Look, look with your special eyes

Surprisingly, Chimera wasn't worried at all. He'd never had sight in one eye, so what was the worst that could really happen? It could cause him a bit of pain. His eyeball could shrivel up and fall out. He could handle pain and the loss of a dead eye wouldn't affect him a bit. Plus, if Aliana had hope, then he wouldn't doubt her.

When the clouded woman told him to lay on his back, Chimera did just that, rolling his big body in the furs until he was on his back, paws across his chest. Black and white ears shifted as Ali told him each step that she was going through. First the cool water was poured in his milky white eye and the man blinked reflexively. That was no big deal at all. The medicine drops, however, they stung a bit upon initial contact, but something within the herbal mixture seemed to numb the pain. A moment later, there was no pain, just a cold numbness.

Aliana then released his lids and bid that he close his eye, which he did. A moment later the bandages were applied with enough pressure to hold his eye shut. While Ali cleaned up her supplies, Chi rolled back onto his side for comfort's sake. The black and white giant watched with his pale pink eye as his petite little wife flitted back and forth. He did enjoy watching her, no matter how mundane the task. She was his and only his. The other half of his rotten little soul.

Soon Ali was wrapped up in his arms once more, an appreciative growl rumbling in the man's chest. She fit so well against him. Ali asked how he felt and Chi's nose slid through the thicker fur on her cheek. "I feel just fine," he assured her. Would he even be able to tell if his sight was returning with his eye closed? He could only hope that his woman's medicine worked, mostly for her sake. Chi knew that Ali would beat herself up if something went awry. "Let's sleep on it, wife," he rumbled huskily as he pulled her close. "I do so enjoy watching you play doctor." One paw slid down the length of her body to give her pert rump a little squeeze of appreciation.
