And rolls smoothly with a 'tadaa'

"Hmph!" Folded arms.. but then a grin.

"Don't worry, one day I'll get Really cocky and land on my head" A wink

"Horns'll break your fall?"

"Well, hard headedness is in the family" she makes a knock thing on her head.

A laugh. "Or the kith?"

"Well yeah" A grin with wolf teeth "You got it too"

"Or... family, yeah..." She echoes, soft and uncertain.

"Jaymes is your Uncle, right?"

"Yes, he is." She nods with a smile," Sort of. He's the brother of me da, but from a past life? But he was on the ship with me so he's Uncle Jaymes to me. Course i got lots of Aunts and Uncles if I count crew"

"So... I mean..."

"Not in real life, but for kithian purposes..."

"Sort of?"

"Well, it's real to me" She thinks on it "Not sure how else to say it, but blood is only part of it"

"He said he'd take the oath. But there's two parts, so... I'm not s'posedta oath until I'm sained."

Huff. "Wish we could just get that done with, THEN I could go to Firnost..."

"You really want to go to Firnost, don't you?"

"I just... I dunno, I want to see what other freeholds are like."

"Oh. Mmm well...maybe we can get a drive there sometime. Take a train or somewhat."

"You think there are any in the city? That's just a bus..."

"NOt sure..." She says with a sigh "Or..no, don't know anyone who flicker flashes folks"

"There HAS to be one in New York..."

"Well, eventually we'll get a way there , though it might be after your saining and I may have to under go some weird test' Hrumph

"Weird test?"

"to make sure I could stand banality if I DID take a bus, plane or train." Glumphs

"Ohhh.."

"Yeah, see you they worry the trods would be rough on. For me? they worry the mundane side. Grass always greener I guess"

"So, like, the two of us should balance out..."

"Ha! you would think so, would ye not?"

"I would. I just don't see how scary a trod can be."

"Oh, powerful scary... the silver is supposed to be safe, but there are dozens of tricks and lures to pull you off it, and every once in awhile, a danger finds a way to bypass the ban" she says "And is no less dangerous for it"

"Sounds exciting."

"Well..yes" She admits.

"But I'm not supposed to encourage it. I'm supposed to... "Her brow knits all serious, much like her mother, and she shakes her head back in forth in a no like her dad

"All that" a bit of a smile

"You aren't a boss, though. C'mon... have you been there yet?"

"No nno, and liek you I'm really curious."

"You know the Dreaming real well, right? You could lead the way..."

"Actually, I know the SEA Dreaming well, the roads not so much and.." A suspicious look, "Are ye trying to tempt me into going so you can tag along?"

"Maybe? I mean, way safer than a bus..."

"We don't know that ths' the case for you," A sigh "I do want to go but... you know, ma and da are trying to trust me more. Parties and things. Seems a poor way to repay them to go rushing off."

Siiiigh.

"Right. Okay. Wanna do something, though?"

"Sure... we could hit the woods?"

"Yeah! Still some light left..."

"Have you seen the bridge yet?"

"Which one? to the DeBukes? Plenty"

"No, there was one in the woods, near the bear."

"C'mon... we'll find it!" To her feet and towards the door!

"Near the bear?? "She grabs her weapon just in case and follows
