How about something with a green field and a pleasant creek on a cool day? Maybe there's some intrigue, or maybe it's just some nice fuzzy soft time between some nice people

Day broke through the surface of the water was a gasp, blinded by their drenched bangs and droplets in their eyes. They sputtered for a moment, catching their breath as the register a sound coming from a few feet away.

Muffled laughter. Jubilee. Traitor.

Sitting up, they push the bangs from their face- they ought to get their hair touched up, it had outgrown it’s under cut long ago, they were starting to resemble Cousin It from The Addams Family- and made a show at rolling their eyes at her. It was just their luck they would appear face down and nearly drown in a creek that was barely knee deep, while Jubilee landed on the nice grassy edge.

They pointedly ignored her hand up and plopped on the grass next to her. “So, we just wag off until nightfall?”

“Looks like it,” Chuckling, Jubilee moved the package the two where supposed to deliver- thankfully dry, as she was the one carrying it- away from Day’s spray as they intentionally shook the water from their head in her direction. Day shrugged off the ridiculous overcoat their new peers and coworkers had come to strongly associate with them, and laid it out to dry. Might as well get comfortable. The two had a short hike ahead of them, a little under an hour, and half a day to make it.

They had to deliver a package to some nixies for Madam Lovelace. However, they couldn’t portal directly into the nixie territory, this being as close as they could get. Instead, they would go to the lake this creek trickled away from, and wait for the moonlight to hit the water just right and open a passage. The nixies, not wanting anyone to wander around their home, would come to them along it.

Day didn’t bother raising any eyebrows anymore. Complicated deliveries were better than noting creatures and tracking down anomalies that caught Madam Lovelace’s interest.

It was a nice day. A nice area as well- babbling creek, wildflowers growing along the edge, birdsong drifting down from the trees. Though they had visited places like this before, it almost felt unreal to them in it’s beauty.

Or maintained.

“Reminds me of when I used to visit my grandmother in Wales as a kid. She had a farm with a river like this, and we would have picnics there all the time,” Day said, more to themself.

Jubilee hummed, leaning back on her hands and tilting her head to the sky. Day smiled at her.

“Yeah. This really has an air of childhood nostalgia. Somebody must have loved this place,” she said.

Day nodded. There was a powerful yet fragile magic in a child’s love. It was an old magic, a magic that could easily die if unattended to. It was almost sad, how areas like this could just fall apart.

“Someone must have loved it here, once, and the nixies have taken root here because of it,” she went on. “Or something like that, at least. Maybe if we’re lucky, Rain will know something about it.”

Rain had become Day’s go-to for information and histories they couldn’t learn from Jubilee or Madam Lovelace, and while he didn’t always have the answers, he was good at finding something for them.

“Wish he was here. And Rory and his girls- they’s love it. Be a great place for a picnic,” they said, leaning back with Jubilee.

“It really is, yeah.” She had a smile on her face that took Day’s breath away- it was different from her small smirk. It was still small, yet it showed more contentment that amusement.

It was a really nice day.

“What happened with your grandmother’s farm, by the way?”

“Ah, when my parents divorced, my pop and I ended up visiting less often- he only had me every other week, we didn’t have much time to,” They shrugged. “And I was a moody teen, so I never really got out much when we did go. Eventually, ol’ gran Bran had to retire and sold the thing.”

It’s been a while since Day had visited Wales just to visit, they realized. They really should do that soon- visit their grandmother’s grave, see if the farm’s still there, spend time with their father. Maybe they could even bring Jubilee and Rain. It would be nice.

“We should head out soon,” Jubilee said, interrupting their fancying. “I’d like to try skipping stones, and you could tell me more about granma Laundrie on the way there.”

Day rolled their eyes again at the nickname. Sometimes, they couldn’t tell if their coworkers knew “Laundrie Day” wasn’t actually their name.

They got up- their clothes and overcoat were still damp, but there wasn’t much to do about it. “Lets go. I bet all the stones you drop will sink.”

Jubilee smirked at that. “Right, because you’re so graceful where water is concerned.”

Day had every intention of pushing her in the lake when they got there.

🚴2022 Charity Cycling Challenge🚴‍♀️ This year we are cycling for two charities.. The first charity is Heart of Scotland appeal..the second charity is (Macmillan Nurses Dumfries and Galloway my next post).. My decision to cycle for Heart of Scotland appeal.. Katherine lives locally and kindly aloud me to post this... Hello, I’m Katherine McIsaac and on the 3rd February 2021, in the middle of the covid pandemic, I had open heart surgery at the Golden Jubilee hospital in Glasgow, to fix a congenital heart defect. I am now the recipient of a mechanical aortic valve and I’m ticking along nicely. According to research by Heart Disease UK, 47 people die in Scotland every day from heart disease. This figure will rise due to delays and lack of appropriate cardiac care during the last two years of the pandemic. It is vital that research into heart disease continues, particularly congenital defects which affect children and adults. I found out I had a bicuspid aortic valve when I was 48 years old. I became increasingly tired, short of breath and dizzy. In the year before my operation I couldn’t walk around my house or have a conversation without feeling breathless. My surgery was timely. My wonderful surgeon, Professor Al Attar from the Jubilee, told me afterwards that my valve was so bad I may not have seen the year out. From the onset of symptoms of valve disease, the average life expectancy is only two years. My recovery has been slow and steady but the good news is that I have an amazing second chance at life and I’m aiming to take part in this wonderful cycling challenge that Ian Baird is organising. I wouldn’t have been able to consider it before. My plan is to cycle as many miles as I can to help support this worthy cause and raise funds for the Heart of Scotland appeal. Without the advances in cardiac care, that happen because of appropriate funding, people with heart defects wouldn’t get that second chance. I’d like to thank everyone in advance, from the bottom of my heart, for any donations that you’d like to make. It’s hugely appreciated. Thank you ❤️ https://gofund.me/e3acc80d (at United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CapqCLdopeq/?utm_medium=tumblr
