Astral nearly jumped out of her skin at Alyx's request. How could Alyx have noticed her when she was being so very inconspicuous? 😱

Casting a nervous glance toward Emma and Carrie, Astral bent down and carefully fished the digeridoo out of the bush. "Well, would you look at that!" Astral said, putting on a puzzled face. "It IS a didgeridoo. How could it have gotten here? What a mystery..."

Astral shuffled her feet over to where Alyx stood. She held the instrument in her hands, and she cleared her throat a little before she spoke. "Hypothetically, if I told you I was only scooting it out of the way so noone would trip, would you believe me? You know, hypothetically."
