I love the “only one bed”-scene in Silver in the Wood in general but with the additional information that
Silver knew what Tobias was all along
was here to investigate him
this was his very first solo investigation
it becomes so much funnier.
He really took one look at this cryptid and immediately went “Having sex with him counts as investigation, right?”

“So,” he said, “I take it I am to stand around attractively all night, like a choice cut on display at the butcher’s--I hope you can provide me with a better coat for it? Or am I to wear only my nightshirt? And then hopefully our friendly nine-hundred-year-old man-eater will drag me to his lair, at which point the pair of you will track me down and rescue either myself and Maud Lindhurst, or myself and what is left of Maud Lindhurst, or quite possibly what is left of both of us--”

A long, long time, that was what. A long time, whispered the low rustle of the breeze in the leaves outside. A long time, sang the drip-drip-drip of rainwater, softly, while Tobias sat clear-eyed and sleepless in the dark, listening to the wood.

Why is there not more fan art of Tobias Finch and Henry Silver?! If I could draw it myself I would but I can only write and this one is honestly so perfect I don’t even feel the need to do that so I’m being horribly impatient instead. Aah!
Silver in the Wood and Drowned Country. READ THEM. It’s a slow burn gay love story woven into folkloric fantasy and it’s *so good*. My only complaint is that they are novellas and it goes by far too quickly.
“There is a Wild Man who lives in the deep quiet of Greenhollow, and he listens to the wood.”
Silver in the Wood, by Emily Tesh
