(Having spent a good majority of the previous night secretly showing his son how to breath fire, the Laird of the keep was finding it hard to keep his eyes open as he leaned on the pasture gate. His hand slipped off and when he jerked to right his balance his hand hit electric fence and his eyes flew wide.) Bluidy fecking whoreson.. (He spat out the words as he shook his hand, walking along the fenceline. He narrowed his gaze a little as he heard laughing and looked over to where Thomas, his groundskeeper, coughed and looked back at the hoof of the horse he was grooming. The other man's chest shook with suppressed laughter and soon a chuckle escaped Dane's chest as well.) A'right then, get it out of yer system. (He said with a half cocked smile on his handsome face. The pair of them has spent the morning in town and the piebald gelding Thomas had been riding had thrown a shoe on the way back. It had been rather nice standing there and listening to the soft sound of man talking to horse and watching his own horse graze. It was peaceful.. quiet.. boring. He shook his head a little, rubbing his forehead as Thomas asked him how the whelps were. A smile crossed his features then, and he felt the sudden urge to return to his family.) Amazing, Thomas. My Jasha has found his fire.. and at such a young age. I shall have to start wi' the flying lessons soon. (He knew Bree thought them too young, but they were apt to kill one another soon. Their play was becoming more and more fierce as they grew, and he knew it was time to teach them some manners. He cleared his throat and bid Thomas farewell for a time and headed back into the keep. He barely made it three feet into the 'playroom' when he was covered in bairns and happier than he had been all day. He said his hellos to the boys, then went to his wee Aubrey. He knelt and picked her up as she serenely offered herself for affection.) Och, my wee bonnie lassie.. (He murmured to her, crooning as she clutched at his collar and purred just like her mam. He was a fearsome and powerful Laird, leader of his domain, and completely and utterly defenseless when it came to the eighteen pound whelp in his arms. There was a crash and he winced, shaking his head as he climbed the stairs.) Watch the vases, lads.. they were yer granddas. (He stepped onto the landing and crossed to where his mate lay with their eldest son. He smiled.) Now there's a good lad, watchin his mam.. (He said and smirked as Jasha preened. He lowered himself into a chair beside Bree and lowered Aubrey down onto the ground, watching as she sat between the spindals on the landing to watch over her younger brothers like a ruler. His gaze swung back to Bree and he sighed.) I feel as though yesterday never ended.. have we been awake for a week?
