"Let's pick up the pace," you say. "We can get to those trees and rest there."
Thimble makes no objections - she only follows you silently, with a far-off expression. Scat moves to the front, jogging a little ahead of you to make sure it's safe.
The trees are oddly close together, and the grass quickly grows tall enough that you can't see above your head. When you push through, Scat is sitting down and picking things out of his pelt.
"Hatethesehatethesehatethese," he growls when you approach him.
"You must have gone through a burr patch," you say. "Did you move to the right or left?"
"Dunnodon'tcare." He hisses when he accidentally bites down on one. "Hatethese!"
"To the right," says someone.
Scat ducks behind you as you look around for the owner of the voice. The inner circle of the beech trees is cloaked by a strange vine that you haven't seen before. A piece shuffles and is pushed aside, revealing a big, fluffy brown cat heading your way.
"You must have gone to the right," she says to Scat. "That's where all the Annies grow."
Who are you?
This place is taken, then?
Good evening.
Are we intruding?
