She continued to whine, especially when he picked up the spider by one of its many spindly legs. She watched as exactly what she had expected to happen inevitably happened. He had been bitten. Of course he had been bitten because he hadn’t listened to her. She sidled around him and scooped up the spider from behind with both hands and tossed it into the brush.
Chattering animatedly she rounded on him and knelt into the dirt. He was pushing his hand at her, showing off the wound like he was somehow proud of it. Her expression read that she was clearly unamused. She took his hand in hers and inspected the bites which were looking more and more problematic as the seconds passed. She continued to complain in her native tongue, pushing at the punctures with her thumbs like one would pester a blemish. She held his hand tightly, knowing that the pain of her attention would cause him to try and pull away.
The bites oozed blood and fluids at her prodding, she would only be able to get so much of the venom out. It was already in his blood and he’d be feeling the effects of it soon enough. The symptoms varied from person to person. Feverbite Spider venom was known to cause muscle spasms, chills and fever, nausea, and hallucinations. She allowed him to reclaim his hand, but not without complaint, when her inspection became too painful.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
