[CHATLOG] Arm
In which Arthur arrives a little too late for Adessa’s arm surgery.
Arthur Kinlay rushes into the clinic panting. His eyes scanning the room for Adessa. "Dessa?!" He looks relieved when he sees her on a nearby cot, his shoulders slumping. "Oh thank the stars. You alright?"
Adessa Cypersong's ears are pinned back and she's /already/ itching at a newly laid cast on her left arm. Her ears turn to him when he comes in and she grins. "Oh. Hi Artur."
Adessa Cypersong holds up the arm. Sort of. "Look. I am to being fix now."
Arthur Kinlay wrinkles his nose at her, walking the remaining distance between them to take a closer look. "Just couldn't wait for Corvic to break it for you, huh?"
Adessa Cypersong shakes her head and tuts at him. "I am HELPING Doctor Corvic by to be breaking the thing again. It is saving time, yes?"
Arthur Kinlay squints at her, reaching out to poke her forehead lightly. "Somehow I doubt that was the goal."
Adessa Cypersong grins and does her best to poke at his forehead too. "No. But I am to be helping Sticky, and so helping Doctor Corvic also. AND talking to Kyrize!"
Arthur Kinlay cants his head. "...who's sticky?"
Adessa Cypersong: Sticky! A friend of Wylion. I am thinking. Maybe a friend of Rigena. A friend of Sticky, he is to be hurting, and Sticky is to be taking me to see his friend. Then, a friend of Sticky's friend is getting scared, and I am to be helping him.
Adessa Cypersong returns to itching her cast, but she's all grins. "And then, friend of sticky's friend is turning out to be an untrained esper. And he is to be setting his mindpet on me. On accident."
Arthur Kinlay's expression goes flat. "On accident."
Adessa Cypersong nods. "Mmmhmm! Friend of Sticky's friend, he is very young. Probably, he is not knowing how to be control the thing."
Arthur Kinlay: ..is that how you broke your arm?
Adessa Cypersong: Yep. I am trying to be calming down friend of Sticky's friend.
Arthur Kinlay pinches the bridge of his nose, clearly not liking what he's hearing, and mutters under his breath. "Oh for... bloody- .." He breathes deeply through his nose. "...but you're alright now, yeah? Corvic set your arm right?"
Adessa Cypersong nods again. If she hears his frustration, she's pointedly ignoring it. "Yes! Sticky, he is trying to be healing it with esper magic but Doctor Corvic is scaring me and it is getting worse. Now it is okay. Doctor Corvic is not even yelling at me for shooting the other day. It is a good day, today."
Arthur Kinlay snorts. "I think you splitting your arm in two beat some minor rebellious shooting."
Adessa Cypersong raises her eyebrows at him. "Minor! I am to be shooting that guy so good!" She does a pew pew motion with her good hand.
Arthur Kinlay snickers. "Figure of speech... you DID put up a damn good fight back there, yeah."
Adessa Cypersong pats herself on the back and beams. "Be watching out. I am to be dangerous."
Arthur Kinlay smirks. "Soo dangerous. The -most- dangerous."
Adessa Cypersong hops off of the cot. "It is a good thing you are not seeing me fighting the pumera, then. I am not doing so well."
Arthur Kinlay frowns a bit. "...I'm... going to not ask too many question and just be really, really thankful that you got here and that you're fine now..." He sigh and looks around. "So you spoke to Kyrize? How's he doing?"
Adessa Cypersong cants her head at him and furrows her eyebrows like she can't understand why he would be angry. "He is good. Awake, now! He is asking me for the dating advices. He is saying when we are getting a lead, next?"
Arthur Kinlay: ...dating advices?
Adessa Cypersong: Uh huh! For Wylion.
Arthur Kinlay snickers a bit. "Oh really? What'd he say? What'd -you' say?
Adessa Cypersong puffs her chest out importantly. "I am knowing nothing about dates. I am going on many, many bad dates and -some- good ones. But I am acting as very good date person with Kyrize. Wylion, she is liking being high up so I am telling him, be taking her climbing. On his roof, maybe, with food."
Arthur Kinlay's snicker turns into a soft chuckle. "Hm.. that's not a bad idea actually, she might like that. Glad to know that Ky's looking to get more serious with Wyl."
Adessa Cypersong grins and puts one arm behind her back, rocking from side to side. "Yep. He is saying he owes her TWO dates. At least. Rigena, she is saying they is to be getting Joined. She is thinking we are to be sisters, which is silly. -Kyrize- does not know she is saying this thing."
Adessa Cypersong's grin turns HIGHLY MISCHIEVOUS.
Arthur Kinlay smirks. "That'll be something... and you two could pass for sisters. I mean, you act like it! When you're not taking turns playing mom." He chuckles again.
Adessa Cypersong rolls her eyes at him and grins. "Wylion -wishes-. Oh! And Rigena, she is helping many of the slaves we is saving, also. So everything is everything, for now!"
Arthur Kinlay nods, reaching out to mess with her hair a bit. "Yes... for now, everything's fine. That's great of Rigena."
Adessa Cypersong purrs at the attention. Yes. Give me attention. I am a flawless being. "Mmhm. I am liking Rigena, very much." She takes his hand off of the top of her head and kisses his finger. "What we are hearing about Redstar, now? Anything yet?"
Arthur Kinlay wiggles his fingers playfully when she takes them. "Hm, nothing just yet... we did strike them a solid blow though so I'm pretty sure they'll be highly annoyed with us at the very least. I got a feeling we'll hear about them soon..."
Adessa Cypersong wrinkles her nose. "Good. Letting them be angry."
Arthur Kinlay: Mhm... might be a good idea to get your boat fixed soon.
Adessa Cypersong nods. "Yeah. Wylion, she is to be doing things with it. And I am sneaking out, sometimes, and doing things also." She gnaws very gently on one finger, the epitome of innocence. "... Sometimes. Not many things." She pauses again. "...Many things."
Arthur Kinlay rolls his eyes over dramatically. "You didn't need to sneak out to go there... I'll see if I can't find some time to help out with it too."
Adessa Cypersong grins and gives his hand back to him. "Yes. This is good! I am finding -many- new things there! You are needing to see it!"
Arthur Kinlay: Hmm? What sort of things?
Adessa Cypersong tilts her head from side to side. "Stuff. I am to be using the sheets. And we is putting down a better floor, also. I am buying -many- pillows and things, so it is looking like a normal house now."
Arthur Kinlay nods, smiling. "I'll have to go take a look then, see what still needs to be done."
Adessa Cypersong: Yes! You can be helping with the heavy things! I am not having many heavy thing, but maybe you is to be helping with tables and couches? And also, maybe putting the masks up. If they is not to be biting you first.
Adessa Cypersong looks like she's considering him getting bitten by soulless masks VERY SERIOUSLY.
Arthur Kinlay flexes one arm, slapping his bicep with his other hand. "That's me, Mr. Heavy lifter." He chuckles. "I can help with that, yeah, no problem."
Adessa Cypersong bats her eyes up at him and smirks. "Do not be doing that arm thing," she scolds him. "We is also to be putting up a TIRE SWING, Artur!"
Arthur Kinlay sniffs. "Pft, what's wrong with my arm thing?"
Adessa Cypersong: Nothing! It is excellent! This is the problem!
Adessa Cypersong blinks up at him. "Oooh, do you thinking Nika, maybe she will be helping also? I can be telling Nika about the boat?"
Arthur Kinlay rubs the back of his head. "Hmm, don't know if she'll want to help with that sort of work, but sure, you can tell her."
Adessa Cypersong shrugs her shoulders. "Maybe she is to be supervising, then."
Arthur Kinlay chuckles. "Supervisor Nika, sounds about right."
Adessa Cypersong returns to scratching at her cast. "But, if I cannot be telling the Jabbits, I probably should not be telling Nika."
Arthur Kinlay scratches his beard, brow furrowing in thought. "...I don't think it'd be so bad if the Jabbits knew... so long as they don't bring any 'work' to the place, you know?
Adessa Cypersong sticks her tongue out at him. "See. I am telling you, they is not so bad."
Arthur Kinlay wrinkles his nose. "Yeah yeaaah... go on, bask in it." He reaches out and lightly flicks her nose. "Watch that tongue though, else someone's gonna catch it."
Adessa Cypersong snickers. "No one is to be catching my tongue. It is to be too fast moving."
Arthur Kinlay raises a brow, looking dubious. "Huh uh... almost sounds like a challenge."
Adessa Cypersong puts her good hand on her hip. "I am to be the best swimmer, the fastest climber, the best medicine woman, and the smoothest talker. Maybe, I am to be the best hunter if Myrnica is not to be hunting anymore." She sticks her tongue out again. Toootally a challenge.
Arthur Kinlay smirks. "Pretty big claims..." He quickly leans down when she sticks her tongue out again, lifting her chin with a finger to steal a kiss.
Adessa Cypersong grins when he kisses her, grabbing his face with her good hand to keep him there. "Ha. My plan, it is working." she teases him.
Arthur Kinlay smirks against her lips. "Look at you, so clever."
Adessa Cypersong rests her forehead on his, beaming. "I am to be the MOST clever. I am adding this to my list."
Arthur Kinlay grins. "How about most beautiful? Most adorable?" He snickers and kisses her nose. "No one would buy most humble, though."
Adessa Cypersong rolls her eyes "Most beautiful, this is a stretch. But I am to be SO humble. Sooo humble, Artur. Sometimes. Few times. Not many times."
Arthur Kinlay laughs. "Definitely not many times..." He gently cups her cheek, brushing it with his thumb. "Don't think the other one's a stretch, though."
Adessa Cypersong beams up at him and narrows her eyes. "What I am telling you about being nice to me?"
Arthur Kinlay: Hrm, that I should totally keep doing it?
Adessa Cypersong sighs dramatically like her life is suffering, still grinning. She flicks his nose. "You is to be in -serious trouble- one of these days, Artur."
Arthur Kinlay sigh and shrugs like a man resigned to his fate. "I guess there's no avoiding it."
Adessa Cypersong tilts her head and grins at him, pupils dilating. "Nope. You is just to be lucky this way." She snickers. "And Wylion is to be hearing all about it and be -miserable."
Arthur Kinlay clicks his tongue. "Poor Wyl's never gonna hear the end of it, huh?" He blinks. "..wait.. hear all about what exactly?" He raises a brow.
Adessa Cypersong continues snickering, only louder now. She waggles her eyebrows at him and grabs his hand. "We is to be going home, now?"
Arthur Kinlay rolls his eyes. "You do have a way to avoid questions, don't you?" If he's bothered by that fact he doesn't actually let it show, giving her hand a squeeze. "Got permission to leave from Corvic?"
Adessa Cypersong nods. "Uh huh! No heavy liftings, but going home, this is okay."
Arthur Kinlay smiles. "Good. Leave the heavy lifting to me then." As if to put word into action, he scoops her up, careful not to bump her wounded arm in the process.
