 Little Lady was tired. Her body ached with each step, tail rolling side to side as if attempting to shake free the gnawing exhaustion from her body. She'd been on another one of her hunts, seeking ghosts, fairies, and the like with no results to show for it. Her travels had taken her back to the swamp, like it often did, and Lady took this as a moment to relax. She tossed herself unceremoniously against the base of a tree, folding her front legs neatly before resting her head on top. For a moment, her eyes flicked to watch the grass swaying in the breeze, letting out a soft and tired hum in response. Oh, adventuring was fun, but sometimes? Sometimes it was lonely. It wasn't often she'd admit it, but this trip had been rather..... lonesome. She had spotted a family along her travels and it only served to remind her that she didn't really have anyone to come home to. Or, a friend, even. A friend would do!
Honestly, she spent so much time seeking the unknown, she hadn't really thought to secure herself a relationship or two. She had her family, which she loved dearly, but everyone had things to do and places to go! Lady couldn't just abruptly greet them every time she felt lonely. Not at all! Maybe she ought to seek a pet out... something that could be with her forever. But, they didn't offer any conversation to be had! Well, some did, but it wasn't like Lady knew where to find those.
With a disheartened sigh, Lady shifted her position, eying the sun through the curtain of trees with a lonely frown.

Come Again, really, really, did not want to go back to the current grove that his family was in. It wasn't that there was anything wrong with the grove, or his family, or anything really. They weren't the type to fight and Return had even been asked by By the Roots if he wanted to join them to check on some groves, which was nice of the kiokote to ask. No, everything was perfectly fine, which was why he didn't want to go back to the grove, it was just... boring. So he had left off on the guise of a walk, saying he'd be back at the end of the day or maybe another day at the most. Now he was just debating if he should leave again, try and go on another journey to look for what love was.
He huffed a gentle sigh as he trailed forward, giving a small kick at a rock in his path. His mother loved him, he knew, but what was love really? Had she loved his father, if he was so terrible? He had never been faulted by his family or anyone in the groves for his likeliness to the buck in looks, but he knew that he was a less than ideal kin. It almost felt like he was being treated extra nicely because of this, even though he knew it wasn't true. So maybe it was time to leave again, take another journey and find another kin, if only to shake the feeling.
Return took a turn and looked up from the ground, surprised to find a doe draped underneath a tree that he had become familiar with rather recently. "Hello?" He called out cautiously, wondering what the frown on her face was for.

Perhaps MotherFather was smiling upon her, or luck was simply in her favor, but her loneliness was shattered when a cautious voice called out. Up went the petite doe's head as they swiveled to look at the newcomer, her tail giving a gentle greeting flick. Oh. A buck. Shifting, she quickly sat up, tail curling around her lower body as she tilted her head in his direction, her frown slowly turning into a cautious smile.
"Oh, hello there." Was this his tree? Had she trespassed upon territory that was claimed? Her head raised as she gazed up the tree, lowering it once more to eye the buck. "I'm sorry, is this your tree? Or, home, rather?"
