Welcome to Gaia! ::

The doe moved slowly as she tried desperately to remember what she'd heard. She'd never had problems remembering before -- a lapse in judgement or a change of mind was entirely different -- but now it seemed everything fell out of her head in a minute. She remembered his name, Wildflower Breeze, and really at the moment that was about it. It was hard to believe she'd spent a quiet night seeking out information about any kind Legendary that would bless her -- well the children she was going to have.

At least she'd brought a flower as a gift. That was good, wasn't it? If he liked flowers. Oh, Motherfather, help her. This was such a terrible idea. And if the moon had been ruling her head, she might have stood there for an eternity to think it over, but as the sun was hefted high she was going to find him. What was the worst he could do? Call her an idiot and walk away? And that'd only make her mad. She was such a hot-head during daylight.

Her mouth tightened as she hurried her pace, to make sure the flower (well flowers -- she'd grabbed two) would not be dropped and lost. She wondered if the type of flower made a difference. Someone had tried telling her they had meanings and then pointed their nose at two particular flowers, one meant to symbol graciousness and another meant to signal sincerity. She hoped that was all right.

But first she had to find him. And hoped he liked flowers at all. Before her children left her body. (At this rate, she thought the last bit was the most important.)

To her it almost seemed like the buck appeared from nowhere. Perhaps he had. And because she could feel at least one warm ray of sunlight on her, she thought, it's about damn time. The annoyance was quickly doused, a little by the fear that he might be able to read her mind (who knew what a Legendary could do) and yet much more by the fact that it was him. A Legendary.

The reaction to bow her own head in return was automatic, even though by now she felt a trembling mess. She should say something. The stems clutched in her mouth made it extra difficult, for one her mind was completely blank and for two she did not want to drop them. Except if she did not say something, he might leave.

"I'm going to be a mother," was the muffled, abrupt announcement. ...what possessed me to think this was a good idea? she wondered to herself, wide-eyed at her own actions.

The doe nodded her head, quite eagerly, at the latter part. Yes that was what she wanted exactly. She felt herself relax some; the mere fact he knew what she wanted and would bless her set her at ease. As much as a first time mother standing in front of a Legendary could be, anyway.

"Yes, please," she voiced softly. And then remembering her gift she placed the flowers on the ground, "A gift for you," she explained. She blew out a breath; this was nerve-wracking. There was no way she'd be in a rush to do this again!

Whether it was the words or who said them, she once more felt herself relax. Only this time it seemed to stick. "Thank you, so much," she replied. There didn't seem much more to say than that; he liked the flowers it appeared and had told her what she so desperately needed to hear.

She felt rather exhausted from all the nervousness that had coursed through her and with a nod towards the buck, she headed towards a nearby spot of shade to rest. It was all rather tiring.
