Will's been thinking about his education, its something that is always in his thoughts, but he rarely knows what to do.

He asked Bar for some advice, but most of the books she gave him just made learning seem more daunting.

So he's drinking an ale and staring at the fire as he tries to figure out what he should do. Catch him at the Bar or by the fire.

"Hey look," Mia says, coming up to give Will a one-armed hug while he's by the fire. "Someone's overdue to meet his nephew."

She gently tugs over a pram with a little baby inside.

Will hugs Mia back gently and peers into the pram,

"Aye, 'ow are ye doin'?"

[gorgonfondness]

"Just fine. Draco and I had a nice anniversary weekend with Mama helping to watch Cepheus here."

The baby is lightly snoozing, sucking his thumb.

[will_scarlett]

"That sounds nice. Ye look 'appy."

[gorgonfondness]

"I am, and so is Draco. He couldn't be prouder to be a father."

She lightly brushes her fingers against Cepheus, who wriggles a little but doesn't wake up.

"He's almost two months old now."

[will_scarlett]

"'e's beautiful."

[gorgonfondness]

"Thank you," she says.

The baby turns his head a little, still sucking his thumb.

"So, how have you been?"

[will_scarlett]

"Na too bad."

[gorgonfondness]

"Everything going all right in Sherwood?"

Ganymede approaches the fire with light footsteps.

"Penny for your thoughts, Will Scarlett?"

[will_scarlett]

Will turns quickly,

"Na that much goin' on in 'em."

[the_cupbearer]

He raises an eyebrow, leaning against the back of the chair. "What is?"

[will_scarlett]

"Just thinkin' 'bout gettin' ready for the Spring, folks are plantin' an the Sheriff's goin' to start causin' trouble. 'ow 'bout ye?"

Will doesn't feel comfortable talking to many people about his education or lack of one and he doesn't know Ganymede well enough to bring it up.

[the_cupbearer]

"I have many thoughts about many things."

Which is his way of saying most of what's on his mind is either completely irrelevant to Will or something he really doesn't want to know about. "Does your sheriff always cause trouble in the spring?"

[will_scarlett]

"'e always causes trouble, but more chances an ways to cause trouble in the warm weather."

[the_cupbearer]

"If you need help, you have only to ask the people here...I am sure several of them could help you with people causing trouble."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, I know that. They've aided me many a time 'fore."

There were the familiar strains of a cello nearby, where someone had come in to practice a few pieces. School was going again, and second semester was getting trickier with the work.

[will_scarlett]

Will moves a few seats over to be closer to her and smiles as he listens.

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

Kate finished one piece by Liszt, before glancing back with a smile.

"Hey Will sweetie," She set the cello carefully to the side and got up to approach him for a hug and a kiss.

[will_scarlett]

He leans in to give her a long kiss, "Tis soundin' lovely."

[nothawkingbird.livejournal.com]

"Had more practice," She murmured in between kisses back.

[will_scarlett]

"Long as ye're 'appy."

He runs his hand through her hair before saying,

"Keep thinkin' 'bout learnin' more, talked to Guppy but truly dinna know where to start."

"Did you want to sit in on a class then? Or want me to get you more information about getting that GED?" Her head gently tilted against his hand. She missed him so much.

"I am. Now. Missed you. Been busy with the new semester."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, 'rhaps I should sit on a class just to understand a bit."

He hugs her, its not exactly what he meant but its a start.
