It's My Lucky Day
Solveiga was still debating whether to sit or stand when she heard footsteps behind her and she looked around in confusion. Who had followed her? Not Regulus, she hoped. She didn't need to embarrass herself in front of him. Again.
No, it was the woman she had seen at the meeting. The one who had been introduced as Luck. The cream colored girl smiled as she saw the dandelions Luck had brought, and she nodded gratefully at her introduction. "I'm Solveiga, I'm actually a healer too," at this she tried to sway her tail a bit as a friendly gesture, but the movement must have flexed some muscle being jabbed by the thorn because she tensed a bit and had to hold in another whimper. "Sorry, I got caught in some brambles right before the meeting and..." The woman shrugged, the rest was pretty self explanatory. "Actually, I'd really appreciate your help. Thank you."
She tucked her tail shyly as the woman circled her, making her own analysis. Solveiga nodded a bit at the suggestion and went to lay beside the lake, sighing in relief as the cool water helped ease the immediate pain. But she still knew there were thorns in there somewhere. "The thorns are mostly in my paw pads, and there may be a couple in my legs, I'm not sure," she said. "And... one back by my tail..." This she admitted with a good amount of chagrin. At least it was another woman who would be helping her remove that one. The scent of her season was still fading, she would have felt almost guilty if she had asked for the assistance of a male healer. Luckily Celestial didn't have many. Just Falk. |
