It's easy to assume that Bolder asks whether she practices often because she's obviously so good at shifting. “Oh yeah, whenever I can! I used to practice with my brother a lot but he’s… well he’s not around right now.” Sickle’s mood droops visibly but when Bolder mentions his aunt giving him shifting advice, she perks up a little at the coincidence of it. “Hey my aunt was helping me with my shifting too!” Vastra was a pretty grumpy teacher but it had become a game with her and her cousins to see if they could get the older mare to sparkle. Sometimes all it took was a particularly ridiculous shift or shade of pink, but sometimes those stormy grey eyes wouldn’t light up for anything. It was a great game.
She pauses in her search, beaming when Bolder follows her lead and launches between the trees and introduces himself. “I’m Sickle.” She replies, still grinning. This is fun, the meeting new friends part.
She’s just about to check under another branch when she notices something a little odd about her new friend. You know, aside from the fact that they’re both squirrels at the moment.
“Hey Bolder, where’d your shadow go?”
