Maybe they're seeing something we don't, darling.

A lot had changed for Lexi from her childhood, through her teen years, and into adulthood. One thing that hadn't? Getting pulled into crazy adventures, oh joy of joys.

This particular adventure wasn't even a treasure hunt, either. No, this was one of her dumb best friend's explorations. Why did she keep letting herself get dragged along on these? Ugh. She and Gobo were checking out an old mining site near Birchpointe. It was supposed to have been cleaned out of valuable ores long ago, so... Still didn't count as a treasure hunt, which was always the silver (or gold) lining to these things.

Of course, Lexi wasn't actually having the bad time of it she was acting like - no, she loved to spend time with Gobo. For a while, there had been a number of factors that made that a rarity, but now it was easier to hang out and chill. Or hang out, trip, and nearly fall headfirst into a mining cart.

Luckily, Lexi managed to catch herself by grabbing onto the sides of the cart, but still. "I hate your dumb ideas," she muttered, glaring at Gobo. Partially because she was embarrassed about her stumble, but mostly because it was how he'd know she was okay.

Gobo laughed at the noogie, but before he could even begin to push back she'd released him. Smiling, he rested his tail along behind her, almost automatically; in a way it was, a natural gesture of affection for him, no matter who it was.

"Thanks. Your company would be really great to have down there." He smiled at her, lingered, realized he was lingering and why and then looked away with a bit of a cough in his throat. "So. Further down?"

She raised her eyebrows a bit, she noticed his gaze staying a little 'too' long. He was a loser, he was adorable, and he was a prince of a guy. She shook her head, amused.

"Yeah, down we go," she agreed, but didn't start walking again just yet. Instead, she leaned down and kissed his cheek. "For luck."

His eyes widened a little at the kiss, and he looked up at her, blushing faintly across the snout. Then he smiled and gave her hand a little squeeze, starting to walk off down the tunnel with her.

She grinned on seeing him blush, and gave a quick wink his way before they headed off. Though there was an added layer to things in this instance, it was also exactly the way they'd gone off on their next adventure countless times over the past several years: Together.
