Ain't had time to miss you since you been gone, it's been nothing but neon
The ease with which his chuckles come bites her smile deeper into the side of her cheek, his simple joy contagious. She's watching him carefully though, drifting from the way his hands pull a familiar sight back into being, however foreign it truly is, and the slow read of his answer that his face should tell before his tongue does. What he offers instead takes her a bit by surprise. "I think the better term is camping," she offers for him, features cut into amusement at his confession. "Well, if I'd known we'd be neighbors, I'd have gotten you a...squat warming gift." A chair, perhaps, would be proper in this case.
Although this begs the question of why, and it need not be for long. Plenty of time to muddy it all with some confusion first, and his initial description of time and risks has her tilting her head with the effort of following this trail of thought. "Risking...your...squat? Why," she gasps, a hand sneaking up to her mouth in dramatic fashion for the drama amid the meadows she's not privy to. "Is your, uh, spot a prime one? Have to defend it?" If only she knew that's exactly the case, but rather than a cutthroat housing market he's beating back cattle and rabbits.
She tries to assemble it too soon, the pieces there but not quite fitting, not until he offers up the last tidbit of truth. It's weighted with his quiet for a moment, and she leans in, expecting scandal. What comes next is so startlingly different that she can't keep back the bright, quick laugh that escapes. "Oh gods," she exclaims with eyes widening around understanding, her posture tilting back into something less gossipy and more soft. "That was the last thing I thought you were going to say, but that is wonderful news. Congratulations to you both," she says warmly, smile extending it further as she settles in her seat. "Well, by all means, don't fuck up your baby's growth on account of a rodeo, but if you need any help or supplies while you're here, don't hesitate to drop a line. Can't say I'm too experienced in that department," that being both plants and children, "but I do know a thing or two about corraling wild things." Usually to keep them in, rather than out, but she imagines the premise is similar.
