Aelfwine was the first to find him, the bronze stag giving a wide (but nervous) grin towards his youngest sister. Clunking his antlers against her own momentarily, the ginger strode forth with a rather impressive sigh escaping his maw. "I am excited, yes" He spoke, but of course, soon came the "but..."
"I just don't want her to ever grow up Aelf" The doctor spoke this with a sadness, a heaviness to his words, though also a great amount of hope. The woman she was becoming was one he was remarkably proud of, not only because of how beautiful her mind and soul was, but because of how much love she mirrored towards any she met be it a creature big or small. Maude lacked the fierceness of her mother, though her heart was just as strong. Additionally, she was exceptionally beautiful - perhaps Tilney's greatest worry was this. His troublesome thoughts soon dispersed upon his elder brother's arrival, the splashed stag emerging from the scrub smelling of sea salt and fermented apples. It caused Tilney to scrunch his nose ones or twice, though eventually he stepped forth and clunked his antlers harshly against the battered crown of Bartholomeo. There was something chipping at his brother, something masked well by a sheet of cheer and revelling - Tilney could feel it, he could hear it, and it caused the flaxen father to frown. The whispers he heard escaping from Bartholomeos mind panicked him, though he managed to contain it within a few deep breaths and a nod, reminding himself that today was about Maude. He made a note to talk to Bart at a later date, though really he just wished to apologise right then and there... and ask what an earth Bartholomeo was doing here, putting himself through a different child's birthday. His sombre thoughts were interrupted by Barts cheer, unveiling a beautifully carved tallisman made for Maude. Tilneys eyes came alight, tears threatening in the very corners of his eyes. The others might think him crazy (he was certain only Arah knew of his newly found mind-reading abilities), but it became overwhelmingly obvious when Tilney was overwhelmed by the thoughts he heard. Now this? "Oh, Bart!" He cheered "What a wonderful gift. She will love that" was all he managed to splutter. Upon Arah's approach, Tilney sighed with relief. He crossed the earth to stand by her, briefly nestling his head into the curve of her neck before he turned over his forelegs to face his siblings. To answer Arah's question, he just gaze a short-lived smile and a nod. No, he wasn't ready. A familiar, blackened face soon joined the group. He colt caused Tilney to frown at first, but he instead settled for saying nothing. It was thoughtful of the prince to bring her a gift, but leg wraps? What was dear maude going to need those for? He hoped master Zubari wasn't intending on teaching his Maude how to fight, or anything along those lines. "How... kind" Tilney muttered through stiff lips. He wished to shoo the child, but it was with a glance to Arah that he decided he should welcome such kindness towards his daughter. "She will be very greatful Zubari" @Maude np dressy!! <3 tilneys like omg fool back off hahahah
