[RQ] always on the upswing

the first cut was the deepest, but it healed up whole

As they approach, Sunjata’s prepped and ready, leaning against the wagon easily as he greets Colt with a nod and Hawthorn with the same, pleased to see them both. They flank him separately, so his gaze drifts between the two of them, first to Colt who mentions BBQ which has a deep laugh leaving him. “You and your ribs. You think I’d have a barbecue without you?” He teases her back, before they’re making their decisions.

Without an answer to his previous question, it seems as if they’re all sticking together, so the Flood is content to snag a basket and trail behind them, plucking any of the other colors of flowers that they’ve missed. It leaves his basket with a variety of purple, yellow, oranges, and the rare few green blooms among the mix. It looks like a sunset in his basket as they drift through.

“Alright let’s unload and keep on going.” Sunjata says when it seems like their baskets are full, snagging the ox to follow along with him so they can unload their flowers into the wagon and continue the search.
