Whatever thoughts Bumblestar had been lost in were broken and scattered as Violetfreckle headbutted her shoulder. She jolted and turned, at first bristling before she realized who it was.
Her shoulders relaxed.
"Hey. Uh..." She craned her neck to peer behind her at the camp. The clearing was slowly emptying as night began to fall. They'd be fine without her here for a little while. She turned back to Violetfreckle and offered her a smile.
"Yeah, 'course. Lead the way."
