The Tangle She says the joys of life are lost among the living

can't resist stealing one more <3 hope you don't mind! (Being so very vague initially)

Ashlar needed to go see her again. There was so much that was new at the rise. Avicus was pregnant! His meeting, and talk, with Ratio. Even just thinking of the man brought so many feelings forward. And, of course, their days together in the forest. He couldn't forget them.

He was a little nervous as he made his way across and through towards the tangle. They needed to speak about more than a few things and Ashlar wanted to be honest, but being honest didn't always end well. He would try it anyway and hope the results were what he wished.

She was here! The moment Ashlar spotted her, he crooned out a note of happy surprise and moved, enthusiastically, to greet her. It had only been a week but it felt like longer! They'd had other priorities then, things that had taken the place of words. But now he knew there were things she needed to know, and he wondered if perhaps she had the same.
