Title: All Clear Rating: PG Prompt: 25. grin like a dog Summary: Sometimes the best part is who you work with.
Daja broke away from her friends, magical self speeding back into her physical body. She opened her eyes, blinking until she could focus again. She was seated inside the copper mine – they'd thought that might help the others get a clearer picture of where they were headed.
“All clear,” she said to Kirel, who'd been acting as a spotter while she and the others worked..
“Just like that?”
“Just like that,” Daja confirmed. “No-” she interrupted herself with a huge yawn “-sweat. But, uh, maybe I'd better lie down.”
Kirel looked worried. “Can you get out to the wagon all right? Are you going to be out for days?”
“Yes to the first question, no to the second. We're all a lot better at pacing ourselves than we used to be. And we're a lot stronger, too.” But she stretched out her mind to her friends. Guys? Everybody all right?
Briar answered. Of course. Tris is asleep already, and Sandry's fussing over her, but we're fine. You?
Daja got shakily to her feet. I'm fine, too. She wobbled a little, and Kirel gribbed her elbow. That was... fun.
Yeah, Briar agreed. Let's do it again some time.
Work together and save the day? Sure. Daja grinned. Through their magical connection, she could tell Briar was grinning, too.

Oh, this is priceless!! I like that they're feeling the same kind of nostalgia that I am.

Oh, thanks! I wrote this, posted it, and then completely forgot 31_days existed for about 72 hours. Oops. Dunno when I'll manage to finish...
