for @Ira, set for tomorrow
@Evergreen is sleeping in, having exhausted himself the day before by fishing all day, long after Winterbourne had decided he'd had enough. He'd stuck around to watch, of course, and talk to him in the moments between — but he can only stand being wet for so long. The consequence is the absence of his mate on what strikes him as a rather perfect morning. He's restless and a little saddened by it, but unwilling to wake his husband, so he sets off from their (recently reclaimed) shared den in search of a packmate.It feels nice to be back at the river, and he finds himself in a slightly better mood as he walks through the territory. It still hasn't quite sunk in, just as the first move had taken awhile to truly register for him, but that makes it better in this case. Every morning is a pleasant little surprise, waking up beside his mate in the spot they've shared together since Kaistleoki's fledgling days. And days like today, when he can enjoy a quiet stroll by the river, are especially nice. He wishes Evergreen was awake to share it with him, but for now he's content with the possibility of other company.
Winterbourne's voice is low and raspy due to a throat injury during his childhood, and it can sometimes be difficult to understand him.
