A physicians day was generally long and tedious - this one had been absolutely no exception. Caring for the southern or eastern plants in frostfall had been quite the task, and luckily with new Nurses it was relieved ever so slightly. Still, the days grew long. At least Maude was usually occupied with tasks when she wasnt bleating after Katua, and it meant he could keep watch over her too.
Since that 'episode' with Glasgow he had tried to find her in all her usual places to talk about what exactly had happened, but to no avail. Her home tree had remained empty for what had seemed like many weeks now. It really had caused Tilney to wonder if he was becoming a monster. Who on earth did things like that besides, well, his father? There were a small number of stags he could think of off the top of his head who leapt from mare to mare, but to never speak to them again like he had done to both females? Even Glasgow? Even while he still belonged to Arah? It was these thoughts which had caused many a meltdown, and it had got to the point where he would prevent himself from thinking about much else other than work or Maude. Tilney was sick himself, or so he was convinced. Sick with grief for misplacing Arah, Ultima, and now his dignity. There had to be a way forward didn't there? Or was he simply a kite blowing in the wind, only swaying to and fro...? It was his sisters voice that had awoken the ginger man; He'd fallen asleep in the greenhouse again, his lantern crooning over a batch of newly potted Aloe Vera he hoped to store away in the warth of the greenhouse's shelter. Raising his head, he looked outside the fogged glass, seeing the distorted image of his only full sibling. An important matter? Gollly, it sounded all a bit too serious for Tilney in his current state of awareness. Giving a great yawn the physician raised himself from the greenhouse floor and tottled out,mane a mess over his antlers, cloak and collar fallen astray to the right side of his body rather than laying directly over his rump. "Sister" the unicorn yawned once again, eyes gleaming. He was glad to see her, but what was this urgent matter? Upon further inspection of her countenance he noticed just how concerned she appeared. Being her brother, he could only tease her furled brow. "Wake up on the wrong side of the meadow did you Dear?" Tilney giggled, tilting his cranium and knocking his antlers against hers. "You look mighty cross, what's wrong?" |
