Re: Svarik and the company II

[Mirach]

"If I don't return in time," Svarik corrected him.

[VisAnastasis]

" Yes, that. " Falcon seconded that, though only quietly." He cleared his throat." So, ahem.. conversation dead ends, am I right? Awkward things..." He changed the subject practically." But what about now? What about today? Any plans?"

[Mirach]

"For today?" Svarik asked, as if wanting to make sure he understood the question. "I don't know about you, but I only want to lie down now..."

[VisAnastasis]

" Oh, come on.. What happened to that whole *I'd make plenty great memories if I had someone that's going to die*?I can't work today, and that's your unique chance to have me all for yourself for few hours. " Falcon teased faintly. " And you just want to lie down? "

[Mirach]

"I don't know, but to me, good memories usually don't involve my head feeling like someone used it instead of a ball in some game..." Svarik smirked a little.

[VisAnastasis]

" Well, king Silly, some would say that when someone is gone, any okay memory is a great memory. But you do you. " Falcon snorted. His look grew thoughtful  then." Maybe we could actually.. check if Tide is free?" He suggested." He is all about balancing liquid and stuff. Maybe he can help us a bit, with headaches at least. I'm not in my best shape, either."

[Mirach]

"I believe this migh make a nice memory, but it's not a nice present," Svarik smirked. "Yes, asking Tide is a good idea."

[VisAnastasis]

" Can you call him, Simbel? You're most presentable from the three of us to go in public, it seems, little one..."  Falcon smiled lightly, and explained it in thoughts. Critter smiled shyly, timid before a task, but grateful for chance to aid them. He left right away to bring demon.

[Mirach]

"Only if he's not doing anything more urgent," Svarik added. "It can wait..."

[VisAnastasis]

" Death is currently asleep, don't worry, Sun." Simbel replied in thoughts." I'm sure Tide could spare a few minutes." He said, and left. He returned a bit later, timidly leading the Demon there. Tide in meantime found to borrow another, lighter pair of gloves that suited him better - and while he appeared a bit emotionally drained with everything going on, he was pleased to see meadow king anew in one piece.

[Mirach]

Svarik greeted him and offered him a light meal before asking anything from him.

[VisAnastasis]

Tide accepted, seeming pleased with the courtesy. He had lot on his mind, so he was mostly quiet during the meal, before he gently suggested his assistance.

[Mirach]

"Thank you, it would be most welcome..." Svarik said to that.

[VisAnastasis]

Tide smiled a bit more at that, as if he found that endearing.
" My, why am I bid so politely, for such a trifle? Oh, dear. Dearest little king, but why, I am your guest. It's only natural that I am to aim to return your courtesy with courtesy, kindness with kindness. " He said gently. " I can help. Now, to what degree, it depends on thee, and how much you're willing to put up with annoyance from a silly old demon.. " he tilted head to him. " I offer no deal for this. It's a goodness of my heart, a grace in exchange for your goodness to me. I can help either halfy, or fully. Half help would get rid of most of unpleasantry and make it mild, but there'd still be some unpleasantness left- while full help would get rid of it all. The second one, though, would have you, alas, have a bit of an unpeasantry in next half an hour, as you'd have to throw up the built up toxins within you. But after that, you'd be good to go. " he explained with sympathy. " May I have your reply as to which of the two you'll choose, sweet little king? "

[Mirach]

"If we choose the second, there's no reason to take the day off then..." Svarik sighed. "We should do that and get back to work, shouldn't we?" he asked without much enthusiasm.

[VisAnastasis]

Falcon looked at him a bit thoughtfully. His gray eyes narrowed at meadow king - and but for a moment to him, it seemed there was a spark, familiar one, that was there less often, the closer man got to king - a spark of calculation, with an almost audible sound of gears turning, ever so mysteriously, inside that mans head. At last, he shook his head, actually, as he made a weighty decision.

" In name of seven hells, damn... If king and his right hand can't take a brake one day, what has this world come to? We may feel better, but we'll definitely not look dashing, none the less, and it's terrible for morale of men, for their leaders to look bad. " he looked at king with some weary, but sincere affection and favor, bittersweet with thoughts of their future, but still unapologetic. " Let's take the manly route, and take the day of, anyway. I'd say we've earned it. "

[Mirach]

"Are you sure?" Svarik asked. "I thought you will want to get back to work... Well, I'm not sure if I earnt a free day much, but I think you did, and I will just tag along..."

[VisAnastasis]

" I earned it for amount of work I did already, but you earned it too. Maybe not by work as much - but you had lot to weight you down, and emotional exhaustion counts the same in my book as physical one. You deserve a good rest. " he bumped king's shoulder lightly in support. " Come on, kiddo... Let's just have one day for us guilt free, for a change, okay? No need to feel bad about it. "

[Mirach]

"If you won't feel bad about it..." Svarik smiled hesitantly. "Let's get rid of this hangover then, so we can enjoy a day off..."

[VisAnastasis]

" I pinky promise I will give my best. " Falcon smiled. With it, he decided to be first, and after Simbel brought empty buckets, Tide gently look care of two of them, especially so, knowing the unpleasantry of hangover and throwing up the bad things they were oversaturated with.

[Mirach]

Svarik endured it without complaint, knowing thatbthe fault for it is only his.

[VisAnastasis]

It didn't take long, with some subtle gentle magic ancient creature could conjure up with ease, after throwing up and some warm blankets, for them to feel better. Changes were gradual, but by the time Tide tucked them in and chanted some gentle demonic runes over them, they were already feeling quite soothed, and Simbel's soft presence erased the last remnants of discomfort, as swiftly as an iron smoothed out creases on clothes.

[Mirach]

"That's much better," Svarik sighed with relief. "Thank you... Did you have some time to see the city yet? Since we have some free time now, we could show it to you, what do you think?"

[VisAnastasis]

" I didn't have time, but I am sorry... I would like to sit that one out, if it's okay, lovely little king. You see, I never had a chance to have a sight seeing, and I want to go with Seine... We are dating. " He admitted verbally for the first time, and despite the mask, it was apparent he sought for sign of king's opinion, harsh or mild." I'd never go with someone other than him and neglect him like that.... and I look forward to it likewise. " He blushed a little, seeming pleased with himself."  If I may say so, it's getting quite serious... "  

[Mirach]

"So you think he might be the one? Then I'm happy for uou," Svarik smiled. "It really was totally unexpected..."
