With so little to do time had become a mere afterthought, day and night blending in the darkness of the enclosed space. It had been a shock to the system when the doors had finally opened, seeing the outside world bathed with sunlight for the first time in close to two weeks too much.
Being here had only worsened her state, every thought turning back to that place, the people she had met and come to consider friends, bonds unbroken though distance had strained it. Beneath her paws the sand crunched softly, each step a slow shuffle, barely lifting as she let her mind wander back, catching on a figure of blue and gold, wanting to be around her again. It took a bit of time before Aita finally lifted her eyes, squinting at the blur of yellow upon the sand, all too bright to be a mere mound of it.
She had grown accustomed to her sight, lacking any ability to tell what things were at a great distance, but there were still moments when it had grown difficult to handle. Picking up a slow pace she slowly moved closer to the strange object, stopping in her tracks when it finally clear some, the familiar frame of the Officer drawing from her throat a groan. They had made no secret of the feelings between the two, no matter the bond of family neither cared for the other and seemed intent on pushing too far, their most recent interaction nearly ending in a fight. Turning on her heel Aita made to walk away, hoping he hadn't heard or noticed her but with the way her luck had been going lately it wasn't likely.
