Comments

[deretsune]

[ no it's fine i'm just going to cry on you and keep apologizing for making you leave. EVERYTHING IS FINE.

...idly starts smacking spiders off after a bit once she's gotten the most of her tears out. ]

[rootless]

[this is terrible everything is terrible and i can't stop you from blaming yourself and aaaaaa 8(

JUST. KEEPS. BIRDHUGGING.]

[deretsune]

[ tsuyuhugsssss

i'll just sit here and sniffle and preen your feathers as much as i can :( ]

[rootless]

[the help is appreciated. his feathers are all out of alignment :( ]

[deretsune]

...you need a bath.

[ cleaning and detangling and moving things back where they belong anyway ]

[rootless]

[tiny indignant chirp.]

[deretsune]

I'm not taking you home looking like this. You're getting one.

[ Slowly pushing herself up to stand, gently grabbing an antler. ]

This way, okay...?

[rootless]

[bobs his head in an approximation of a nod, gently enough not to dislodge her hand.]

[deretsune]

[ Slooowly walks him to the public baths, standing close in case he has trouble balancing or something.

And stepping in fully clothed because you're the only dirty one here, man. ...One of the hot springs ones because. Forgot to mention Natsume's probably freezing and soaked from the snow. ]

A lot of things changed since you were gone.

[rootless]

[he can kind of tell, because- hot springs? since when?

AS MUCH AS SHOWERS STILL CONFUSE HIM, he can roll with hot springs, and slides into the water only a little gingerly.]

[deretsune]

We got these baths, and the common room... you saw the windows when you came back in, right?

[ Sits near the edge, gently rubbing the blood and grime out of Tree's feathers and fur. She speaks gently, just... babbling, really. ]

We had to fight underwater for these baths, but we did really well, I think... We have the kitchens now, too...

[rootless]

[is attentive, but since he can't answer mostly focuses on getting clean.]

[deretsune]

[ it's okay she just wants to talk out her feels '-' if you can't talk back this is A+. Cleaniiing. ]

We cleared most of the upstairs, too, so there was a bunch of empty apartments... um, a while back my mother arrived as well. Shortly after you left, actually.

I would like you to meet her, once you're healed and feeling better...

[rootless]

[ 8O

nods!]

[deretsune]

[ you'll learn not to be so excited about that

...nuzzling his face once it's clean .-. ]

I missed you...

[rootless]

[trills a quiet agreement and nuzzles back]

[deretsune]

[ Kissing his beak :( Then going back to washing icky things off of him ugh ]

[rootless]

[....s-so glad you can't see him blush under that fur]

[deretsune]

[ IT'S OKAY. Because you're a deerbird. With no lips. That would be worse. After a bit; ]

...How are you feeling?
