    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    It’s not too wordy their travels, just as well. Fart was still getting comfortable with the whole conversation thing, especially the whole conversation with ladies thing. Seraphina was nice though and not especially difficult to talk to when it came right down to it. Mostly it was just the roan’s own insecurities that gave him a hard time about holding together the exchanging of words. Sometimes he thought too hard on the topic, other times too little and even still he took things too literally and ended up kicking himself down a notch each time. This though, this wasn’t too bad and when he finally did stop she did the same, even if a bit distracted but he couldn’t hold that against her. Especially given the bouts of silence in between the walking, she had to do something to occupy her thoughts right?

    The air is nice here, cool and calm and it even does something to dissipate the acrid smell that lingered against his limey coat. That was probably the selling point, even for Fart. Would that he could have found a nice field of potent wildflowers for them all to stay in but that wasn’t practical or safe really. It would be a nice thing to have of course but would likely not provide needed shelter and then it also wouldn't guarantee a source of water so really it was out. Who’s to say the woods wasn’t hiding a nice little spot of flowers, a clearing with a meadow and all that jazz, There was still much of the unclaimed land that Fart had not explored, partially because he wasn’t sure of the wildlife and he wasn’t dense enough to go wandering into a den unassisted.

    It’s nice, she says and he is glad to hear it, especially the part where she liked trees best. He couldn’t help but be a little proud of himself, nodding as she lets that be known. “I am happy you like it, even happier you like the trees so much. I think they are nice too,” He would have said ‘and they help with the smell’ but he didn’t, he was trying so hard to be positive.

    Then she goes on to say how she will protect this land and if Fart was a woman his heart would have melted right out of his chest, maybe deep down he was sort of sappy like that, woman or not. “You will?” he asks a bit surprised and confused. “Oh Seraphina I’m so happy you will but don’t worry you don’t have to do all that, I think, isn’t it better if we work together?” He didn’t want her to think him incapable, even if he wasn’t so sure about his own abilities, even if they had not been truly tested in these lands. Given enough time, enough encouragement he might be able to do just that, to protect them and their home, he would have to try. “We can, we can protect it and those that need somewhere to go. It’s nothing fancy, there’s no glory or titles to be had here but it will be ours, it will be our own. That’s something to take pride in right?”

    Maybe he leaned on her too much, maybe on himself too little but he liked Seraphina and he liked this place. Hopefully they would both like it enough to stay.
