one by one they lay the world at my feet,
one by one they drive me crazy.
one by one they drive me crazy.
You linger for a moment longer, turning to press your forehead against the mare's neck. Breathing in her smell, you make some wordless promise that you'll...see her again? Try and be in your shift more often? You don't know. But here and now, standing on two legs as you are, you feel so much like an imposter you want to scream. You don't like lying and with Finn's questions, the fact that you can't give him a full reply ties your stomach into knots.
As he speaks, you open your eyes, patting the unicorn once more before following Finn out. "Well I don't know." You say with a little less brightness. "Maybe you carry one to sharpen pencils." You add with a shrug and a small smile.
"Alright then, the clinic it is." Glancing over at her one last time, you find that she's already gone, and it makes something inside of you slouch and darken. "Well..it's lucky we found her. Wearing that cast during all of LongHeat would have been a smelly and sweaty affair."
