Aron the Aron
Lord Commissar Secretary of Floor Gang
"I'm sorry." Accepting the scolding, she apologized again as Xeria continued to reprimand her. She let Xeria pull away easily and weakly blinked in reaction to the chop delivered to her her head, not dodging or catching the hand as she let the witch do whatever. Or couldn't stop her, with the blank face of the summon it was difficult to tell what feelings lay behind her abyssal eyes. "I didn't know." Was all she responded with to Xeria's reasonable claims and question, looking down and to the right as she let the fledgling witch continue. Or, well, she meant to, but the rampage seemed to have tapered off with Xeria calming down, and Kuroi slowly drew her gaze back to observe Xeria from under the cover of some disheveled strands of black hair, looking for her expression and trying to read the unexpected mood. The overly dim light in the room cast deep shadows over both of them, and Kuroi's eyes and senses were struggling enough through the confusion without the further disadvantage.
"Next time, you tell me if you start feeling unwell, okay?" With Kuroi awake, Xeria felt comfortable enough with letting some light return to the room so they could properly see. A quick snap of her fingers and a spell under her breath brought life back to the one candle that sat on her nightstand, enough that each could see the state that the other was in. Kuroi looked like someone who had nearly drowned, with her stringy hair and skin glistening with leftover water that Xeria neglected to wipe off. The Witch herself was nearly as indecent as her summon though; her nightdress was practically lingerie with how transparent it had become, and her scruffy appearance meant parts of her already disastrous hair had conspicuous flaps and curls.
If Kuroi didn't already know better, the outrageous flaps of hair Xeria sported could've been mistaken for cat ears... Was it bad that Xeria looked good with imagined cat ears?
"Whew; it's almost gone cold, but it's still good enough to eat." Xeria had completely forgotten about the wooden plate of fish and vegetables that she left on the nightstand! Thankfully it was still warm enough to safely eat. "Here... I got you something from the kitchens earlier today since you weren't waking up all day. I figured you needed something light since you once you did though..." Xeria was fairly obvious at her attempts to remain chivalrous and not ogle; several times she had to take her gaze to some random part of her room or the platter she was holding. "Um... I'll get a cloth to dry you off, and maybe put my coat over your shoulders until I figure out where I put your clothes..."
