Bandages

{~🌹  Dimitry can’t help the subtle wince as he tries to finish getting the blood off him, he needs to wrap them as soon as possible. Not actually any deep flesh wounds, but one of them held a knife and got some slashes in, but he was quicker on his feet than people originally think.

  Still a few blows to his head, back and chest took a lot out of him, and the lack of air as he ran caused bruises as well as scrapes on his knees. 

  Aching all over, still, he  makes sure the wounds are at least clean before starting to drain the water, grunting softly he moves to stand when a hand moves out to grasp his arm to help him out.

  Rusty eyes shift quickly toward the other, and he looks at the other in almost shame at being found in such a state. 

      “Ferdinand. I-I’m sorry.     I’m done, I can take care    of this on my own.”

  Giving the other a subtle smile, the split lip on his lips making it look swollen and red.  🌹~}

Her plan had almost worked. For weeks she had been plotting her escape from the palace, studying every way out, memorizing the guard’s schedule, mapping what parts of the streets she could see from the balconies. She had it all planned, her one chance at freedom. And then it was ruined because a suitor decided to arrive a day early.

Still, let it never be said that the Princess of Agrabah wasn’t a fast thinker. A simple, hooded cloak taken from one of her maids had allowed her to blend into the crowds well enough so far. But her plan to make it to the coast and charter a ship was out; the guards would be watching the docks by now, no doubt. So that meant she had to leave the kingdom by slower means: horse or camel. Or join a caravan.

She was near the outskirts of the city, debating her choices. She had enough money for bribes and provisions, but she had to decide how best to use it. Pulling the hood of her cloak down a little lower, she ducked into a decent looking tavern, hoping to find it clear of guards and full of travelers you could speak to.
