Rowan sighed softly. "I don't want to just let this go, Matthew. This isn't okay."
Rowan sighed softly. "I don't want to just let this go, Matthew. This isn't okay."
"I… W-we could spread the word, let everyone know what they did…" Matthew shook his head some in disbelief.
"Yeah, I guess…" Rowan sighed softly. "I just… they hurt my babies. I can't just let that slide."
"I can't either," Matthew said softly. "We'll… we'll figure something out."
Rowan nodded a bit and pushed open the door of the hotel, where he tiredly greeted his mother. He then set the chicks in their nest and curled up on the bed.
The chicks all curled up together, still obviously upset by what had happened. Matthew offered a small greeting as well, curling up on the bed next to Rowan.
Rowan huddled up with Matthew, a few tears rolling down his pale cheeks. Eventually, he managed to drift off to sleep.
Matthew wrapped his arms securely around Rowan, soon drifting off himself. There had just been too much stress.
Rowan was still dead asleep in the morning when Matthew woke up, completely exhausted from the previous day's activities.
Matthew looked down at Rowan a moment, running his fingers through the man's hair once. Everything was just so… strange for Matthew at the moment.
Rowan leaned into Matthew's hand a bit when he was pet, relaxing into his gentle touch. "Mmmm…"
Matthew managed a weak smile at the reaction Rowan had to Matthew's touch. He played with the man's hair a bit, closing his eyes some.
Rowan stirred after a bit and looked up at Matthew sleepily. "Mmm… g'mornin… how are the chicks?" He asked.
"Morning…" Matthew sat up a bit to look at them.
"They're still asleep," he said softly.
"Good… they had an eventful day yesterday. Maybe we can take them out so we can all have a relaxing day today?"
"Yeah, that might be nice… We all need a break." Matthew offered a small smile.
"Mhmm…" Rowan yawned a bit and slipped out of bed. "Where should we go?" He asked.
(Snake time?)
(oh shoot I forgot what we were going with the snake)
Matthew sat up, stretching some.
"Mm… I don't know. Anywhere you want to check out?"
(Lol)
"Well, I've been stuck in a city all my life, so maybe we can go somewhere nice and natural?" Rowan shrugged a bit.
"Mm… so basically, anywhere within a couple miles?" Matthew chuckled a bit.
"Here, we'll go to one of the gardens, then!"
"Sounds good to me." Rowan smiled weakly. "I should probably get changed, shouldn't I?"
"Yeah… I'll get the chicks up." Matthew offered a smile, grabbing his own robe to change in to and laying out Rowan's.
"Alrighty." Rowan quickly changed and then waited by the door for Matthew and the chicks.
Matthew carefully woke all the chicks up.
"We're gonna go out today, sweeties," he said softly. "All of us together, okay?" He carried the nest over with him to Rowan's side.
Rowan gently pet the birds once they were in his reach. "Won't that be fun? We'll all be out together. Just us."
