Much like Roy, there had been so much that she had been so many people, places, and things that she already found herself missing. She'd never forget the day her daughter was born, or the moment her mother expressed that she was proud of her, or even the lyrics to a certain special song that was written just for her. All of it was far too special and dear to her heart for her to just forget about it. She had a feeling that she could never go back - that she would be stuck like this forever. But being the memory hoarder that she was, she knew that there was just no way she'd ever toss those memories away. If only she had known how much she really had in common with Roy, but at this point she was convinced that she was probably the only one here dealing with this particular situation.

Usually Bex was a deep sleeper, but tonight she wasn't feeling it. The border collie had been busy settling in, anyways. Adjusting to her new living situation was not the easiest thing ever. At least she now had her own room in the observatory. It was comforting to her to know that she had her own space, so that was a bonus. Things could be a lot worse, she supposed. She had only lost all her friends and family after having become a dog, but hey, things could be worse.

After getting in some alone time to think, Rebecca padded outside, feeling a bit better than she had earlier. Perhaps it was the calm of the night that was soothing to her, or her time alone had helped settle her down. Either way, she was happy with it. Now, there were new things that she needed to focus on, such as adjusting to the territory. If there was one thing that Bex was good at, it was finding her way around. She had spent years and years of traveling on her own, after all. At first she was set on exploring on her own, and wasn't expecting to cross paths with anyone this late at night. But as she stumbled upon the canopy, the canine spotted someone... Roy.

Bex was almost certain that Roy wasn't so fond of her. She had crossed over their borders and then gladly talked back to the bobcat when he tried to explain why that wasn't considered a good thing. Quite honestly, Bex wouldn't blame Roy if he was angry at her. She knew that she'd be angry at her if she was in his shoes. She hoped that there were no hard feelings though.

It was a bit surprising for Bex to realize that she had seemed to startle Roy, or at least surprised him with her sudden presence. "Relax... it's just me," the collie explained as she neared closer to the feline, nodding gently in reassurance. "I just thought I'd try to find my way around while everyone else is asleep." Of course she left out some details as to why she was really awake, but she wasn't lying either. Bex then tilted her head slightly, eyes narrowed as she began to wonder what Roy was doing out here so late. She didn't question it out loud, though. Whatever his reasons were, it was none of her business.
