The Way I Am (I/X)
Title: If you are Falling Rating: G Length: 139 words Character: Wyldon Summary: Aging is hard, and Wyldon’s in denial. Note: inspired by Ingrid Michaelson’s “The Way I Am”
“I’m going to ask Neal to take a look at your eyes.”
Wyldon looks up at her, annoyance etched on his face. “My eyes are fine.”
“Is this why you hold your letters an arm length away from you when you read?”
“The words blur just a bit.”
“Shall we go out to the yard and practice archery?” she asks, eyebrows raised.
“Don’t do this, Keladry.” He looks defeated.
“Then you should agree to see Neal. Or Duke Baird, if you refuse to accept Neal’s help.”
He sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose with two fingers. “These headaches are getting monstrous. You’re right, you know.”
“So you’ll see Neal?”
“I’ll talk to Duke Baird in the morning.”
She smiles the tiniest bit. “But Neal’s here in the palace and he’s available.”
“I’ll wait until the duke is free.”

It's so Wyldon-esque to wait for Baird. I love the caring side that Kel's showing, and how it takes a bit of pestering to get Wyldon to listen to her.

I think this is really awesome - how she manages to get through to him a little bit, but he's still the same person.

Thanks!! I don't think even Kel could change him too much.
