  1. [16:29] Fenes sat down at the edge of the bed in the medical ward, still tearing up a little bit, she showerd her hands, more burned than ever than the small burn on her cheek.
  2. (Fenes)
  3. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  4.  
  5. [16:35] Alessia helped Fenes get to the bed, She glances over to Revan.
  6.  
  7. "Do you need help? Her hands seem pretty badly injured." the girl asked with a concerned tone in her voice, and then she stares at the Ookami's hand, reddish, with some little blisters.
  8.  
  9. Alessia glances over to her sister and with a bright smile, she said. "Everything is going to be just fine...I'm here, Revan is here...you are with your family, We are going to protect you."
  10. (Alessia Exarion)
  11. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  12.  
  13. [16:48] Walking over to the ward that Fenes had put together herself, he would be sad that he would be working on her, though somewhat thankful he could find someway to repay her.. He supposed putting the area to good use would do just that.
  14.  
  15. He would look at the Exarion and nod, "Hello Alessia.. It's been some time.. I wish the conditions were better.. Have you been well?" He would ask, doing his best to make idle conversation.. Mostly as practice for himself as he took a seat infront of the injured Ookami.
  16.  
  17. Filling a water bowl with cool water, he would set it next to Fenes. "Here.. Rest your hands in here for now until the pain subsides." There were only a handful of times Revan had burned himself growing up.. When he was learning to cook.. And when he fought his father.
  18.  
  19. Looking back to Alessia he would nod, "Yes, if you could get me a wet clock and apply it to her cheek.. I'm going to see if we don't have any burn cream." Sitting up from the stool, he would offer it to Alessia so she could be comfortable as she tended to her sister, he would defer to her comforting presence to assist Fenes.
  20.  
  21. "Your cheek appears to be a third degree burn.. Your hands, however.. Are atleast second.. We don't want to break the blisters.. They prevent infection.." He would explain to both of them as he fished through the cabinets until he found one.
  22. (Revan Task)
  23. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  24.  
  25. [16:54] Fenes gave a nod towards Revan, tears in her eyes drying as she put her hands in the water- letting them soak for quite a while as she then looked towards Alessia. She forced a smile out, as she looked for a wet piece of cloth for the burn on her cheek.
  26.  
  27. "Sorry you had to see that, Alessia. Still nice to see you."
  28.  
  29. Her head then lowered a bit, closing her eyes And wincing a few times at the burns. She let out a sigh. She thought back to the other potion she had in her bag. She might just get rid of it, Cloud might be someone she didn't like, but if he was to come to get some sort of revenge in anger, like Banri, it would put the others in the guild in danger...And it was already bad enough.
  30.  
  31. Her hears flattened again when thinking back To banri, hopefully they'll be able to talk this out., she kept both her hands submerged in the water until Revan would tell her to take them out, since the pain kept coming back anyway.
  32.  
  33. "I'm... just an idiot, aren't I..."
  34. (Fenes)
  35. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  36.  
  37. [17:04] Alessia kindly nodded to the bandage-boy and step in to get closer to her sister.
  38.  
  39. "I know, I wish this would have been different but what we could do..." The girl turns to a table next to the bed, she took a piece of cloth with her hands and gently place it inside the water, impregning it with the liquid.
  40.  
  41. Alessia wait for a second or two and take out from the water the tissue, She wrung it out and gently placed it on the cheek of the young ookami.
  42.  
  43. "No...Even if he was mad at you, he should know better...he shouldn't use magic like this." She stop her talking for a moment.
  44.  
  45. "Do you felt better?" Asked Alessia, she was worry that she was applying too much pressure over her cheek.
  46.  
  47. "No...Even if he was mad at you, he should know better...he shouldn't use magic like this." She stops her talking for a moment.
  48.  
  49. "Does it feel better?" Asked Alessia, she was worry that she was applying too much pressure over her cheek.
  50.  
  51. A tear formed on her left eye and continue. "Magic is for protecting our family...not to harm our close ones...even if We are mad or angry." The young Exarion turns her sapphire eyes towards Revan.
  52.  
  53. "Understood." Alessia nodded to the explanation, it was interesting everything that he said, the girl looks at him with bright eyes, trying to hold her tears.
  54.  
  55.  
  56. (Alessia Exarion)
  57. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  58.  
  59. [17:14] Returning to the bedside with the burn salve in hand, he would let the two sisters talk for a bit. He didn't like how much Banri had changed with the sip of a potion, though he didn't favor Banri very well anyway.. He tolerated him for his strength, and that was about it.
  60.  
  61. As Fenes asked if she was an idiot, he would let Alessia speak, though he felt the need to interject. Revan thought differently than others, and he would remember the conversation Fenes and him shared just before he took his nap, only to awaken to this debacle.
  62.  
  63. "Actually.. I think that depends.." He would say in reference to the idiot part, "... What did you learn from this?" He would ask the Ookami, gesturing for her to pick her hands up from the water as he would squirt the cream over the blisters and burns.
  64.  
  65. "Alessia.. I think you will have a much more delicate touch than I.. Could you gently rub that in?" He would reach into his bag where he kept his own private collection of bandages, breathable, but much tougher than ordinary cloth.
  66.  
  67. After the cream had be massaged into the burns, he would begin to snuggly wrap her hands. "Now.. We don't want to risk the blisters popping.. So I'm going to need you to take it easy for atleast a week, changing the bandages every morning and every night.. I can help you with that.." he would say, knowing it might be hard for her to have to rely on someone to help feed her, stir her cauldron as she practiced her alchemy, but it was the only path to recovery, with the methods he had at hand.
  68. (Revan Task)
  69. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  70.  
  71. [17:22] Fenes's Jade green eyes looked up towards Revan, it.. depends? So she truly was an idiot? She had a sad look on her face, but her eyes wandered over the cabinet next to the bandaged teen, letting out a sigh.
  72. "...I learned to not do jokes like this...If people get.. hurt over it."
  73.  
  74. She took her hands out of the water, the pain had subsided, both on her cheek, and most of all, on her hands. Still, she will feel a bit of pain when picking things up, for a little bit.
  75.  
  76. She watched Alessia rub the ointment into her hands silently, wincing sometimes as it still was, well, burns. At least Alessia could learn a thing or two from this as well. her head turned towards Revan, she gave a nod. A week of not being able to really do anything, so the blisters won't pop... She nodded towards Alessia. "I feel a little bit better... But Banri's reaction was legitimate... even if it was a bit much, yes."
  77.  
  78. The Jade green eyes looked down to her hands, being bandaged by Revan's expert hand- he was entirely covered in them, so he knew how to handle those, surely. It would be hard for her to not move from here for an entire week, and not touch anything. It was really hard to think about that, but she'll accept the help.
  79. "Okay...I guess I'll hang around and... not touch anything for a bit. Thank you Revan. And Sorry for this. For this happening." her ears flattened completely atop her head, looking down at the ground.
  80. (Fenes)
  81. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  82.  
  83. [17:30] The girl glances over to Revan and smiles. "What does this cream does exactly?" Alessia took the tub and squeeze it, she pours the contains all over the burn and gently rub it with a little stick that she found on the table.
  84.  
  85. "I hope this doesn't hurt you, sister, and if it does, I'm sorry. " The Exarion was just following the bandage-boy instruction.
  86.  
  87. Sapphire kind eyes shifted from the ookami hands towards the boy's one, she stares at the whole process of how he was applying to the ookami hands the bandage if he was a painter, this would be one of his best work.
  88.  
  89. "Don't be silly...you were joking, stop blaming yourself, Banri is also fault for the way he treats you." The girl insisted a bright smile formed on the girl's face as they finished the cure of the burn.
  90.  
  91. "I'll stick around too, I want to take care of you sister...and perhaps i can cook for you some magical biscuits." With a kind tone the girl said.
  92. (Alessia Exarion)
  93. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  94.  
  95. [17:46] Fenes would pull a lesson from this experience, it didn't matter what it would be, so long as she learned from this pain. His expression growing softer as he finished tying the bandages.
  96.  
  97. ".. Then you're not an idiot." He would simply say in response, though as the Ookami tried to justify Banri's actions, he would shake his head. Not in denial that either party was right or wrong, only because he felt she was missing the point.
  98.  
  99. "Nothing ventured, nothing gained." It almost sounded cold, but he could find himself continuing. "You had the urge to use a potion, and did so without knowing how it would make Banri feel.. He reacted in a negative way you did not expect.. He has been hurt, much like you.. But his injury is not on the outside."
  100.  
  101. It was another callback to their earlier talk, trying to explain the way he viewed the world to her, to find hope that someone would understand. "No one was killed, and no one will die because of this.. You are both hurting.. But time will heal all wounds.. But time is not the only medicine.. Infection could set in without treatment." It seemed he was getting metaphorical now, a bleeding divide had been made between Fenes and Banri, but that doesn't mean it couldn't be salvaged.
  102.  
  103. "I know you are still hurting, Fenes.. But I suggest you heal." he would raise a bandaged hand to poke at her forhead, expressing what he truly meant by it. "Before going to speak with Banri. Things will not be the same, just as you won't be able to use your hands for awhile.. However.. In time, you will find that your friendship will be stronger because of it.. Just as.. You're likely to have callouses." Not the most eloquent way to end his long shpeel, but he was hoping the message he was trying to impart would not get lost.
  104. (Revan Task)
  105. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  106.  
  107. [17:55] She looked down at her bandaged hands, because she did this, she learned some lesson, did she...? She wasn't an idiot, but this was still a giant mistake. She lifted her head back up just in time for her forehead to be... poked. Fenes blinked a few times- Revan's words setting in for a bit. A small smile formed on her lips, nodding.
  108.  
  109. "We'll talk, of course... Whenever that will be. In time. I'll get a bit better, and not use any of those potions again. "
  110.  
  111. She gently put her hands on her knees, not moving her fingers much. She sighed. "I hope it will be okay.", would be the only words leaving her mouth for now.
  112.  
  113. She looked towards Alessia and Revan, Jade green eyes settling on them for a few seconds. The Ookami will need to prepare herself before talking to Banri, whenever they show up to talk. She took a deep breath, exhaling afterwards- a long exhale, before she smiled again, looking down at her hands.
  114.  
  115. "Guess my hands won't be as soft for quite a while.", she giggled, before looking back towards Alessia, she gave a nod.
  116.  
  117. "Your biscuits are always delicious, Alessia. I'm sure they'll be a nice treat from time to time."
  118.  
  119. She then started to stand up- laying down wasn't necessary for her, she could sit anywhere, she just couldn't.. touch anything.
  120.  
  121. (Fenes)
  122. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  123.  
  124. [18:05] Alessia glances over to Revan, he was speaking metaphorically, at first it was hard to get what the Task was talking about, the burn? the friendship of those two?
  125.  
  126. The Exarion with the time understood, that he was talking about Fenes and Banri relation and that it would take time for them to fix it.
  127.  
  128. She gave her sister a warm and kind smile. "Don't worry, you two are going to be fine, Sometimes family can hurt you, but it doesn't mean you should stop being part of their life, right? " the Exarion face was lighted up with hope and tenderness, she knew that they will remain as a family...all of them, Dragon Tooth.
  129.  
  130. Alessia saw that her sister want to stand up, she helped her and let her walk on her own.
  131.  
  132. "Please, if you need something, don't hesitate to ask e sister."
  133. (Alessia Exarion)
  134. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  135.  
  136. [18:09] He was happy to see that the spirit of his message translated not just to Fenes, but Alessia as well. He wasn't exactly the most well spoken individual, especially in matters such as this. However, he did his best to convey it through means he did understand:
  137.  
  138. Pain. Healing. Growth.
  139.  
  140. He would look between the two sisters, he hadn't seen Alessia for some time, so her presence certainly was a curiosity of his.. Though she was clearly here for Fenes.
  141.  
  142. "Would you two like.. Some alone time?" He would ask with a cant of his head. He didn't want to intrude if they had anything personal to discuss.
  143. (Revan Task)
