Link to last scavenge session: Inia #612, Pennyroyal #703, & Guilla #661Extra: Pennyroyal scampers up the rusted iron stairs to the top of the adjacent building, darting on feather-light paws towards the roof. She stills at the zenith, surprised to see Inia sitting alone, back to her. Her wings faintly fluttered in the night wind. The nearby planet hugged the horizon, though it was the lights of the city around them that blotted out the light of a few stars, not its green hazy glow.
"PR--" said Inia, head cocked to the side.
Pennyroyal froze, caught just before her retreat. She squeezed her eyes shut and sighed, stepping forwards to join Inia.
"Y-yes?"
"You didn't have to go," Inia said, looking at her paws in her lap briefly before turning her attention off to the horizon.
Pennyroyal's face grew warm. She didn't have an excuse. It wasn't like she was
avoiding Inia, but...
"You looked like you wanted to be alone," she said, also looking at the planet.
"Nah, any time's well-spent with you." Inia glanced over at Pennyroyal, who blinked back at her and smiled a little, but didn't reply. Searching her face and finding nothing, Inia leaned back on her upper set of paws, closing her eyes. She let her head tilt towards the wind as the breeze ruffled her fur and her feathery antennae.
Pennyroyal wished she was wearing her Guild jacket as she shivered from the cold. She didn't realize just how warm her greenhouse was until she stepped outside. The night wind seemed colder too without the usual boisterous chatter between them.
"I--"
"You--"
They both stopped.
"You go first," Pennyroyal said.
Inia took a big gulp of air. "I...I've been worried about..." Inia glanced at Pennyroyal. "The team." She shoved her paws into her jacket pockets. "Guilla's been odd lately. We've been weird."
Pennyroyal opened her mouth to protest, but Inia interrupted her with a tired smile. "You know we have. I just...don't want anything to change. Everything feels..." she turned towards the planet. "More distant."
Pennyroyal sighed, curling her thorny tail around herself. "Yeah. I've been so caught up in my work lately. I've made so many great discoveries lately, with--" (The Fetch) "...in the Wastelands. And in the stuff Veridas left behind."
"It's fine," said Inia.
"It's not," said Pennyroyal, putting a small green paw on hers. "It doesn't excuse it. I'm sorry. I...enjoy being your friend. I should do more to act like it."
Inia blinked at her and scratched her chin with her shoulder. "You shouldn't feel obligated to do anything around me. Your work's important to you. We don't have to...be around each other to be friends."
"I'd like to," said Pennyroyal, stubbornly, clutching Inia's wrist tightly. The two locked eyes, holding each other's gaze intensely. The stars blinked overhead. Inia's snout pitched almost imperceptibly forwards. Then the breeze blew, taking the moment with it.
"I...I've also been worried about Guilla too," continued Pennyroyal, pulling back. "It's like if I can just understand more of this world, what we've got growing around us, maybe I can help them out too. Cut from the same cloth and all."
"Y-yeah. I understand. I don't know much about any of that but. You know me! Always ready for a trip to the Wastelands to dig for roots or whatever." Inia said, standing up. "Um. I'm gonna go inside. My butt's getting numb. See you tomorrow--"
"Wait," said Pennyroyal, standing also. "Let me walk you home."
