Description
music : Almost Idyllic - sleeping at last
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The day was still very warm despite the sun's highest hours being long passed. As the stallion walked through the orchard, he welcomed the shaded offered by its numerous trees. Was it just him or were they less of them now? He couldn't really remember. Served him right for not coming around more often. But one thing was certain and easy to notice. Most of them haven't been picked up clean, except for a few left over fruits that was either too high up or not ripe yet. How the owner had managed to clean everything so good was a mystery.
As he pushed through the rows of trees, he finally caught sight of said owner and let a smile come to his lips. Well, the question wouldn't have lasted long.
There she was, Rominn, laying down in the shade of one tree still bearing its fruits. From what he could see, this one was a late bloomer. Or... Ripper ? He never really knew the proper terms for these things.
"Well well, look who decided to get his rump back on these lands after most of the work have already been done !" exclaimed the mare with a laughing smile.
"Do you really want me to help you out with anything ? I thought last season was enough of a proof for you to avoid me doing anything at all cost regarding your trees."
"I still managed to sell off the harvest you almost destroyed last time."
"You did ?"
"Yes. As lantern oil."
Jamie blinked, slowly. Until the amused expression on Rominn's face confirmed his doubts.
"The day you can turn cider into lamp oil, you'll certainly be recognized as the most creative scientist in the world. Or as a basic witch."
"I'll take the basic witch, thank you very much." taunted the mare. "I wasn't expecting you before another week at least."
"My plans changed a little. I was around so I thought why not come over for a bit."
"And enjoy free lodging, food and drinks while you're at it, right ?"
"I'm not that much of a jerk. I'm just being careful. Can't do anything or go anywhere if I break something. Poor you, you would end up having to care for me for all my convalescence !"
"My trees always need new fertilizers..." responded Rominn thoughtfully. "I can just ask my brother to help out with the heavy lifting."
Jamie laughed again and shook his head. Although he noticed the ring around his friend's waist.
" Can't your brother help you out with that type of heavy lifting ?" he asked, concerned.
The mare lifted an eyebrow before turning to have a look at herself.
"It's just matted fur. Nothing a bath and some brushing can't get rid of."
"Then let's head there right now. I need some dusting from the roads anyway." asked the striped stallion, extending his hand.
Rominn looked in surprise for a moment, the usual feeling of warmth growing from her chest to the rest of her body, before her smile came back.
"My my my... Look who's finally learned some proper manners. Have you been to the big city lately to learn some etiquette ?" she taunted in return.
But still, she accepted the help standing up. She had originally planned to just stay there for a long hour of resting at least but... Who knew when Jamie would be around next ?
