A Mouse's Ear

Opal became delighted as the group came upon a clearing, which was covered in all kinds of flowers. Right away she noticed to soft blue Myosotis nearby, "Hey look! Forget-me-nots!" Opal announced with her normal cheer before fluttering down to greet them. Though she seemed to become lost in thought in the process. Unlike normal she was quiet and clam as she traced the petals with her fingertips, being sure to stay safely away from the yellow pollen in the center.

She couldn't help but ponder if perhaps it felt different to her compared to the much bigger members of her party, or if maybe it was because she was a druid and more in-tune with nature. Well, even more so than the normal fairy, with her training and such. Or maybe just being more dedicated to nature in general. Before her thoughts trailed off to other, more personal things.

Her thoughts were finally returned when she heard the crunching of leaves as someone approached, having not heard them call her name. The tears she hadn't even noticed welling up behind her eyes decided to pour over as she looked up.

"O-Oh..! Um.." She quickly turned away, wiping at the tears rather aggressively. "I'm fine, I'm fine! I promise." Opal assured them. She wasn't lying, she was ok.

Her classic grin spread across her face, tears still leaking down her face.
