"w—well, but i didn't! so, all good right?" well, technically she did but those wounds were already healing, so mentioning them would only be idiotic, right? should she even care that much about her own preservation if her regenerative powers did the trick? of course, the pain electrifying her nerve endings remained the same but it should not matter. right after finishing her half-hearted excuse would a cough escape her throat, puffing into the air with a tiny cloud of soot. one of her hands immediately shot up in embarrassment, fingertips kissed by the residual ash. meanwhile, an incessant meowing would fill the awkward silence between the two whilst she kept her other hand on the tiny feline covered in dark smoke.

"and the cuts are already healing, so — don't you worry your pretty head." the divinity waved dismissively with a small smile tugging at her features. alas, she immediately froze whilst hearing the burning building behind them collapse in itself. "oh . . . " even the cat was silenced whilst she slowly turned her head to see the catastrophe that had unfolded. had she been a bit slower, there might have not been anything worth healing. a nervous chuckle slips from her lips whilst facing quincy once again, holding the small feline into his face in order to distract him. "don't look at anything going on behind me, just look at the cat! look at the cat, quincy!" its soot-covered paws reached for the blonde, meowing whilst remaining in the divinity's grasp. "should i keep him? or maybe you? he seems like a stray . . . maybe we should get him cleaned up first, hm?"

Rei vc : and here I thought I had problems

the words take the possum by surprise , pale eyes widening , blinking rapidly as they turn to kuya , one moment innocently admiring the stars , eating a yogurt cup of all things , the next .. the fox goes & says something like that !

patch's face flushes , & immediately he leans to kuya , hiding his face in the other's chest . “ where --- did that come from .. ? ” softly , quivering almost , “ i .. i like being with you . all the time . you make my life worth livin' . ”

@grantsuccor sent a letter: " i've dealt with worse wounds . . . this is nothing. " - quincy + lillia !

child of the forest, lillia is a gentle plum bud fluttering from the trees above and just as fleeting; her presence is known by few just like the myths that exist only in words and songs of her name. but here she finds herself stooped before the stranger, eyes fraught with worry and even her dream spells can do little to ease the pain. it's as if she's swallowed her voice alongside her nerves when she regards him with a panicked sound; perhaps acting is far from her strong suit... but mother tree speaks of love and devotion, of care and tenderness, and the lessons are not lost on her despite how little she can hear or think beyond the loud heartbeat in her ears.

her hands are gentle though grow in force when she presses on his wound, hoping to staunch the blood beneath the herbs that bloom around her; earth is kind to those who are reverent to her and lillia has earned the highest honors. medicinal fauna are plucked from the medicinal kit that grows at their feet and she does her best to crush it to a paste in her hands despite the sheer amount of blood leaking between her fingers.

unprompted ask // always accepting !! ❛ if you have nothing to hide , what’s the problem ? ❜ / from kuya ! ( @grantsuccor )

he     was     sprawled     upon     the     grass,     his     form     an     emblem     of     languid     repose     amidst     the     woodland's     embrace,     with     the     somber     hues     of     the     season     enveloping     him     like     a     melancholic     shroud.          the     whispering     leaves          (     touched     by     the     hand     of     imminent     decay     )          cradled     his     contemplations     in     their     gentle     sighs          ⸻          the     scent     of     autumn     hung     heavy     in     the     air,     a     heady     cocktail     of     crisp     foliage     and     the     earthy     remnants     of     summer's     wane.

yet,     whilst     he     savoured     the     solitude     of     the     woods,     a     familiar     and     intoxicating     scent     suddenly     jazzed     upon     the     breeze:     an     aroma     he     had     known     so     intimately,     mingled     with     a     complicated     bond     that     had     long     defined     their     tangled     connection.          he     turned     his     aureate     gaze     towards     the     approaching     figure,     drawn     from     the     recesses     of     the     forest          [     …     ]          he     emerged     with     lineaments     a     breathtaking     masterpiece     sculpted     by     the     gods,     alluring     and     unsettling,     like     the     bewitching     pull     of     a     forbidden     fruit.

he's quiet , touching the bandage on their forehead , wincing softly . that's what they get for not paying attention while cleaning . still , patch is proud of themselves for even patching the cut . he walks through the brush somewhat distracted , knowing the path to @grantsuccor now like the back of his hand -- pausing only when they see a bush filled with cloudberries -- eyes widen & immediately they make a b-line , positive kuya would love these sweet, tarte berries .
