Home at last|Sensatiamens, Sensatia

[kiyukit]

Alliset, finding herself once again in a strange place with people she didn't know, had carefully secreted herself into the nearest patch of shadows and begun praying to Worg for the sudden ability to become invisible. Though she was a normally calm and rational individual, the recent events had taken their toll on her mind.

[Devon]

"Oh my, how could I have been so careless." Xavier rubs his temples and glances over to Alliset and Ciel. Xavier now feeling a little better, stands up and approaches the two of them. "Thank you for helping my daughter and our friends, of course now that you are no longer in captivity you're free to do what you like. I'm sure there will be no problem with the two of you staying in Sensatia and if you need anything just ask."

[aivea]

Raphael sighs then sits up, not quite in the mood to refuse being patched up. Though he's a bit surprised that Timble was offering, and had thought that helping people was Divria's hobby not her other self's.

"all right..."

He reaches for the bandages, and once again inwardly curses having been deaged.

"You're welcome..." Ciel replies then scuffs at the ground with one foot. "May I ask you something?"

[Kender Bard]

While Timble quietly grumbles, it becomes clear that she's as confused as Raphael as to why she might be helping. "You sure did a number on yourself. Hero." She snorts softly. "Why do you have to be so proud and stubborn? Why didn't you let us help you?" Her voice was softening as it dropped in pitch to almost a whisper.

[Devon]

Xavier nods to Ciel. "Yes, go ahead and ask anything you want."

[aivea]

Ciel scuffs her shoe on the ground again before asking, "Do you have any advice on where to go from here? I don't feel ready to go back to Ilyamen and Talen'sul might not be much safer..."

Raphael rolls his eyes when Timble says the word "hero", but he answers anyway, "I just hate feeling like I owe people anything. Is that good enough?"

[Kender Bard]

NOW her voice was definitively very gentle and soft now. "You don't owe us anything," she remarked, and smiled at him, a familiar light back in her eyes. "You're my friend, Raphael. Friends help one another." She hugged him, carefully. "I'd never hold it over your head, and I'd have been very, very sad to have woken up and found out you were gone or dead."

[Devon]

Xavier scratches his head for a moment. "Uh, I'd have to talk to Master Thelon, but I'm sure if you wish to stay in Sensatia I can get it arranged."

[aivea]

"Um... could you do that?" asks Ciel, her wings fluttering slightly. "I'm not sure if Lord Thelon would be willing to see an outsider so suddenly."
_

Raphael tenses slightly when hugged, but notices the change in Timble. "Are you Divria or Timble? You're acting like Divria but Timble said she was out..." he asks. Shaking his head, he adds, "Well, I thought you and Xavier would."

[Kender Bard]

"I'm Divria," she squeaked happily. "Timble is nearly speechless with joy, that's why he went quiet. And of course I wouldn't. I wish you would trust me more. Is it because I'm young?"

[aivea]

Raphael shakes his head. "No, not because you're young. It just takes a while for me to begin to trust someone, regardless of age. Just give me a bit of time, all right?" He shrugs. "At any rate, Xavier's going to be thrilled you're back and Saber's probably not going to be able to look you in the eye for a while. That idiot isn't going to ask forgiveness, but he's going to blaim himself for everything."

[Devon]

"Sure I can do it. Thelon is an understanding man, given your circumstances I'm sure he'd have no problem letting you stay."

[aivea]

"Would you ask him? Please?" Ciel pleads.

[Kender Bard]

DT looked rather saddened at that. "Pff, moron. Timble, that isn't nice... Do you have any suggestions, Raphael?" She smirks in a.. very unchildlike way. "I mean, you know what it's like to be stubborn beyond all good reason. Surely you know the remedy."

[Devon]

"Of course of course.." Xavier closes his eyes and tries to contact Thelon. ~Excuse me Master Thelon, are you busy?~
