Those in Flintlock Lodge tended to have a good nature, the community close and considerate, and it gave rise to frequent acts of compassion. Today, in the heart of the village, several members gathered together to host a charitable clothing giveaway. Of course Eddie would attend, but he felt uneasy in turning up with nothing more to give than his attention.
The old clothing that Charlotte no longer fit into spent most of its time nowadays collecting dust in a box. Personally, Eddie doubted he would ever have another daughter - at least not for a long time - and so what point would there be to keep the clothing around aside from sentimental reasons? He didn’t want to hold onto those memories in the form of little articles of clothing; it only reminded him of how quickly his baby girl was growing up. A melancholy feeling to say the very least.
So, holding onto a canvas bag filled with most of Charlotte’s old baby clothing, and holding onto Charlotte’s hand with his free hand, Eddie wandered into the empty store which temporarily acted as the hub for this act of goodwill. ❝ Don’t go too far. ❞ Eddie squeezed Charlotte’s hand gently before letting go, the young toddler wandering off to explore the store. The store itself was busier than Eddie had expected, which only impressed him more; he hoped that this idea could take off so that perhaps this charity store could be a more permanent addition to the village.
❝ Here’s a couple more clothes to add. ❞ Eddie passed the bag over to an NPC woman, the woman smiling as she took the bag and peered into it. ❝ Oh, they grow too fast, don’t they? ❞ She commented, Eddie turning his head to look over towards Charlotte as she wobbled over towards Brendan, Eddie nodding his head slowly. ❝ They do. ❞
He wandered towards the mirror to where Brendan was viewing the new clothes that he tried on, Eddie standing nearby with a moment of hesitance before gesturing feebly towards the hoodie. ❝ It suits you. The clothes, I mean. ❞ Eddie knew all too well that Brendan was a reserved teenager, probably grimacing internally at the thought of having Eddie stood nearby trying to initiate some semblance of conversation. But, despite past tensions between then, Ed wouldn’t say that he disliked the teenager. Perhaps he felt as if he was treading on eggshells around Brendan, but he certainly did so with the hope of a breakthrough between him and Brendan someday.
Charlotte was by Eddie’s side again, this time wrapping her arms around his leg and leaning against him. ❝ Daddy- ❞ She mumbled coyly, adding, ❝ He has my fav- favor- fav- uh- favorite color on his shirt. ❞ Eddie lowered his gaze, lip twitching ever-so-slightly as he looked down at Charlotte, before he gently rested his hand on the back of her head. ❝ He does, doesn’t he? ❞ Finally, Ed looked back towards Brendan, ❝ You should keep it, else Lottie may steal it from you, ‘ey? ❞
