Peggy had started the day with no understanding of what it would bring. The same routines have been keeping her busy, between the bunker and checking on Tony and ensuring that she's got her plants ready for the winter. Perhaps it's the monotony of the routine that's allowed her to get do distracted today, when she's out by the river around the bunker's outside, working to see if there's any other information she can gather.

Before she came here, when she worked every day with the SSR and her attention had been heightened, she would have caught both the sound of the snorting and the absent tickle of something in her head immediately. As it stands, she's going to blame her exhaustion for why it doesn't register right away, but it doesn't. She's working one moment, the next she turns and there it is, looming, a great big warthog that she knows are wildly dangerous.

By the looks of the coat, winter is coming, but also, this appears to be the male, which means that she's in a terrible situation.

That's the first part she should have noticed.

The second is that when she tries to reach into her mind, paging through thoughts of what she recalls about the things, there's something else there, like a nudging thing. Her power with her scrubs is showing her a path towards something (or someone?), but as she squints, she doesn't think that it's necessarily anything she can work with.

After all, isn't that just a part of the foliage? How on earth is that going to help her against a giant creature?
