Headcanoning that when Will was a bitty child, he’d sometimes storm out of the house over some injustice his parents committed like siding with his sisters or enforcing bedtime even though Raina next door is also his age and they get to go to bed later why not him—! In any case, Nel and Derrig never worried when Will fumed out the door because he was always, most definitely at Orym’s place, sniffling at Alma’s table and rage-eating his way through freshly baked muffins and biscuits.

Orym’s just glad for the impromptu playdate.
