The larger set of makeup that was for Zelda joined the jewelry boxes. He set his own aside. Sigh. He wouldn't even mind having that so much if not for the fact that part of the reason he was bothering with it was to keep leading that guy- what was his name? Bozai? -around the desert by a leash tied to his dick.
"At the risk of taking some of the shine off that gift, she was already on her way here anyway," he said. "She's a former stablehand from Serenne Stable, worked there when I'd stopped to rest for a few days, not long before I bought this place. She's one of those people who are charming in both good and bad ways, which at least made for entertaining conversation to distract me from the urge to get back up and hit the road before I was actually rested. She left the stable when I did to run off with her new girlfriend."
He pulled out the Silent Princess hair clip, keeping it palmed from sight while he set the shopping bag aside.
"I ran into them the other night when I was out all night, they were at the Woodland Stable. Turns out, at some point, she found herself a donor and they were looking for a place where there'd be a midwife on hand. I told them to come here, I knew Hateno had to have someone."
He gave her a rueful smile and a shrug. "So like I said, that gift's probably not as shiny as if I'd convinced her to come here just for you. But you've got help incoming."
