autumn festival 1

"No, we're not lost, Rofaran," the smaller pink phim said, as believably as possible. "I mean, I know where we're going." The brown phim beside her snorts at that. She pauses, thinking for a moment. "And I kind of know where we are."

"Really?" The voice of the taller phim beside her is clearly disbelieving, if a bit amused. "You know where we are, and where we're going?"

"Yuuuup," she says, smiling. "It's just hard to get there because... it's a maze. And it's just sooooo fun to spend time with you. So, I'm in no rush." She pauses, leaning in close to him. "Are youuu in a rush? Do youuuuu have somewhere you'd rather be?"

He looks a bit bothered for a moment, and Kokoro takes this and his lack of silence as a bad thing. She sighs, trying to ignore the hurt in her chest. Of course, he'd rather be anywhere else other than be lost with her. I mean, IF they were lost.

OH!!! Who is she kidding? She's definitely lost. Her head and tail droop low, only lifting slightly when she realizes Rofaran is walking forward and looking around.

"Let's just follow this right wall," he says, motioning towards it with his head. "We will eventually find our way out, even if it's not the fastest." She perks up at that, trotting after him and gently letting her tail swipe against him as she walks by his side.

"About time you come up with a solution!" She says, grinning. "But that's my Rofaran~ Always reliable."

"Hm. Always cleaning up after your mistakes?" He says, his voice amused.

"Ugh! It was hardly a mistake.... how about this, I'll buy you a cider after this. Would that be good enough?"

He smiles, though she doesn't see it. Despite being smaller, she's picked up her speed to be almost in front of him now, diligently following his instructions to follow the wall. "I'll look forward to it."
