"This sucks" Jordan says "Layne's about to EXPLODE"

"A year AND a day, Jordan, day after yule for our saining" Tiara says

The two centaurs keep trotting along, "Besides" Tiara points out "I thought you were trying to be less negative... you know, before Dame Dagmar or Gerd murdered you in your sleep?"

"Dagmar wouldn' wait for sleep" He counters "And this IS me tying. I can't can't even go into the Dreaming with Olgar to get yule stuff yet."

"I troubles me too" She assures

"Oh please, you know so much more about yourself. Knight. Ally to Gwydion. Memories.." Jordan holds up his hands "Once they sain you you'll probably know it all"

Tiara resists the urge to kick him

"I assure you, 'my rembrance' aside, I would like to walk the trods freely, to know my FULL self, as much as you do, but complaining isn't productive" She says

"It's Layne I worry about" He says, annd there's truth to that "She says she cann't be a TRUE Shadowhoof until she gets sained. I told her Connor would probably recruit a pickle in a cape, but for some reason she took no comfort in that."

"You're the big brother figure no one ever wanted" Tiara nods

"That's me" Dryly but he acceptts it
