Dolores:my god the view is beautiful, we walked all of that?
Mirabel:we did, and there's still like 2 more days of walking.
*Mirabel smirked a bit seeing Dolores pale a little, Mirabel turned around and walked ahead. Dolores stood there for a bit more just enjoying the sight*
Dolores"I walked all of that"
*Dolores thought feeling a bit of pride on herself, she shook her head and hurried up next to Mirabel. Dolores looked up unsure as Mirabel took her to a cave, she grabbed hold of Mirabel's hand and Mirabel gave it a squeeze to make her feel safer. as they go deeper into the cave, Dolores saw camping equipment*
Dolores: we'll be sleeping here?
Mirabel:yup, it gets absurdly cold outside, I think that's abuelo making sure people don't find the encanto, but that's just a theory
*Dolores hummed as her hand started getting cold, Mirabel let go of it and started building a fire, Dolores with nothing to do just sat down and watched her work again*
Dolores:you know how to do a lot of things
Mirabel:well, that's because I've had time to practice it. Instead of chores of being lazy I learned to be a jack of all traits. Of course Luisa prefers the term 'mary Sue'
*Dolores snorted at that and Mirabel puffed her cheeks in anger, she gave a cute pout to Dolores who couldn't stop chuckling*
Mirabel:keep laughing and I won't be sharing the sleeping bag
Dolores:I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really am trying here. Oh that already feels better
*Dolores said as the cave began to get warmer, Mirabel sat down next to Dolores and passed her some dried meat and water*
Mirabel:there's a lake on the other side of the mountain, tomorrow we'll eat fresh meat, but for now just emergency rations, water and some dried mango pieces
Dolores: I'm sorry
*Mirabel looked at dolores with a raised eyebrow and she just shrugged looking at the fire*
Dolores:I'm not dumb Mirabel, I know that I'm slowing you down, I also know that all the good food we ate on the way over here
Mirabel:true. But I'm not gonna get angry over that, Dolores your new at this kind of stuff, why would I blame you for that?
