Tales of the Tall Ones youthful times.
New Chapter: Bo
One of these days, Sharrevaliir and his heart-brother would remember that an adult pegasus was not, actually, the best minder for a half-human child.
Boesild was only just hitting the gangly growth spurt that would likely have him towering over his father in due time.
The colt with him and Sharr's own pegasus, was just as gangly, nowhere near the more solid lines of a pegasus who had the right to choose to be away from their dam.
He wasn't being given a chance to disapprove, though, as Meryvin was nickering encouragingly, and Bo had the solid set of jaw and shoulders that said he was going to defend his actions.
"Where's the dam?" Sharr asked, choosing the less confrontational road.
"He doesn't have one any more," Bo told his father. "The herd was taking care of him." Meryvin tossed his head in agreement, and Sharr softened a bit. "Alright. But don't be surprised if Methri is a little odd; you're younger than he is, and he hasn't even gone to see if he can make a friend."
"I know. And I will not be a pest to him over it," Bo promised.
"Alright, let's go see if Mama has grains to be used for mashes, since he's so young." Sharr smiled at his son, and laid a hand on his shoulder as they went to do that, leaving the colt with Meryvin for now.
It was Korvallen in the kitchen when he heard a very suspicious sound in the main room of the family home. He had been apprised of Bo befriending a colt. He'd even decided that it was just as inevitable as Sharr fathering more children than Corellon Himself. What he did not expect was to step back into the room to see Bo coaxing the colt through the door.
"Bo." He kept his voice low, using the avuncular tone that he had so much practice with thanks to Elué and Charic both.
"Uncle?"
"Pegasi do not sleep in trees. Not even tree homes."
"But he might get scared without me!"
Kor met the boy's eyes from across the span of the room before answering. "Then you have to sleep where he sleeps, not the other way around."
Bo considered. Technically, if they remained directly under the tree's branches, he was allowed to be on the ground, and Meryvin would be with them.
"Yes, uncle."
Kor returned to his work in the kitchen, and only glanced back in when he heard Methri helping move something — a thing that turned out to be Bo's mattress. He smiled to himself and decided Sharr's boys were a law unto themselves, as always.
