Adventure the Third

[philip_charming]

[Coming back to the cottage from the battle with the statue, Philip took care of his horse Samson, moving on autopilot... then just slumped in a chair even as the horse flopped onto a carpet nearby.

Just give him a minute, he'll reach for the bandages soon... Right now, he'll just sit and stare at his battered and aching hands.]

I helped today. I know I did. Lives were saved by my actions; mine, and those of others. But what do you say to the people that died anyway?

What do you do, when your best just isn't good enough?

[Clearly YOU haven't been hanging with the right kind of fairy! Besides, even if that was true, Philip didn't say/think NUTHIN'.]

Not nearly so given as all of that; it's all to easy to move on and forget... and then the same sort of situation happens all over again, and you're at a loss.

[It's important not to take respect for granted, you know.]
