Marshmallow Season

To say that the water he drank was refreshing was an understatement, and he would be lying if he did say it. Still, water was water, and with the heat being the way it was, he wasn't too keen on having to travel miles to find a better water source. Not now, anyway. Ears picked up the sound of an approach, and soon after, Faine's voice spoke out. The earthen male lifted his muzzle to look at her, bits of mud and droplets of water clinging to his chin. "There probably is, but I was too thirsty to go looking right now." He frowned slightly, not at her words but at the situation. It was getting harder to find water, and he missed his pond. It was a shame that it wasn't big enough for it to stay for the duration of the season, but hopefully it would return come Auster's winter time. Her suggestion at going out to find other water sources intrigued him. They did need to find a better source other than the dirty puddles he had found, but he was afraid if they kept trying to drink from them then they'd get sick. And with herbs almost hard to find, they'd be in trouble. Granted, they could probably find some in the deeper forests, he had noticed charred ground in some of the further lands, and he would hate himself if someone got caught up in a wildfire because of desperation. "I may have to take you up on that offer. Maybe we could both go and check it out, two pairs of eyes are better than one, and there may have been some places I miss...though when I've gone out, I've had quite the trouble finding an adequate source that wasn't being guarded by other thirsty creatures..." He certainly didn't want someone getting hurt, or worse, trying to compete with the other creatures for water too. The whole situation this season felt heavy on his shoulders, but he was already setting plans in motion to try and remedy it, if only for a little while. Walk, "Talk" Think |
