"My lady, you r-really ought to speak with Sir Deion or Lady Syanna about this lack of sleep," Mel said softly, his words trailing off into a large yawn. He paced next to Lae as she smiled softly, simply enjoying the cool sensation of grass between her toes, and the slightest fall chill creep into the seaside winds. She never wanted to take any of these sensations for granted again. The fact that she was well on her way to being fully energized and recovered was something she never thought she’d be able to muster. "I will, Mel. But the night is so soothing to walk through. It’s quiet, and peaceful. Not a creature around." She glanced down to her worried companion with a sparkling ruby gaze, simply delighted to be in this place, here and now. Her body would likely never be able to run or leap or contort itself as swiftly as when she first arrived to the Hallows - her musculature, though it was building alongside her endurance and core strength, would never fully build up. It would always give her the slightest bony complexion, though she was filling out and no longer appeared as a bag of bones. She paused as her limbs still trembled ever so slightly from the distance they’d covered, reaching the expanse of the quiet plains. She moved forward again, adding, "I’m more than willing to trade a lifetime of sleep for moments like these, and then some." She knew it wasn’t totally true - Mel had a point. She needed the sleep to rest her tired muscles and joints and allow them to heal, and strengthen. But the thought of laying for hours and losing progress on her miraculous recovery was not something she wished to dote on. As they skirted the outskirts of the plains, the arthritic woman’s ruby gaze spotted a familiar figure approaching, heading towards the castle’s direction. The slender fae felt her lips tug upward into a wide smile as she turned to get closer to the brown pelted woman, Mel shifting his position to her other shoulder so she wouldn’t lose balance doing so. Still, the fact that she made it this far was already an amazing step. "Audra! How lovely to see you,” Lae chirped, greeting her with a soft sway of her tail. She offered a friendly glance towards the girl’s bobcat companion, whom Mel murmured a polite but worried ‘hello’ to as well. "So you couldn’t sleep either, hm?" She inquired, glancing over her friend. The bobcat served to be her guide of sorts as well, seeing as she could only see out of one eye. She wondered if everything was alright, considering she came here to be with Avantika. Though, she’d allow Audra the courtesy of replying back, and wouldn’t pry for now. ”Speech” ’Thought’ |
