A story inspired by this tattoo · fiction
Late in August, when the Bramleys were dropping their fruit faster than the pickers could gather it, Mab Rowe strung a net of hazel and sinew between two trees at the top of Hollin orchard. Her grandson Tom came up the rows with his boots full of windfalls and asked what it was for.

"Catching," she said. "Dreams come down off the hill every night, and most of them are heavy. Money, the mill, who died and who didn't. Those go through the holes and into the long grass, where the wasps take them. The light ones snag and hang until morning, like dew."
"Which kind do I have?"
"Fetch the ladder and find out."
He climbed up in the dusk and found a single feather caught in the middle of the web, grey and barred like a wood pigeon's, with a bead of blue glass knotted at its quill. When he tugged it loose the whole net shivered, and far down in the village a woman woke with her palm open on the sheet, as if something had slipped out of it.
Tom kept the feather in his shirt pocket all through the picking. He never told anyone what it was, but the next spring he was the one who sat up with the sick and the restless, and people in Hollin said he had a way of knowing where a dream had gone. Mab only smiled and said that was what came of losing a feather to the orchard.
