I saw a piece of heaven
Relief and gratitude warmed the blue of Seren's eyes, and she nodded. Wise words from a young person, but though they seemed of an age, Maeve had the added benefit of actually experiencing all her years. Would that she could be so sure in herself one day. "Thank you. For being so understanding," Seren said, and sneaked a hand out to give Maeve's fingers a quick squeeze. It felt like a daring thing to do... which spoke volumes of how unprepared the girl was for anything more than the most basic of friendships.
The offer surprised her. But barely a second later, the clouds passed from the starchild's skies, and the smile she returned was radiant. As warm and bright as a Torchline sun. "I'd love to," she assured. "Fair warning though, I don't know any good places yet. It will have be an adventure." Of course, that prospect brought on a mischievous glitter of anticipation, and in a few bounding steps she was right by the path, ready to leave. Food was such an excellent motivator.

Waiting, impatient, for me
