Visitors!

Rosalia headed through the forest, every so often subtly glancing behind her. Every time, she'd see a little Timberwulf doing its best to keep up. Really, it had been following her around since the Leafdusk Fete… All because they had accidentally gone home. Now, they were headed to Pixiehome again - this time, on purpose. …Hm. Which way was it, again…?

“Wuuu?” asked the Timberwulf.
“W-what do you want…? I mean, no, we're not there yet.”

Elsewhere, a fluffy grey pixyn hummed as she trotted around her house. In her paws was a potted plant that eagerly swayed from side to side. She gently set the pot down by her open door, allowing its inhabitant - her Musha friend! - to pop into the ground just outside.

“Musha-sha! ☆” it cheered.
“Hehehe, you're welcome!” Fei replied. She watched the Musha as it roamed about the garden.

“Now, isn't it a lovely day?” she asked nobody in particular. It was technically night (for most of the month, anyway), but the pixyn had somehow gotten into the habit of calling it ‘day’ by mistake… “Ohhh, I hope this good weather will carry over for the Ball! What do you think?”
“Musha~”
“Aw, I’ll be just fine! ♪ --Oh, if I could bring you along, you’d be able to have so much fun!”
“Mu, muu…”
“Hm… I didn’t think of that! Well, once I return, I’ll paint you a lovely picture of the dancefloor!”

Fei hummed again, nodding to herself. “I have a good feeling about this! I just wonder when Rosalia might arrive? I sent her a handmade map, so I’m sure it shouldn’t be too difficult…”

“Awuuuu~”

Fei turned her head. Bounding towards her front door was her fellow forest friend, a mischievous Timberwulf! “Oh! Why hello there, Timby!” she called. It ran in a semicircle before her, and wagged its tail as she petted it. Some distance away, but gradually approaching, was a pink and red moxyn, seemingly hurrying for whatever reason.

“Oh!! Hello, Rosalia!” Fei called. “We were just thinking of you!”
“...Hey there,” they replied.

Behind them rushed a fluffy creature - another Timberwulf?!
“Wauw!” it barked, as if to say, “I'm here, too!”

In response, Timby perked its ears up. Soon the two Timberwulves became best friends, and started gleefully racing around the garden together.

“Thank you for coming to help me out today - I really appreciate it!”
“You're welcome,” Rosalia replied. “You asked for my help, after all… I didn’t expect you to get stuck on your Crystalnight costume design, though.”
“Neither did I!” The pixyn fluttered her wings for effect. “I was so sure I’d had the perfect idea, but then… Poof! It slipped out of my mind!”
“Uh… I see.” In a lower voice, Rosalia added, “...By the way. Are you wearing your Brighthollow Banquet costume?”

Fei flashed a tiny smile at them. “It’s good inspiration! Besides, I worked really hard on this, so I've got to wear it as much as possible!”

Rosalia sighed lightly. “...That makes sense.”
“Ehehe! Now, let's get started!”
“Mushamusha!”
“Wuff! Wuff!”
“...Yeah, let’s do this.”
