20/09 - Wild Meadow (Sinjin, Open) #20September3342 #Aidan-Martell #Love-StJohn


 

Date:?20/09
Time:?Noon
Location:?Wild meadow outside town
Characters:?Sinjin

A mile or so outside of the centre of Brea was a little wild meadow; it had no name, it wasn¡¯t really anything worth name, just a field that had been left to go wild. There were tall grasses punctuated by bright flowers, bushes with fruit and trees that provided shade in the hot summer months. With autumn approaching the meadow looked a little sadder; less colour, and more brackish twigs and branches showing through the leaves as they began to turn.

Sinjin loved it; it was his absolute favourite place to go, in all weathers and all seasons. From out of his backpack he pulled a bright aluminium coloured blanket ¨C it was something left over from the colonists, weather proof, insulted, used in extreme temperatures, but Sinjin used it as his picnic blanket. He spread it out on the ground and sat on it, toeing off his shoes so he could sit crossed legged.

Out of the bag came a sealed container, some utensils, and a metal cantina of water. He was going to enjoy his lunch break; the store was covered, he had no planned deliveries, and if the weather held off the rain then he was going to enjoy his homemade goat curry and rota with the beautiful view in front of him.

Aidan followed the trail leading to the meadow. He'd been foraging mushrooms and wild fruit and berries that morning, for his and SInjin's table and Starla's. In exchange, she'd take their mending and work her magic. Aidan had no talent whatsoever with needle and thread, and relied on his friend to keep him and Sinjin from looking ragged.?

He found himself smiling as he saw Sinjin in the meadow. Not that there was any surprise to it. This meadow was where his partner tended to drift. "Hello, Love," he called. Though his partner went by Sinjin, Aidan did like to use his proper name when the occasion warranted. This was one of them.

Aidan joined his partner in the middle of meadow, setting down his basket on a corner of the blanket. He also toed off his shoes, and then sat next to Sinjin. "Lunch break?" he asked rhetorically.

Sinjin was brought out of his thoughts by a familiar voice calling his name. A fond smile came to his face and he turend his head in the direction of the voice; there were a handful of people that called him Love and he knew that particularly voice intimately.

¡°Hello,¡± he called out, watching his partner walk over and settle himself on the blanket. Curiously he leaned over to look into the basket and gave an exaggerated sniff, ¡°Mushrooms? A good haul, they look delicious. Are you hungry? I have some of the leftover curry from last night.¡±

¡°I thought they¡¯d provide some variety to our table, and Starla¡¯s,¡± Aidan replied. He smiled. ¡°I¡¯ve mending to bring her way, since someone keeps getting caught on odd things and putting holes in shirts or losing buttons.¡±

His tone was teasing. Sinjin truly was no harsher on his wardrobe than Aidan. It just seemed like this week¡¯s mending was all Sinjin¡¯s apparel. Next week, it would be Aidan¡¯s. ¡°That green shirt I like on you ?needs some attention, too.¡±

He shook his head to the offer of sharing the curry and reached under the foraging bounty to bring out his own sealed container, kept secure and warm by being wrapped in a cut of fabric, bento-style. ¡°I brought my own. I thought I¡®d be out this long, even if I wasn¡¯t so fortunate as to catch up with you.¡±

Aidan scooted a little closer, just so that they were pressed together from shoulder to elbow. It wouldn¡¯t stop either of them from eating, but Aidan relished even the smallest displays of physical affection. He¡¯d grown up in a family unit that didn¡¯t value overt displays of affection, so even now he sought it out with Sinjin.

Before unwrapping his lunch, Aidan turned his head and stole a soft kiss from Sinjin. ¡°There,¡± he said with satisfaction. ¡°Since you were out of the house before I was properly awake.¡±

Sinjin probably should have felt more chagrined than he actually did. He merely shrugged with a ¡®what can you do?¡¯ smile which was a shade too innocent to be sincere.

¡°Remind me which shirt is that? I thought you liked all my shirts one me, or even better off me,¡± the tone was teasing and accompanied by a cocked eyebrow and the beginnings of a leer. The leer soon turned to a genuine smile as Aidan scooted closer and settled against then pressed a soft kiss to his lips. Sinjin treasured every touch and soft word from his partner because he knew the love that was behind them.

¡°Ah, an oversight for sure,¡± he pressed the line of his body tighter into Aidan¡¯s, ducking down a little so he could briefly rest his head on Aidan¡¯s shoulder, ¡°I will endeavour to wake you each morning with a kiss ¡­ in a variety of places.¡± He stayed there for a moment enjoying the closeness before sitting back up and returning to his lunch.

¡°Shall we invite Starla over for dinner this week? I still have some minced pork; I could make some meatballs in a mushroom cream sauce, or a chicken with mushroom and chestnut stuffing?¡±

Aidan laughed at Sinjin¡¯s teasing. ¡°I will appreciate that," he replied. "And I will be sure to return each one of them." He dropped a kiss on Sinjin's hair when his head was on his shoulder. It was thinner than it had been when they met, but neither of them were the men they'd been then. And Aidan wouldn't have it any other way. They had twenty eight years together, marked in every laugh line and grey hair.?

"Mmm, both dishes sound delicious. And Starla will appreciate either, and the company. She's alone entirely too much lately," Aidan observed. He'd worried, but she seemed content enough. Sinjin was good about helping him ensure that Starla got some social interaction.?

He took a bite of his lunch, savoring the flavor and the time with his partner. ¡°Any thoughts for the Equinox? I know I should have realized it was coming up, but we¡¯ve been busy this last few weeks.¡±

¡°She always did have good taste,¡± he teased. He liked Starla; she was good company and she clearly cared for Aidan and Aidan cared for her. Even if Sinjin did not like her he would try for his partner¡¯s sake. He was glad that he did enjoy her company and he wouldn¡¯t hesitate to call her a friend.

¡°I haven¡¯t decided what to cook yet; I have some promises of meat and vegetables and labour already. Since I won¡¯t have to peel all the potatoes and veg, I was considering a stew? With some herb dumplings, perhaps a vegetable chilli, there are so many choices! I will stick to the savoury this year; I have accepted that I am no good at puddings!¡±

Aidan chuckled. "The townsfolk of Brea thank you in advance," he teased. "For a man so talented in the kitchen, I'm not sure how your puddings never quite come together as they should. We use the same recipe."?His family had never been big on sweets, so the recipe was actually Sinjin's family's.?The last attempt at a pudding had been watery, not thickening the way it should have. Aidan had taken it away and given it the proper burial it deserved.

"I can try my hand at sweets this year. I'm sure Starla will be happy to help me." Aidan preferred to cook, not bake. He felt like there was more room for trying new things. "I wonder if I can talk her into those apple cakes that I like." Aidan had never developed a real sweet tooth, preferring desserts that didn't make him feel like cavities were instantly forming. Still, he'd somehow developed a weakness for any dessert that featured apples.?

Sinjin mocked sniffed in indignation, ¡°Cooking is a science, baking is witchcraft. I follow the recipes to the letter and they still don¡¯t work! Either the recipes are wrong, all of them, or there is some kind of magic involved. It is the only explanation!¡±

It had rankled a little bit early on, it had felt like a personal failing, but he would soon came to accept that baking just wasn¡¯t his thing. Even bread eluded him on occasion. It was better to stick with what he was good at and what he enjoyed.

¡°I wish you good fortune in your endeavour and I will support you by staying out of the kitchen and eating all the sweet things you bring home. Starla¡¯s apple cake is truly delicious. I was wondering if she might collaborate with us and write down some of our favourite recipes? I realized I have committed many to heart and I think it would be better for all if there was a record of them somewhere. What do you think?¡±

"That sounds like a wonderful idea," Aidan said. "And you know she'd be happy to collaborate on that. It would be nice to have tangible records of dishes like to some of our most important memories. Like that congee you brought me that second spring I was here in Brea, when I got horribly sick."

Aidan chuckled and rested his head on Sinjin's shoulder. "Do you know, that was it for me. That's when I realized that I'd gone and fallen in love with you. And yes, I know it took me forever to do something about it. I'm so very lucky you didn't give up on me."

The memory that Aidan invoked was not exactly a pleasant one, it is never pleasant to see someone you care about sick, but it was tinged with fondness that Sinjin would class it as a good memory. Even if there was a lot of hacking and phlegm involved!

¡°Truly? That was what it took? I used some of my best material on you!¡± he exclaimed in mock horror. ¡°I would never have given up on you,¡± he said softly, a little shyly.

Aidan laughed softly and brushed imaginary lint from his trouser leg. ¡°That was the first time the I truly understood that you wouldn¡¯t give up on me, that I really meant something to you.¡±

He turned his face up to the sun, a smile playing at the corners of his mouth. ¡°You were always so open with how you felt, and you¡¯ve met my kin. They¡¯re nothing like that. I couldn¡¯t imagine someone as vibrant as you being interested in me.¡±

Aidan turned his clear blue gaze on Sinjin. ¡°You¡¯ve done much to change my perspective,¡± he teased.
