fight for your right

my name is x. it's short for x.

      Apollo had noticed the lack of herbs in the apothecary’s cave and had decided to head out for a bit. While his concentration remained on what had caused the earth to shake, on the inhabitants that had surrounded their lands, he could not distract himself from the duty he had with his people. Handing over a handcrafted fur bag, he smiled. “I brought some things for you.”

X’s eyes widened at the boy’s offering. They took the bag from his hand and peered inside, seeing many things they were out of. Since the strange occurances had been happening, they’d been wary of going out. Apollo, obviously, was a little more adventurous. They looked up at him, “What do I owe you?”

Calliope didn’t speak, simply lifting in an eyebrow in the face of the girl’s words. She took a breath, almost as if it was inconvenient that the girl in front of her couldn’t just read her mind and lifted the material covering her torso. Just to the left of her belly button was a large gash - she had come tumbling down from a tree a little too quickly, and had scraped her belly along one of the sharp branches. She could barely feel the wound, but she knew if she left it for too long it would be infected - and she would be an idiot if she hadn’t learned her lesson from last time she hadn’t taken care of an open wound. Calliope looked at X expectantly, letting her shirt fall back down over her skin.

X leaned forward to examine the wound. It wasn’t deep enough to require any kind of stitching, so they nodded and retreated to the back. When they found what they were looking for, a plant that helped fight infection, they placed it in a small bag and returned to the girl. “Here you go. Break it apart and rub the liquid on the wound twice a day. Did anything possibly poisonous scratch you?”

“What do you need? Weather’s been dry so I ain’t got much but I’ll see what I can do.” X leaned against the makeshift doorway they made outside of the cavern that hosted their little pharmacy and eyed the other wearily.
