Old dog, new tricks
Who: Balthazar and Rat, unless somebody else wants to wander in.
When: Day 115
What: Rat needs some new songs, and Balthazar has some.
Where: Big garden near House 11
After checking on the irrigation system and making a new friend, Rat settles at the edge of the garden with his guitar, waiting for Balthazar to show up and teach him some new songs. He could be waiting a while, of course, since he came out there first thing in the morning. His sleeping patterns remain very irregular, partly from habits born of years sleeping on the streets, and partly because he's still jumpier than he cares to admit since his abduction. He's started having nightmares. He doesn't talk about it.
The sun is warm in the garden, though, and he's surrounded by plants and buzzing bees and for this particular moment in time, the world isn't crashing down around everybody's ears. When Balthazar finds him, he's asleep sitting up, leaning back against a low wall with his guitar in his lap. He's a light sleeper, but he looks peaceful while he's out.
