Although she was being pulled along and should have lost herself in the feeling more, all of the deeper thoughts were still coming back to her. All about the feeling of Kneesocks in her place and looming over her. They were wonderful.

Except that Kneesocks had so many insecurities. Not that Scanty minded too much, since she loved the thought of being able to comfort her in the first place, but she did wish Kneesocks thought higher of herself. While there was still no conversation between them and the hints of awkwardness still hung, Scanty was certain that Kneesocks enjoyed this as much as she did. A low sigh escaped her.

Kneesocks was glad that she had an amazing memory for paths, not directions. She had no idea where she was going, but she knew it was the right way. Sure enough, they left the forest significantly closer to her trailer than where they had entered.

“See? A shortcut!”

Scanty’s sigh had bothered her, but she had managed to deduce it wasn’t for something negative - if she didn’t like Kneesocks being pushy, she could stop it ever so quickly, and if she hadn’t wanted to wait, she wouldn’t have talked. It must have just been her sister’s thoughts, beautiful as they must be…
