Among the chaos of moving to a different country, getting Marigold settled, finding new clients and enduring the Godforsaken weather, Avery’s only solace was oftentimes when she was amongst animals. Thankfully working at the Sanditon provided some much needed relief; peace and quiet away from the crowds and she was left to her own devices, murmuring the occasional croon at the animals as she went through their monthly check up. It was her first time working with zebras, but luckily they were close enough in anatomy to horses and unicorns that it wasn’t too hard to pick up on behaviors or diet.
Truth be told, when she was completed, she wasn’t entirely ready to leave the resort. It was quite lovely with a view of the sea-side. Her schedule was fairly open until when she had to pick Marigold up, so she contented herself with heading to the boardwalk instead. Before she could even exit however, she caught sight of a heavily pregnant young woman who had caught her attention.
Praying it wasn’t a birthing emergency, Avery gathered her supplies and hurried over. “Yes, ma’am,” She said, wincing at how intense her drawl came out. The cold air was even more freezing than the winter nights in the middle of the damned desert. She’d never experienced difficulty talking because her lips were so cold. “I can try,” She scanned the woman for any sign of physical distress. “Is everythin’ alright?”
