Re: Her Sheltered Life

I opened my eyes and looked at the food which seemed less appealing with blood-loss induced fatigue. I was going to try and eat though. I reached for a roll and gripped it. "I guess..." I took one bite and put it back.

**Jayrin** Thu Apr 14, 2011 1:23 am

I held a cup of wine for him. "It's not too bad, is it? Because if it isn't... you should really eat it or this place might not quit bugging me until you eat it all. I mean, really. It's intent on you eating. Oh look! Now you have grapes! I don't have grapes on my pla-" I sighed. "Never mind."

**Ikuar** Thu Apr 14, 2011 1:25 am

I moved the plate onto my lap and carefully pushed myself up, it hurt a lot to do that but I had to eat I guessed. I took the food and started to eat slowly and sip at the wine there. "What is with this place..."

**Jayrin** Thu Apr 14, 2011 1:28 am

"I don't know but it seems to be bent on helping us at all costs. I mean, it gives me what I need before I've completely finished my thought. It's like it knows what I want or need right before I'm finished thinking about how I want or need that specific thing!" I said. "It's weird but... but kind of homey too. Like a mother. Yeah, this place acts like a mother."

Two napkins appeared in my lap.

"I rest my case."

**Ikuar** Thu Apr 14, 2011 1:30 am

"Indeed..." I flopped back, I couldn't eat anymore, I was too tired and in too much pain to think about how I hadn't eaten in three days.

**Jayrin** Thu Apr 14, 2011 1:38 am

I sighed. "Well, eat when you can. If a magic building says you need food, you probably do." I stood up and merged our food together on his plate and set our cups beside it and the plate disappeared from my hand. "Oh, thank you." I said before grabbing the handle on the cart and pulling it along. "I don't suppose you can give me a horse drawn carriage, can you?" It was quiet for a long time. "I guess no-" I laughed. I mean I really laughed. In front of me appeared a horse-drawn carriage toy for children. "I love it! Thank you! May I keep it for my children?" It disappeared, then reappeared beside Zephyr. "I suppose that's a yes..." I started walking again. So, I guessed it couldn't give me the horse-drawn carriage I wanted.

I looked at the toy and laughed, it was really cute. What an amazing room this was. I hated that my love was having to pull me like this, I would have rather carried her.

**Jayrin** Thu Apr 14, 2011 1:42 am

I hummed happily and walked, pulling the cart along. It was surprisingly easy to pull. Almost like I was pulling him down a small slope. "Don't you love the toy?! I think it's great!"

**Ikuar** Thu Apr 14, 2011 1:44 am

"It is." I replied, admiring how well crafted it seemed to be. What a creative building! I laughed softly and set it back down before trying to take a nap.

**Jayrin** Thu Apr 14, 2011 1:48 am

I giggled and sighed. I walked for a long time, stopping every once in a while to wake Zephyr up and make him eat as the building would tell me to. Almost like it knew I wasn't sure how to take care of an injured person. I was certainly learning a lot from it though! Finally it stopped me by placing an extra pillow and blanket on the floor in front of me. I smiled. "Well, I guess it's time for bed?" The lights around us dimmed, staying bright enough to see, but only that much. I checked on Zephyr one last time before curling up on the floor beside his cart and falling asleep quite promptly.

**Ikuar** Thu Apr 14, 2011 8:57 am

I woke up at some point feeling a bit more refreshed but the pain was still too strong, everything hurt and I couldn't sit up without feeling like every muscle was being torn to shreds. I didn't want to wake up Lora, I knew she needed the sleep, so I reached for the drinks next to me and took a long sip. My mouth had been dry previously and after taking the sip I started to fall asleep again.

**Jayrin** Thu Apr 14, 2011 9:40 am

I woke up when the room brightened. I yawned loudly and sat up when the blanket and pillow I had been using disappeared. I checked Zephyr and smiled. He was still asleep, thankfully breathing. I looked over his bandage and amazingly enough, it hadn't bled through. Neither had my own, come to think of it. I frowned some and grabbed the grapes. I was very hungry and they seemed to taste a lot better this morning than yesterday.

**Ikuar** Thu Apr 14, 2011 9:43 am

The room brightening woke me up and the first thing I did was sat up which was a really terrible idea, I grabbed my side and bit back groaning about it because I wanted to grow up and not fuss over the pain. My ears drooped like they did if I was really sick or hurt, I could feel the fur tickling my skin.

I looked over and Lora was eating, I wondered how long she'd been awake for.

"Morning..." I assumed it was morning anyway.

**Jayrin** Thu Apr 14, 2011 9:50 am

"Good morning." I said, smiling warmly. "I think your wound stopped bleeding." I said happily. I handed him a vine of grapes. "Try to eat something... it's really refreshing!"

**Ikuar** Thu Apr 14, 2011 9:52 am

I took the vine from her and took a grape off of it, eating slowly at first but then my appetite started to come back and I felt more talkative than before.

"How is your hand?" I asked, looking at the bandage closely, "Does it hurt?"

**Jayrin** Thu Apr 14, 2011 9:54 am

"It's a bit sore, but it's not so bad. I'm guessing your side still hurts?" I said, laughing some.

**Ikuar** Thu Apr 14, 2011 9:55 am

"A wound that big? How can it not hurt?" I laughed and then winced, it really hurt to laugh. "I should have been more prepared... I didn't see it coming at all."

**Jayrin** Thu Apr 14, 2011 9:59 am

"Big wound... are you referring to mine or yours?" I laughed and bent down to kiss his cheek before popping another grape in my mouth.

**Ikuar** Thu Apr 14, 2011 10:02 am

"Mine..." I hadn't gotten a good look at it but from what I saw it was something that I had never experienced before. "I think we need to walk today..."

**Jayrin** Thu Apr 14, 2011 10:05 am

"Are you sure? You can't even sit up without almost breaking into a sweat!" I had long since abandoned my heels though, so walking wasn't so bad... except for the few sores on my feet. "Are you sure it's okay?"

**Ikuar** Thu Apr 14, 2011 10:08 am

"Maybe..." I laid back down and immediately relaxed, finding it wasn't so painful to just lay flat for a while. I couldn't risk letting that wound bleed again, it would slow us down.

**Jayrin** Thu Apr 14, 2011 12:15 pm

I finished my vine of grapes and began pulling the cart again. "I wonder how long it'll take us to get back..." I wondered aloud.

**Ikuar** Thu Apr 14, 2011 12:16 pm

"I don't know... I feel useless, you sit in the cart and I'll pull you..." I started to move and get up, shaking from the pain, once I started walking though I thought I'd feel better, as long as I didn't bend over.

**Jayrin** Thu Apr 14, 2011 12:18 pm

I stopped walking and frowned. "Zephyr... but, you don't need to push yourself like that!"

**Ikuar** Thu Apr 14, 2011 12:19 pm

I stood up and wobbled a little, "S-Sit." I picked her up and sat her down before pulling the cart, I wasn't about to show up at that castle with her pulling the cart.
