Time Line W/Moon+Rodeo

[ShadowStarFang]

(we can skip to when he is better? Then it'll be more of a jump and we can say that Murina and Mitchell had a development in their relationship, ie she is more relaxed around him now and her job, and Timothy runs around the whole place? I'm assuming it'll be a week or two. We can't forget the seasons either here. xD)

(Sounds good so Timothy and Mary can run around the place and whatever and since it's two weeks or so do you want to say it's moving into fall/winter?)

[ShadowStarFang]

(I'd say let them have another few days of summer and fade into colder weather. do you want to start or want me to?)

[Pool of the Moon]

(Ok sounds good and could you?)

[ShadowStarFang]

(yeah! Setting: Timothy and Mary running around by the stables I assume? and Murina doing laundry outside I suppose)

Murina took down a long sheet, folding it and putting it into a woven basket with the other folded sheets that would be put back onto the beds. Once placed, she went to a different basket and took out a just washed cloth and threw it up on the rope line to dry, balancing the sheet so it wouldn't fall down from the wind. She went to the next, doing the same thing.

Timothy smiled and petted one of the horses, keeping an eye out for his friend. He didn't want to be tagged. Besides, he was happy to pet the horse as it stood in the pasture.

Mitchell paused seeing Murina and walked over "Hello" he said softly glanced back at his group going in for lunch "How have your chores been? Not too bad I hope" he said looking around

Mary giggled spotting him and hurried out towards him "Timothy!"

Murina had taken down another sheet, folded it and put it away, then had picked up another. As she turned to face Mitchell, he spoke up with his hello, making her jump a bit. She moved back, a bit alarmed and ready to fight and defend herself. Seeing it was only Mitchell after a second's hesitation, she took a deep breath.
"Sorry, you scared me.." She muttered off to herself and smiled to the ground, leaving her brown eyes facing to the grass below her. She looked up at him and smiled to him and continued on to answer his other questions. "Haha... I suppose? Manageable. I'm very limited though still... I'm usually watched by an older and longer working maid, but... none have been watching me today." She shrugged to him and put up the sheet, once again making sure it was level as she asked "How has training gone with you?"

Timothy looked back at hearing his name and smiled, running off away from her down the pasture fence, the horse spooking away to the middle of the field with it's other companions. He wasn't running very fast, still weakened from the sickness, but getting stronger again day by day.

Mitchell put his hands up as she jumped a little "I'm sorry I didn't mean to startle you" he chuckled and smiled at her gently "Well I suppose they are beginning to trust you if raven or omen of the others are not watching over you" he said watching her and then sighed seeing his group coming back out "I should go get my rations would you like me to get yours for you as well?"

Mary squealed and ran after him laughing doing her best not to stumble over her dress as she finally caught up to him tackling him "Your it!"

[ShadowStarFang]

(oof sorry for not replying! So, college is beating me up again haha)

Murina nodded to him. "Please grab Timothy's." She confirmed him, not concerned about her ration's, as Timothy was who she was taking care of. He was her focus, she held the sheet to her front, tucked to the bottom of her ribs as she watched Mitchell go off and the kids running around. Was she getting too comfortable here at the castle? Raised to despise these people, avoid them, and yet, here she stood for a promise?
Slowly resuming her job, she removed the sheet from being pressed against her torso taking her time unwadding it as she heard a voice behind her. A pair of maids were walking out to collect some of the clean the baskets that were dry. She could hear their conversation, but acted as if she didn't hear them talk about the guards.

Timothy growled and furrowed his brow. "Hey! No fair! You're faster than I!" He pouted a second until Murina's voice called out to the pair. "Hey guys! Get cleaned up!" She ordered them, as both were covered in who knows what, but mostly Timothy was who she wanted to listen since he was still recovering. The boy sourly stuck his tongue out at Mary and shoved himself up, but soon let go of his grudge of getting tagged as he poked her again and ran laughing to the wash area.

[Pool of the Moon]

(It's ok! No worries!)

Mitchell frowned a little bit and noticed that she seemed different lately but had said nothing about it. He hated to admit it but he was worried about her. Long ago he had promised he would never care for anyone because it would distract him from taking care of his family and working but he had found himself caring for Murina and Timothy. He shook his head and went to go get rations for himself and Murina as well as their siblings. He came back and set down the food "Murina... rest and eat you are working yourself to the bone"

Mary squealed laughing as she ran after him to clean up and giggled "Hurry or I will eat your rations too!" She teased the boy running towards their siblings
