Realder Had Grown Quickly And Clearly Adored The Fool As Much As The Fool Adored Him. Rarely Did I See

Realder had grown quickly and clearly adored the Fool as much as the Fool adored him. Rarely did I see one without the other in those early days, the little cat always trailing behind my friend, curling around his ankles and playfully weaving between his legs as he went about his daily tasks. It was a comical yet strangely eerie sight, for almost, they could have matched one another in coloration; the Fool now dark as newly polished wood and his tabby gleaming brown beside him.

I commissioned the most lovely portrait of post FF OCACD era Beloved and Realder (and the embroidered purple vest!!!!!!) from the stupendously talented @risoria and I could not be more in love with it 💛 Every little detail is so stunning and Beloved and his kitty couldn't be sweeter... Little wonder Fitz is so down bad! Even I can't stop staring 😍
