[Not only Myr's ears but his entire demeanor lifts as he hears Everett's voice; he straightens his shoulders and raises his head as the other Faun all-but-bounds over to meet him.]
Crookytail, [he calls to his wormipede, who obligingly lifts up several segments to take the basket he's carrying. All the better for him to reach out for Everett and grab his much-taller Bonded in a tight embrace.]
Better now that you're home, dearheart. [He's still exhausted and worried, through their Bond, but he's not lying about being better: It's one big worry put to rest to have Everett back with him.]
You're home to stay, I hope? They won't need to see you back? [Hopefully those words don't come off sounding a little desperate. Too many of Myr's people (his herd) are where he can't reach them right now.]
