Re: quicklog: eddie/steph in Wonder City
[Stephanie followed behind Eddie slowly, securely yet gently holding the golden messy dog in her arms. Her arm moved up and down the matted fur, and every whimper broke her heart a little more. But something clicked into place when that dog was in her arms. She felt a little less tired. Her heart swelled a little bigger. Her shoulders felt a little lighter. Yeah. She knew they just found an addition to the farm, too.]
Wait, does that mean you and me can't take a bath together either? [She smirked, carrying the dog into the flat and towards the bath as Eddie prepared it. Before he stepped away, however, she stepped in front of her husband.] Hey. [Tugging off her shroud so it'd hang around her neck, she tilted her chin until he obliged her with a kiss. She wibbled a smile before looking down at the puppy, slowly lowering the shivering, whimpering thing into the water once it was warm. When Eddie returned with the soap, she took palmfuls of water and dripped it over the doggie delicately. She focused on the animal with that pinpoint sort of drive that he saw when she was with patients. Delicate, yet caring. Precise and loving. A soft smile she didn't even realize was there crawled up the side of her mouth. Maybe she was especially sensitive to things like this now that there probably would be no baby of their own. That wound was still raw, after all. But the way she tended to the dog made it clear that despite all her fears, she would be a good mom.]
