"It's not like I've got anything else to do." Rowan shrugged. "We'll be travelling for a while longer."
"It's not like I've got anything else to do." Rowan shrugged. "We'll be travelling for a while longer."
"Well… who lit all the lights on the signs?" Matthew asked. "And the colors were strange, especially since your world doesn't have magic."
"Ah, that's just the electricity… we've got LED lights and stuff that are colored, and with electricity, they can light up."
"A-Ah, okay…" Matthew was more confused by the answer than his own original question, chuckling weakly.
"Mm… I'm not really sure how to explain it." Rowan laughed a bit. "Electricity is sort of like a facet of science that's… kinda like magic, but natural, I dunno."
"Aa, I get electricity!" Matthew assured quickly. "My friend can use it. I just never thought it could be used that way in particular."
Rowan smiled softly and nodded. "Yeah, we use it for a lot of stuff since we don't have any magic on earth."
"Mm… my friend mostly just uses it to set things on fire," Matthew said, chuckling softly.
"I guess that's fair. I'm not entirely sure how we harness electricity since it isn't really my job to know, but… we do."
"Mm, okay! I can't expect you to know everything about your world, seeing as I'm sure there are things about this one you could ask that I don't know the answer to." Matthew offered a small smile, kissing Rowan's cheek.
Rowan nodded again, humming softly. "Right… did you have any other questions?"
"I think that's everything," Matthew said, smiling.
"Do you have any?"
"Not at the moment, no… let me know if there's anything else you wanna know." Rowan smiled softly up at Matthew.
"Okay! I'll be sure to!" Matthew smiled back, moving to kiss Rowan's cheek. Tammy giggled some at that, legs swinging.
Rowan returned the kiss and hummed happily, looking down at the chicks. "You three doing alright?" He asked.
Tammy nodded her head, looking up at Rowan. She help her brothers with her arms as they hitched a ride in Rowan's hands.
"Daddy!"
Rowan smiled gently, adjusting his hands to accommodate the chicks. "When are we going to take a break next?" He asked.
"Well, if we keep going without a break today, we should get close enough to call the horses by sun fall…" Matthew sighed some.
"I think we should take a break in the next half hour, though."
Rowan nodded a bit, already a little winded from walking. "Yeah… sounds good to me. Just let me know when to stop."
Matthew nodded, continuing on for a bit.
"Now's a good place to stop," he eventually offered, looking down at Rowan.
"Alright…" Rowan sat down on a nearby rock at that and sighed heavily, taking a few deep breaths as he looked around.
Matthew sat down with Rowan, offering an arm for a hug.
Rowan leaned into Matthew and closed his eyes, relaxing a bit into his touch.
Matthew ran his fingers through Rowan's hair, humming softly.
"I love you," he said softly.
"I-I love you too…" Rowan replied, his face very flushed. "When should we get going again?"
