Bring me that horizon. A voice in the distance froze his form mid stride. His name echoed throughout the orchard several times, amplifying until it was discernible. It was sorrowful and the winded, and in a moment of disbelief he stalked on, large paws carrying him west. The audible crunch of snow to his right grew loud enough to cause the beast to pick up his head and lock on to its owner. She was recognizable anywhere - there was no one in the world like Simber. “Simber!” Immense form swung round his grounded hindlimb, and then his bodice slinked to a full out sprint. They met within seconds, an inner fire stoked within him. He reared and leapt around her like he was a welp, playfully bowing and spiraling inward until he met her shoulders in a bear hug fashion. He dismounted shortly after as to not throw his tripod friend off balance and simply buried his skull into her chest, a grin transpiring ear to ear, his singular pinna laid flat agains his skull. “You’re alright, you’re safe. I found you..oh, how did it happen?” He chimed handsomely, rising before her once more to allow his gaze to settle into her own. What were the odds? It was a moment of splendor, the kind that rendered hurt void, and allowed a platonic love to blossom once more. He had so much to tell her, and he was sure she felt the same. It had been some time since the two had seen each other, and at this point, she was the only friend he still had. She had no knowledge of the events that plagued Resia, but she could come to find out. |
