The Renegade

A stylized bird figure with a beak, wearing a blue shirt, seated on a motorcycle against a vibrant orange and red sunset backdrop, with rocky terrain visible in the distance.

The engine putters to a halt echoing off the sheer walls. Devlin exhales grittily—something between a hum of approval and grunt of fatigue. “We’re here Matilda.” Devlin looks out at solid rock, cut and scarred by unrelenting water. He runs a hand over Matilda’s battered frame. “Can’t leave your mark without taking a few yourself, right? Experiences don’t wear you, you wear them.”

Soak in Every Last Ray

Two cartoon bears in swimwear relaxing on inner tubes in a river, with mountains and trees in the background during a sunset.

“It’s not lazy! It’s strategy!” Runa insisted. “It’s too hot to do anything anyway.” Dagny just laughed; she didn’t need convincing. Runa tapped a makeshift beat; water splash snare, inner tube bass. “There’s no need to fear the heat. Summer’s gone in just a beat. Seize the day, get off your feet. Reapply. Relax. Repeat.” Dagny one-upped the absurdity with a second verse, a game continuing well past dinner time. “It’s time to get out,” Runa reluctantly noted, triggering the game’s response in unison: ”One! More! Time!”
