Here I am, and I'm hoping you can understand.

It was something that got easier, telling people who she was. After Unca Scrooge and Louie, she'd been dead set on telling her family back home before she told anyone else. Lena and Violet had been filled in shortly after that, in part so Lexi could have Lena help her pick out some new clothes. She still loved her old hoodie, but it was definitely boxy and overall boyish, so she preferred just wearing it around the house these days. For that day's meet-up with Gobo, she'd opted for a long button-up shirt - green, of course - along with some gold-colored bangles that had been a gift from her mother after she'd told her. While she wasn't sure it would be a clearly feminine look to Gobo, she felt nice wearing it. That was all she was going for, more or less. Gobo didn't know yet, because it had only been a couple days, and they both kept busy at times. Well, Gobo kept busy, with exploring and map-making... Lexi, on principle, tried not to be busy ever.

Her bangles jingled against each other on her wrist as she headed down the Fraggle Hole - she'd gotten pretty familiar with the spot near her home, over the years. And Gobo was making most of the trek, not her, so she didn't have to worry beyond that, really. As she made her way through that first stretch of underground tunnel, she found herself humming. It was just something about being down there, and she was sure that was why the humming eventually grew into soft singing.

"And I know
I'll find my way -
I'm closer every day
To someone I can be,
No, it's not easy,
But you can figure it out with me."

The first thing she's going to hear is gentle guitar music, its own song but still working with her own. Not long after is she going to come up onto Gobo, who'd chosen a spot near her part of the tunnel to wait, and had been singing to pass the time.

♫ While the sun goes 'round, I'll still be found
Following the sound
Something's calling me
When the world goes drifting back to bed
Memories in my head
Wonders follow me

Every morning
Every day
Every evening
