"Hey, you hungry? I was headed to the mess hall when I..." he paused. What...had happened? Had he passed out? He couldn't quite remember. "Got distracted." He kept stroking at him, trying to pull him out of his hair and put him on his arm. He did not resist. 1 minute ago, Cash67 said: Pic nodded with uncertainty, then stopped all of a sudden. “Dissonance! I’m in your cot, aren’t I?” He hurriedly gets up and heads to the nearest chair. “Here, you have more to worry about than I do, and you’re supposed to rest for a day more.” “No, it’s fine. I figured you needed it more than I did when you passed out. By the way, what happened?” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She wanted to meet the newcomer, food could wait. And she wanted to get to know Tal a little better, he seemed interesting in his own right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cash67 Where’s/Perry Posted March 4 Report Share Posted March 4 16 minutes ago, Spark of Hope said: "Huh? Oh! No." She wasn't lying - she just wasn't telling the full truth. Pic looked at her, concern evident on his face. He opened his mouth to say something, but then thought better of it and closed it. A few seconds later he did the only thing he knew how to do: sing. A quick, lilting melody escaped his lips, full of life, full of new beginnings, and containing many happy endings. Pic hummed the same short melody a few times, not adding to it. After about 30 seconds, he turned to watch and see if Aventine would sing along. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
