{ ; hey all! I’ve decided this Xion would work better as a sideblog/verse for my other Xion blog, evanescentide!! So I’m archiving this blog and moving house~

That being said, I’d like to keep all of Xi’s current relationships (provided you guys also want to pick up where we left off) so please follow me on evanescentide and let me know you’d like to continue our stuff! 

That did get a small chuckle out of Aqua.  “You’re welcome,” Aqua stood up from her seat at the edge of the bed, and took the bowl of water she’d been using with her. “Try to get some rest, afterwards we can talk some more.” She did an excellent job of masking her true expression. She was far from feeling at peace at the moment.  What she was really worried about, on top of the fever, was why this young girl wore that coat.

❋ Aqua didn’t have to tell Xion that twice --- Xion barely closed her eyes before she was out like a light. It would be hours before she was lucid again, with any other mumbled thoughts coming out disjointed and confused.

“I’m okay, really, but... please, don’t... forget...” She inhaled deeply and gave a cough. “...I miss ice cream.”

In response to the wincing, Aqua drew the blanket she had around Xion a little tighter.  “You say unruly, I say… windswept,” She suggested cheerfully. “Every lick and curl from looking fearlessly into the wind.“ She swept a careful hand through Xion’s hair.  “I think its lovely.”

❋ Xion clearly didn’t know what to say, so she instead simply watched Aqua with big, sky blue eyes as she was cared for.  “...My old hair didn’t break combs, though.” The mumbled addition was meant as a joke, if her quiet laugh was anything to go by, but another fit of coughs followed it.

At least master Aqua had found Xion right when this fever set in. She would’ve been in big trouble if she’d gotten lost while in this half-delirious state. As Xi tugged the blankets closer, she gave a little smile up at the older woman.
