The name also means "a bottle of wine that can hold the equivalent of 8 normal bottles" and "The longest-lived being" or something to that effect.

Oh, I see lol But I have to
But I have to say that the tree was definitely not the first thing that came to mind xD
I actually got the name from this: "A patriarch supposed to have lived 969 years (Genesis 5:21-27) who has come to be regarded as epitomizing longevity."
Hum... I will be so rude to

Want me to help with the css?
No, no, don't worry about it.
I need to go through it and change some things so it doesn't resemble your design so much.
Small gentle taps of her
Small gentle taps of her front hoof were given as she led him to a more secluded spot, a tree she had grown accustomed to, closer to his forest and settling close enough to reach out with a long neck to press her nose against the soft yet slightly worn fur of the mystery stag, still unknowing of his name, only knowing of the rising need to be near to him and discover more of him. Silence had been their companion, no words uttered during their brief encounters. For now she was more than alright with continuing in silence, exhaling slowly as her head dipped carefully to find the spot between front shoulder and ribs. Pressing the smooth curve of her mask to him lightly she touched her forehead to his side, careful with her movements on the blinded stag.
His ears twitched feverishly,
Muscles moved against the
Muscles moved against the sleek mask, the cardinal doe feeling movement and remaining still as if she were asleep. Long ears only turned slightly to listen for any notice or sound of discomfort. A heart beat slightly faster when out of the corner of her eye she saw the lowering crown of the stag, watching motionless as the distance between him and the ground began to diminish slowly as the moments passed. Once contact was made she released the breath she had been holding, eyes closing and keeping still for a good while, focusing on the slight rise of his body with each breath he took and feeling the slight but gentle motion enough to calm her. It promised a good sleep if she were to remain as she was. But as time grew and the muscles against her masked managed to relax even slightly the doe began to move. Only shifting, muscles twitching. A slight warning before she lifted her head to match the speed of his decent to the ground, the maned doe taking precious time to rest over the shoulder blades, eyes more alert and able to see more to allow him to rest. It seemed he was in dire need of it, his guard weary it seemed. Maybe weary of her. Maybe not. Regardless she would be his eyes for him, silent warnings to be given when needed.
Oh Jettem, such a sweet girl
oh hey, I don't mind you
It seemed the stag had wanted
It seemed the stag had wanted the company of both, the scarlet ibis having intended to lead him nearer to the once small fae doe and to give them time together without company now that Pandora had been returned. But his call and nervous moments told her otherwise, returning quickly to settle both her nerves and the blinded bull.
Now there was peace, the gentle calmness in the space between the three as they rested, a crisp blue gaze unfaltering as it constantly swept the landscape, on the lookout for approaching figures, occasionally tapping her chin to the mid-spine of the larger stag. Physically he seemed to be lacking in health, noting this and already planning to find a way to improve on it. Fish maybe? A few older squirrels nearing the end of their days? Nuts and berries too possibly. She would show him the areas that held other than grasses and ferns to satisfy one's empty belly. For now..rest seemed best for him.

"W-what is your name?" She asked, trying to sound nice, though her words were jumbled and awkward, tumbling out of her mouth in a heap, and piling up on the hardened ground below like vomit.
His ears remained alert,

Yes, I do.
Taya's eyes clouded, "Taya,"
Her mind wandered back to the stag...Methuselah, 'Quite an interesting name,' "Well, Methuselah," she paused, letting the eponym roll off her tongue for a moment. She was loving the dark undertone to it, and the fact that it seemed to be more feminine (ending in the 'a' sound, whereas most male names ended with an 'o' or 'us' or other heavier vowel-consonant combinations); it gave his whereabouts a whole new mysterious feel, like he was something slippery that could vanish right before the doe's eyes...'Suiting,' she thought, before continuing, "I may be new here myself, but I don't believe I've seen you around these parts," the statement hid a question beneath it. Taya wished to know if this acquaintance was as overwhelmed as herself, or if he was used to the forest. Either way, he could be of use to her.
