a full breakfast spread, extending beyond expectations - Trickwood Unification, Donel

He'd got up early. Less because he'd slept badly and more because he could hear someone scuffling around just far enough away to make him suspicious.

He'd expected breakfast to be leftovers from the meal before, cold bread and cold-sliced roast, water or smallbeer.

Breakfast, in Hernén's little wooden town, was an array vast enough to make him stare disbelieving. Tureens of porridge, ranging from pale blond rolled oats to something nearly black, a pyramid of blue-green eggs awaiting requests, hot bread, at least four kinds, including some sort of sweet bun and something that smelled pleasantly of wheat and salt, several fish--he'd have been impressed at the variety on the menu in one of the harbour restaurants. That it was just laid out in steaming, busy bounty was awe-inspiring.

He saw Usoa lurking over a kettle, and when she saw him approaching, she threw back her head and laughed. Grinned, all white teeth, as he got close enough to see she ( ... )

*curls up in it and purrs*

I like the talk of the food, and the bafflement over the brothers. What's Usoa's context for the family? (Does she know they're Sabaey, does she know anything about the Sabaeys as a family other than Aifiric=king, if that, etc.)

I'd be willing to bet that Ruadhan winds up getting a warm breakfast when he's got access to it, after a while out if not fairly quickly after showing up.

I think her context at the moment is 'Hernén has brothers'. Which can't be helping the wtf problem.

Aw. I like this. Food is good. I like Usoa, too, and the inevitable reaction that there are THAT many of them. =D

Usoa's human, from one of the smaller trickwood communities. She's doing really well, comfort-wise, though I'm not sure if she's just friends with Niall or friends.

I don't think it's registered yet that they all have different mothers--she's trying to imagine some poor woman having that many manifestly-slightly-crazy kids and going wtf.

(For that matter, from her background fifty's a pretty good run, for age, and none of the four she's met so far look like kids, or like they're getting grey around the edges.)
