Applesauce Posted December 4, 2021 Author Share Posted December 4, 2021 Back by the lone tree, Daisy joins Baba at the water's edge. She looks at her own reflection, then at Baba's. It exposition time. 'Back on my native island, I had a mate.' Baba starts. 'Oh?' Daisy says, 'Were they handsome?' 'Yes, he was.' Baba smiled. 'The island was large, and filled with danger. But my tribe learned to live with it, and we found safety in each other.' She paused. 'One day, my mate and me decided to start a family. We had a son. I called him Tarlo.' Daisy looked at Baba. She had never imagined Baba was a mother before they had met, but now that she brought it up Daisy could see the fibers of motherhood all around her friend. 'We loved him very much... He was very young, and for some reason was fascinated with all things that had could fly. One day I was laying by the nest, watching the birds with him. It was sunny and warm. His father was away and I was called on a hunting trip. I was a new mother, and for some reason I thought he was fine, that he would be looked after.' She sniffs, Daisy puts her paw on Baba's large digging paw. 'I just left him there, and when I came back he was gone.' 'I'm so sorry.' Daisy says. 'I was too. My mate was devastated. He didn't want to be around a someone who would leave their child like that, so he found a new mate. Had more kids...' She sighed, feeling a muted pain deep within her that had once been much sharper. 'Some of the tribe members pitied me, some never talked to be again. Family was so important to us, being the thing that kept us safe. So eventually I forgave myself, and figured there was a better life out there for me.' 'And that's when you left.' 'Yes. It was hard, the road to forgiving myself was long. I decided that I wanted better.' Baba spent the rest of the day telling Daisy happier memories of Tarlo and her family, before they grew tired and drifted off to bed. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Applesauce Posted December 23, 2021 Author Share Posted December 23, 2021 In the morning, Nina joins up with Daisy and Baba. She has stalked a rabbil onto a flower port. She bonks it on the head and it disappears into the flowers 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
