a bouquet of bruises

She didn't look at Skoll, just listening to him talk about it. Adelle managed a small smile as he agreed, fidgeting even more as she waited. She looked over at the pile that Skoll had made with the blades. It looked like it was going to end up quite tall before they got anywhere. Idly Adelle added some grass to the pile, more for something to do than anything else. She wasn't really too sure what else she could attempt to do. It was just something that was there.

She looked up as Skoll spoke, a goofy grin on her face at his words. Like love? Grandpa had explained that to her, with much reluctance. It would be nice. Giggling Adelle nodded her head before breaking loose. Lightly she reached over and tapped Skoll on the shoulder, the tense situation dissolving as she let her childish nature take over once more. Tag! Darting up Adelle broke into a run, entering the woods. They might be turning into adults, but they weren't there yet, and for now she was a child once more, running wild through the woods.
