    Summary

    They know what’s coming, what the dread hanging on Spencer’s limbs and catching in his wings, making his feathers fall, drifting to the cold, linoleum floor, means; it’s nature.
    No one speaks, heads bowed as their youngest closes his eyes, stillness matching Luke’s while tired tears fall onto the older swan avian’s hospital gown. There’s nothing to say.
    It happens when the sun begins to set, ending their last day together, clouds glowing gold against the pink sky like hazel eyes and tear-stained cheeks, fading light illuminating two pairs of wings, two bodies folded together, and countless tears.
    It’s quiet when it happens, when one of their own slips away, becomes a memory, snippets of time keeping him alive, then loud.
    So loud.

    or, luke gets injured in the field, and spencer doesn't leave his side (until he has to)
