"And all prosper?"

Fresh new buds have sprung to life here since last Dru visited! A fountain bubbles still.

She touches the blooms, greeting them like old friends.

"We hold" She says "But a friend of mine worked spring magic here to help another. This is the result." She is tempted, VERY tempted o ask the Kubera if she could bless Aiden but how to word it? And is i too soon? Most likley

"This hold is a place for flowers...."

"Horses, dogs, and birds of prey. Silverwolf is... it may seem sinister to some but life is born here "

"Oh yes, the foal!"

"Joker" She says pleased "foaled on the very night of Carnival.. want to visit him too? "

She claps. "Yes please!"

"I was wondering if you had advice for the gardens, growing flowers there and such, but ... Joker IS so adorable" She leads her on "And troublesome. Careful, he likes to tug on sleeves. I think he likes to pretend he's a goat"

"Oh, I can help with the flowers."

A soft chuckle "Knowing he who I -" She catches herself, she almost said love out loud. Damn Beltaine influence no doubt "the Baron would no doubt love your blessings on our efforts to breed strong fae blood in the horses as a focus, but I do think some flowers would be ..well, wonderful too mmm? " Sure enouh, Joker trots up bold as brass to greet them

"Hello, lovely!" She extends her hands to the horse.

Joker takes a sniff.. searching for apple slices, sugar cubes... overly long sleeves

There ARE leaves twined around her arms.

And he nibbles at them

"Joker, no" Nadeen says

Dru laughs at that, too. "Oh, you think I am food!"

"I am not an apple tree, I am an oak."

Sure enough, Joker desists, then allows her to pet him as if he never tried to devour her

"Shameless" Nadeen says almost embarrassed on behalf of Silverwolf

She is skilled at finding the itchy spots to scritch.

"He is a young thing. Young things have no shame."

"I suppose less need for it too" She smirks as the once troubleesome horse melts a bit under the Kubera's touch

"You will be fleet and strong!"

the sidhe's eyes widen ..she knows the stories. She kens.

Joker, less concerned with Varich lore of old being used, spins under the touch happily, and digs his hooves into the ground playfully

Perhaps. Or perhaps simply a phrase.

"Very kind for that blessing" She says regardless

"New life is a blessing."

"It is... I am a daughter of Winter, but each season has it's place, no?"

Joker prances about, now showing off a bit

"There is still life in winter."

"Oh yes, and it is cunning all the more for the cold" She agrees

A bark, and a great dog bounds towards them

"Psychka... hello" She turns to her dog and pets her

"Hello. I am not for peeing."

"Oh well she's a girl but yes.. I understand THAT. " Nadeen says. "Pyshka, shake hands with Dru"

The VERY good girl offers a paw

A head tilt, and Dru mimics the gesture.

Nadeen chuckles and demonstrates "Like a handshake"

"Ah!"

"Yes, the flesh-squeezing!"

"There is also, I have observed, flesh... tapping?"

"Fist bump? One person's fist bumps aggainst the other?"

"Yes! The tap! Does Pyschka know this?"

"I don't think her paws work well with it, but she does how to bow" She looks at her dog "Curtsey"

"I know that one! I learned that before, the last time I was awake."

And the dog playbows, rump up, fron paws and head down

Nadeen rewards her dog with a pet "Pyschka is my joy" She admits
