Then it was shoved into his pockets as he scuffed his feet against one another. "Why couldn't Lop come with us today? Did she have to go visit today? Did we have to come without her and Daddy Dex?" He looked towards the woman accompanying him with a raised eyebrow. Weren't he and Calliope supposed to be doing this school thing together?
That WAS what they'd been looking forward to. If today needed a title, it wouldn't be one of comprehensive matter. Tamzin had spent two hours of the early morning crying against her husband's shoulder attempting to come to terms that their oldest two children were within the single-digit-weeks before they would be off to school. She'd raised her boy for eleven years, and Dex had done the same with Calliope. It seemed like only yesterday that she was losing Jessie and carrying Rooney, and mere hours ago that she was left carrying Brinlee and made a single parent. However, she'd cleaned her face up, kissed her husband and other children and let them meander off to Dex's parents for a few hours.
She and Rooney needed to talk about an important subject, and she hadn't felt it was fair to tell him what he wanted to know in front of their family. Getting his wand was somewhat to soften the blow.. "We have a place to go afterwards, Roo. It's your day, honey." And she gave him a one armed hug, knowing perfectly that her son wouldn't want to be fiercely cuddled and covered in Mama!lipstick kisses. Yeah.
Rooney still didn't understand. But okay, Mama. Sure.
He would just compare notes with Calliope later, and see if she knew why they had to do this separately. The conclusion he had came to was that one of them was in trouble, because their parents were no doubt smart enough to separate them for another reason. They were The Doctor and Sarah Jane.
Roo decided not to push it further, but only because his attention had wandered to the measuring tape getting all close and personal with his being. There wasn't a problem, and he actually made sure to stand how he knew it was needed to. He'd been around the tapes in his Ma's life for long enough to get that if he didn't stand still...he was going to end up tripped over by one. "Promise that you'll stay here and let me get it myself?"
Rooney Bronwyn had been saving for his wand since he was five years old.
Because then it truly belonged to him. "By 'stay here' do you mean outside?"
She already knew the answer. Julia: Libby has responded to you here
