Hotaru
you talk a lot of shit for someone who's sorry now
Endeared as always by Boreal's antics (and favoritism, which Hotaru will always be smug about) she narrows her eyes playfully at Tal for his chiding. "How dare you presume she could do anything that would make me love her more." It times perfectly with Boreal's imperious eyeroll and ensuing march, and Hotaru follows in her wake suppressing her smile.Alys taking the lead makes her chest fill with pride. Hotaru would always be happy to take charge or use her expertise in a given situation, but Alys knows what she is doing, even if she must get used to the strangeness of enacting it. As for what they're looking for - "They're easy to spot from a distance because they have green stalks but brown clustered tops. No flowers or other protrusions." Which, thankfully, makes them hard to confuse with other plants. "If we don't get lucky soon I can always help Boreal look from above."
