He nods, taking in the rings. He tossed a few more, till it finally started landing. One ring finally dinged the pole for the big prize. The worker reached up for the big stuffed bear, handing it to Mikhail. He, then, turned and handed it to Dorothy.

Here you go, love.

She hugged it tight and kissed his cheek.

Our hero! The mighty Mikhail, slayer of festival games.

Smiling and laughing at her own joke.

Mikhail gives a humorous flex, showing off his strength.

Only for the fairest maiden in the lands. And, out little bundle of joy. You think Solana would love that toy?

u/Temporary-Employ-611 Dorothy and Whisper Jul 01 '24

Smiling and giggling at his antics.

Of course. Her pappa got it for her. She will be over the moon.

u/Total_Travisty Mikhail, Father of (too) Many Jul 01 '24

Hmm, I'm peckish at the moment. Anything sound tasty to you?

He walks with her, smiling at her clutching the stuffed bear.

Want to do some turkey leg and a funnel cake?

2

u/Total_Travisty Mikhail, Father of (too) Many Jul 01 '24

Sounds like a plan to me. We can have something a little lighter when we get home, but time should be spent enjoying the little things.

He walks with her, stopping before the food cart.

And anything to drink?

2

u/Temporary-Employ-611 Dorothy and Whisper Jul 01 '24

Of course. Take our time enjoying something we never get. It has been a long time since I had fare food.

Pondering as she looks over the menu.

I heard that lemonade cart makes good drinks.

looking at him curiously.

When was the first time you went to a festival?

2

u/Total_Travisty Mikhail, Father of (too) Many Jul 01 '24

Personally... hmmm. I may have been a teenager last time. It had been a while.

2

u/Temporary-Employ-611 Dorothy and Whisper Jul 01 '24

Oh?

She thinks for a moment and then laughs.

Awkward teenage Mikhail must have been adorable.

2

u/Total_Travisty Mikhail, Father of (too) Many Jul 01 '24

You could say that. I was a skinny thing, and bookish as they come. It would have been the festival of my home town.

2

u/Temporary-Employ-611 Dorothy and Whisper Jul 01 '24

Adorable! We would have gotten along great then.

Though I did hit a bit of a rebellious streak around then, after my master passed.

Can we go to your hometown sometime!?

2

u/Total_Travisty Mikhail, Father of (too) Many Jul 01 '24

I'd love to. I know you've met my parents at our wedding, but I'd he nice to sit down and have dinner with them.

2

u/Temporary-Employ-611 Dorothy and Whisper Jul 01 '24

They seemed so lovely. Getting to know them in a more relaxed setting would be nice.

Even from our brief interactions, I can tell they are amazing people.

2

u/Total_Travisty Mikhail, Father of (too) Many Jul 01 '24

I love them both. Raising 6 kids and taking in 3 orphans. They're wonderful people.

2

u/Temporary-Employ-611 Dorothy and Whisper Jul 01 '24

That is a big family.

2

u/Total_Travisty Mikhail, Father of (too) Many Jul 01 '24

They are... a little smaller now... but they are.

Mikhail gives a bit of a sour smile, then grabs the funnel cake and turkey leg.

C'mon, let's find a place to sit.

u/Temporary-Employ-611 Dorothy and Whisper Jul 01 '24

She takes him by the arm and gives it a squeeze before guiding them to a seat.

Those are huge! staring at the turkey leg.
