🧛‍♂️ A Gentleman's Tour of the Empire 🦇 Edwards makes himself so poorly chasing the vampires through stormy weather that Kenneth is obliged to nurse him back to health. Jo does NOT approve. #wipsnips #writesky #writingcommunity #vampire

“Don’t tell him where we’re going!” Jo howled, ripping off her bonnet in frustration and flinging it onto the ground.

“He knows where we’re going. It’s obvious where we’re going.”

“You don’t need to spell it out for him!”

“No; because he’s not an idiot!”

Edwards watched to the pseudo-siblings squabbling through the open tent flap with a fond half-smile, which he wiped from his face the moment he realised he was doing it. The storm had abated at last, though the air outside his bedroll was still chilly. His throat still felt raw but the cough had subsided.

He sat up, bare chested still, wondering what had happened to his soaked clothes. His bag was open beside him. Someone had rummaged through it while he was asleep and made no effort to hide their pilfering. It looked as though the thief had gone through and unwound all his rolls of bandages on purpose and knotted them, like they were trying to make a point.

“Thank you, Dr Edwards,” Jo replied silkily. “I see you have made time for the barber and changed out of those same rumpled clothes you arrived in. Are we to presume that you have grown tired of being mistaken for a vagabond?”

The doctor pressed his thin lips so tightly that they almost vanished altogether. The top of his head may be tidier, but his square jaw sprouted a decided shadow and the buttons on his waistcoat were misaligned. As though he had dressed and set out in a great hurry.

He was a handsome man, and could be exceedingly so if he bothered to keep himself better groomed. Straight posture, long-legged and elegantly shaped. The sort of defined, lean build that people tended to associate with authority. Unlike Kenneth, who was angular, pale, and pointy, with a base expression which often led to others asking him what the matter was when he was perfectly cheerful.
