[sleepily, over Colin's crystal,]

PHEW.

[ genuine relief! ]

I was just passing by that lil window and noticed the straw mat wasn't there and then that Benedict wasn't there and the door was open, I thought maybe they'd killed him or somethin'!

Has he got it, then?

[ Well that sucks. ]

Don't suppose we have a steam room I don't know about, eh? What's it, juniper and uh...?

Nah, I don't have anything to say to that walnut.

[ But you can hear a bit of a smile there, maybe. ]

I might have a nap, actually. I'm knackered.

You're not planning on going all the way back to Hightown are ya?
sulahnan: (um?)

[personal profile] sulahnan 2020-02-08 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
... Colin that sounds like something I would say.

[ Which is, of course, cause for concern. ]

N--

[ Pause ]

I'll meet you outside when your shift is over.
sulahnan: (057)

[personal profile] sulahnan 2020-02-08 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
Outside of the... wherever you are.

[ "Separate from the infirmary" and "not in the dungeon" doesn't exactly narrow things down. ]

Courtyard, I guess.

[ And before he can even finish that yawn, Athessa grabs his other hand and starts to lead him. ]

I think I know exactly what we both need.

[ She leads him to her room, because she finally claimed one for herself rather than staying in the group quarters and stowing her belongings underneath her bunk or in a footlocker.

Though she's already donated spare bedding to one of Sister Sara's causes, she has also hoarded a few plush blankets, layered beneath the sheets on her bed to make it more comfortable.

Athessa releases his hand to rummage through her disorganized belongings, not finding a pee-rolled joint like she hoped, but producing rolling papers and some elfroot. ]


Here, [ She sits by the fire that is blessedly already going strong and pats the floor next to her. ] this'll only take a sec.
sulahnan: (006)

[personal profile] sulahnan 2020-02-08 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Haven't really been able to catch a break lately, have we?

[ She lights the joint, carefully and deftly, in the fireplace and takes a slow drag before handing it over. She puffs out the smoke and points to the dark circles under his eyes, and her own. ]

We match.

[ She shakes her head, and once she's gotten another lungful she pulls off the boots that she unfortunately has been instructed to wear. Not by Bastien, or for any part of training, but by Sawbones. To ward off the chill. ]

Nah, bard training has been fine. Mostly it's everything leading up to it. The dreams, Devigny, being a disappointment, and... [ She stretches out her legs to warm her toes by the fire. ] ...well. Before Nevarra, there was a mission that kinda went wrong.
