seems like everyone is branching out to new adventures these days, though."

"I don't know , truth. I know that there's some mortal stuff I want in on. Police Reform is still needed you know? So tha migh mean some travel. But I have found quite a few ladies around here like the new me"

She rolls her eyes, but smiles. "There's a lot to like about old and new. Just don't let your horns go to your head."

She reaches up and touches her horn, a momentary frown crossing her face. But it fades.

"Hey, what's wrong?" His horn is golden and strong but his concern quite there

"Just remembering a fight we had, on the trip to Jonas's home island. I got a horn chonked off, but their healer fixed it up. I just keep getting nervous. Like, I think it's gonna fall off or something. Silly, right?"

"Hold a sec." He grabs her horns, and gives them good tugs making her head bounce a little "Nope. YOu're good . I can see why you're worried though" he lets go "without your horns you're even shorter."

She squeaks and bats at him! "You!!!"

HUFF! Puff!

He laughs

"Sorry, but you seemed stressed about it, I figured teasing you about your height ..that would get you up on your hoofs"

She grins at him. "It helped, I think." Chuckling. "Well, thanks for the warning about the herding... and the invite. I'll be sure to show up with bells on."

"Thanks, I couldn't have made it without you, zane and..well, heck, everyone. "

She gives him a bit of a butt to the chest. "That's what family does, cuz."

"Yeah, but doesn't mean I'm going to take it for granted. Hey. It's a bit soon to celebrate, but if you like, I'll invite you and you two crew to a resturant dinner if you like? "

(Pause)

"Aren't we supposed to be celebrating you?" She grins. "You pick the place, we'll take you out."
