Svarik and the company I :)

[Mirach]

"I think she will, she likes sweets," Svarik nodded. 

[VisAnastasis]

Boy nodded gently, and he added honey plentifully for the little critter. After brew was made, as it's nice fresh scent started to spread through the room, boy filled a big nice cup for Xia, and he also filled one for Erdel.

[Mirach]

"Because you are both good," Svarik winked to Erdel. "Maybe we could go somewhere more comfortable?" he asked Emil. "You said it can make yokai doze off..."

[VisAnastasis]

" Do you wish to go to your room? We kept it it warm for you. " Emil replied. " Or if you desure, we can return back to the main hall, where we were before. We make sure fire is lit there without exception or end. "

[Mirach]

"If it's just for a few minutes, we can return to the main room. The chairs there are quite comfortable," Svarik said.

[VisAnastasis]

" Me and my priests could carry the armchairs  upstairs for you and your friends, if you'd like. " boy said as they were walking toward hall again. " I am charmed and delighted with your company, do not mistake me - but I'd rather wish to delight you as well, and I can see you're tired. If you'd prefer privacy of your room and rest instead of talk, I won't insist to bother you with my companionship. " he smiled tenderly. " After all, I am your host, and you, my dear guests - my pleasure is to serve you to your liking with all I have. "

[Mirach]

"I admit I am tired... Is that so visible?" Svarik asked. "Otherwise I would really like to talk for longer, but now I guess it would be wiser if I went to sleep. But you don't have to stay in the room, you can go down and talk more if you want..." he told Erdel. "After you taste this and get some rest with it, that is. I'll be safe with Xia."

[VisAnastasis]

" I appreciate your kind offer, s--Svarik. " vampire said shyly. " It's true I'd very much enjoy talking with someone who knows so much of all these things, but in this case, I'd prefer to stay with you, just for sake of my peace, please. I promised ser Falcon I will take good care of you, and I'd rather do so that anything else - I'll stay with you in your room, if you allow, and make sure the fire is lit decently through the whole night and we don't run out of wood... "

[Mirach]

"As you wish," Svarik accepted that. "Just remember you can leave that to Xia and go down if you are bored. I think I could manage to explain it to her."

[VisAnastasis]

" You are too kind - I will remember it, but I doubt I'll change my opinion. It was quite enough worry for one day for me that I had to leave you for few hours this morning. " Vampire said fondly. Along with Emil, he helped carry the needed armchairs to their nice little room, that was indeed, rather warm and pleasant, as it was easy to keep the smaller room warm instead of a big main one downstairs.

[Mirach]

Svarik thanked them, and bid them good night after telling Emil about their plans for tomorrow. "But first I watch and you get some rest," Svarik said when the priests left, encouraging Xia and Erdel to drink their brew expectantly.

[VisAnastasis]

Erdel was a little more hesitant, since he wasn't sure if he should lower his guard down like that, not much used to it, and more inclined to watch over Svarik. But when Xia, understanding what they're asked to do, went to him and sat down in his lap, snuggling with him, he couldn't resist the little creature's encouraging and pursuing as she comically was making a drinking gesture. He first helped little animal drink, because she had trouble holding big mug with her little paws, and after it, when animal seemed to grow somehow sleepy, purring in his hands, he smiled, and slowly drank his cup zoo.

" It smells a bit like that tea Cernunnos made for me today.. Just.. much stronger... " he murmured thoughtfully as he drank, despite he was conflicted on idea of whether he should drink or not, not able to resist the luring taste of the treat. Emil must had made a really strong doze, as around time he was ending drink, vampire was barely keeping his eyes open. He was resisting it for a moment, trying to stay awake, but it seemed too much - the place just felt too nice and safe, and company of two people he trusted was reassuring and pleasant. The cup fell from his hand, and rolled on the floor - and by that time, vampire seemed to be already drowsy and asleep. Although the sleep was light, the effect of the potion seemed to be deep and lingered within his essence intimately and pleasantly, as some permanent, troubled frown seemed to have melted from his face for that one moment, and both his and Xia's auras were rather radiant and bright under it, affecting their surrounding - making Svarik who was close by feel refreshed and relaxed, as their own feeling of tranquility in the dream seemed to seep around them, so strong they could manifest upon seeing world, but because they were positive, not negative emotions, not taking a form of miasma, but of cozy warm breeze.

[Mirach]

Svarik picked up the cup and then sat down on the bed, watching over the sleeping demons and enjoying both the sight and the peace that they radiated.

[VisAnastasis]

They were sleeping for around ten minutes or so. Then, slowly, they would start to stir up a little - though they seemed rather dazed and hard to wake up, in state that could be compared when humans would be drugged heavily. However, it seemed it was a nice experience and nice waking, as soothing safe environment helped make them feel at ease, as well as fact that they both had demonic essence, and being so close to one another, their presences were soothing each other and prolonging the lingering pleasant sensation.

[Mirach]

Svarik added some wood into the fire, but did not disturb them yet, letting the wake up slowly and gradually.

[VisAnastasis]

Xia was the first to get to her senses, her instincts as demons being more in tune with her and stronger than Erdel's, so kicking in faster. Potion seemed to make her feel weak from pleasure, though, and she was content to just remain not moving, purring quietly in his hold, before in an adorable act of fondness she started licking Erdel's cheek lightly, as if trying to groom him like a cat would. It tickled, and vampire awoke with a faint chuckle, though he was dazed and came to him senses much slower, breathing in and out slowly, as if it instinctively made him feel nice to relax a little and take a deep breath, despite as a vampire he didn't need to breathe to survive.

[Mirach]

Svarik gave them a moment longer and then got up to caress Xia. "So was it nice?" he asked. "It does seem so..."

[VisAnastasis]

Xia leaned into his touch, purring and whistling lightly, as if howling and squealing in same time, feeling too nice not to share her pleasure with king even if she knew he couldn't understand demon language.
Erdel needed a touch longer to comprehend question, before he managed to somewhat focus his wondering look in Svarik's general direction and smiled with wonder.
" Did we really? Sleep? " He stuttered, still seeming quite dazed. " I more imagine this is what drugs feel like... Like being thrown in a river of soothing, pastel colors... It's like you close your eyes, and everything is just bright and warm, like streak of sunlight... Colors are so funny... You look funny, sir... Your hair is so silly... like.. liquid honey... like melted gold...  "

Yes - more than apparently, Erdel was still under the waning lingering  influence of the peculiar substance, as it seemed to make him both feel good more vividly, but also perceive world in more vivid, playful way that kept his mood high. In this state of touch dazed impair judgement, since king was just beside him, he just kind of spontaneously struggled and leaned toward king, and took one curl of Svarik's hair between two fingers, tilting head at it weakly with fascination and chuckling to himself goofily, like a man that for the first time in adulthood sees all colors of the rainbow, and truly, who knows what astonishing psychedelic colors beverage made him see playing in king's hair.

[Mirach]

Svarik chuckled. "I guess it wasn't really sleep then... You are the only one here who experienced both and can tell the difference."

[VisAnastasis]

" Like sleeping.. And not sleeping in the same time, I guess? Like being so dead drunk you see every color... Or like having a dream of being so dead drunk you see all the colors? " vampire chuckled confusedly playing with king's lock of hair. " A dream... I think... I guess, before I was unborn within my mother, kicking but not alive yet, I imagine it felt just like this... " he was mumbling wonderingly and sleepily. " Warmth and safety in which you can endlessly sleep, and sleep, and sleep and be nourished... Having dreams of infinite free space and colors before you have ever experienced or had glimpse of any color or felt air in your lungs... Dreaming of the all that beauty before it's darkened, free from knowing of any fear or danger... It's a weird dream... "  

[Mirach]

"It sounds very nice..." Svarik smiled. "Makes me wish I could try it. Although I don't need a drink to think my hair looks funny, it's enough to wake up in the morning..."

[VisAnastasis]

" Really? Come on, don't be silly. You are a good person. You always look good. " Erdel chuckled bemusedly, as if it was absurd to think it's otherwise, like it was some ever binding rule. He was grinning lightly while he awkwardly stretchedwhile sitting still,  and tried to rub his eyes to get more wakeful, by a bit funny way he moved, wavering like in the wind, and by uncharacteristic freedom of words before him with whom he was usually mostly hesitant to raise voice and too timid, it being apparent he was still quite under the influence of beverage that haven't died down yet. His form also seemed a touch less firm, as along the edges of his fingers and coat he seemed a little transparent, as if he was so cozy parts of him were slipping spontaneously into deeper layers

[Mirach]

Svarik chuckled, enjoying Erdel's spontaneity with him while it lasted. "That doesn't change the fact that my hair looks like a bird's nest when I wake up."

[VisAnastasis]

" No, it doesn't! " Erdel defended him, waving away fervently as if it was a matter of defending king's honor, it being such an endearing innocent gesture that, despite not understanding the words, Xia smiled at him. "  You are a meadow king! " vampire continued, exclaiming brightly, it being delight to hear a brighter than usual, warm tone of admiration in his voice. " Your hair's not like a bird's best, it's bright and lovely, like a dandelion in the spring! I will fight with anyone who dares suggest otherwise! "

[Mirach]

Svarik chuckled. "Alright then, I don't want to fight you. A dandelion, fine..."
