Title: Sandry
Rating: G
Word Count: 249
Pairing: Crane/Rosethorn
Round/Fight: 1F
Summary: The students learn about Crane and Rosethorn's relationship. Part 2: Sandry has company while making the morning tea.
Little Bear always seemed to sense when one of the students rose for the day, and Sandry heard him clamber down the steps as soon as she emerged, still blinking sleep from her eyes, from her room on the main floor.
“Yes, hello, Bear,” she said, squatting down to scratch his ears. “Did you sleep well?”
Yawning, she stood and stretched and began to heat water and scoop out portions for their morning tea. No one slept late in Discipline – much to Briar’s irritation – and the rest of the household would be up shortly.
A door opened and Sandry turned from the counter to ask Rosethorn which tea mix she wanted only to freeze as Crane slipped from Rosethorn’s room and shut the door quietly behind him. He turned and saw her standing at the counter and froze as well as he tried to think of a conceivable excuse for him leaving at dawn.
Suddenly, Sandry grinned. “Are you staying for tea?”
Crane shook his head mutely, looked at her grin for a moment, sighed in resignation, and retreated from the kitchen in defeat. On the way out the door, he scratched Little Bear’s ear absently and then was gone.
Sandry turned back to the counter in a much better temper. “He isn’t as bad as he seems, is he, Little Bear?”
“Who isn’t?” Daja asked as she came down the stairs.
Sandry giggled. “You won’t even believe...”
“Try me,” Daja said, shaking her head. “I saw such an odd thing yesterday.”
