Are you? Pitiful thing, you. [ NAKED BLOOD HUGS ]

[iheardarumor]

[........... BUT I JUST GOT THE BLOOD OFF.

this is the disgruntled sound of the vainest Lacertan at that fact, but reaching up to inspect a bloodied flower in her hair. NAKED LACERTAN HUGS FOR ALL]

I? And what about you? What have you been doing of late for this?

[tug tug at the blossom]

[thevineintervention]

Hmm~? But of course, it takes what it always had. Plenty of fresh sunlight and honest living.

[ OK! Holding him out to inspect now. ]


Ah! But . . .

[iheardarumor]

[but the staring...

still gonna tug on that blossom]

You know I mean the blood, cousin.

[thevineintervention]

Don't get too excited. It's but the blood of beasts. Breakfast is quite fresh, though, if you'll have it.

[iheardarumor]

[sigh]

And here I was almost hopeful for you.

[let's the blossom go. but does pluck a petal off of it]

Now stop staring so. You should be glad to see a familiar face, but not this attentive.

[thevineintervention]

Well. You can't really expect me to hide my disappointment so perfectly, can you?

[iheardarumor]

. . . disappointment?

How harshly termed for you.

[thevineintervention]

Mm, but you really shouldn't like it, if I lied to you, I don't think.

[iheardarumor]

Well, if need be, I do have a pair of scissors on hand to put your disappointments to rest for all time.

[thevineintervention]

Aww, sweet boy. It really does distress you, doesn't it?


Well, bring your scissors and I'll finish the prune. That much can be helped with, at least.

[iheardarumor]

Here now, what assumptions are you making?

[and yet, passing over the scissors]

[thevineintervention]

[ boop boop, guiding him to more of the washy area than the soaking tubs ]


Aah, should I really say it? It seems a difficult topic for you...

[iheardarumor]

[but the tubs were so nice :< following along nonetheless

and another sigh]

You may ask if you are so curious about it. Your brother certainly reminded me of it frequently when he could.

[thevineintervention]

[ sits him doooown, then expecting the job he's started already ]


There's not much to question when the results are so clear, I'm afraid.

[iheardarumor]

[it's pretty uneven and definitely done more out of sheer aggravation than anything... tidy]

It didn't mend well despite your brother's best efforts. He remembered not enough to do much good.

[thevineintervention]

Mm, I've no doubt he would have done his best, to protect your most precious and true asset.


Well, many terrible things have happened. What can we do but move forward?

[ snip snip~ ]

[iheardarumor]

Resignation has always been a loathsome color on you, and yet you wear it well, Aerta.

[thevineintervention]

[ sighs gently '^' ]


You really can't call anyone loathsome anymore, you know. Not with a scar like that.

[iheardarumor]

You're so terribly rude, first saying you would not comment and then doing so, completely nonchalant.

[thevineintervention]

You're right. That was impolite of me.

Still I am happy to see you, even marred as you are.

[iheardarumor]

Even more rude! Were you always so forward?

But I suppose I shall say the same, even bloodied as you are.

[thevineintervention]

Ah, are you so squeamish now? I wouldn't have expected that.


Still, I think, you really should do your best to be sweet, during such an important reunion. [ tilts his head forward a bit, snip snip ]

[iheardarumor]

[head tilting forward]

I am hardly squeamish. And I am nothing if not sweet.

[thevineintervention]

Your really oughtn't call yourself nothing.
