Testing Humanity (1x1) [Telios and SaphireTsuki)

[SaphireTsuki]

Selena frowned, but lifted him up over her shoulder, carrying him like one would a drunkard, and headed for their dorm. Yes, he was going through normal adjustments.

 

[Telios]

Telas stayed limp and unconscious over Selena. The warmth was also apparent for her but not as much.

 

[SaphireTsuki]

A soft warmth in her chest, but she continued on to their room, wanting to protect him as best she could. Even if this was all, to an extent, her fault she wanted to be there for him.

 

[Telios]

Telas regained consciousness a while after and he slowly scanned his surrounding. His 'fever' was still there, making it hard to do anything. He recognized that he was in their suite.

 

[SaphireTsuki]

Selena had set him down on a couch and was making some warm milk, hoping that it might help him calm down. She felt bad for him, thinking somehow that it was her fault for him feeling so bad.

 

[Telios]

Telas just stayed still on his bed, trying to rest.

 

[SaphireTsuki]

Selena, returning with two cups, resting on a platter. It wasn't that hard, but she had to lightly tap on the door with her foot. "I've got some warm milk, Telas. Are you awake?" It was the closest to as apology she could reasonably ask him to accept.

 

[Telios]

"I am..." Telas answered, slowly sitting up on the couch. His body felt hot and heavy, hard to move but not impossible.

 

[SaphireTsuki]

She nodded, walking over and taking a seat next to him. "Here's some warm milk... might help." She placed the platter down on the small table in front of them. Once she had done so her two hands met, a nervous tic making her wring her fingers together.

 

[Telios]

"Don't get too worried about me, ok...?" Telas asked as he picked up a cup, looking over to Selena. He sipped some of the milk, trying to ease his 'fever'.

 

[SaphireTsuki]

Now she began to play with her lip, tooth meeting the skin as she nodded. A deep breath and she said, almost timidly, "I-it's normal, what you're going through." One hand grabbed the other cup, shaking slightly.

 

[Telios]

"I heard that Sir Markus had gone through this as well..." Telas said,a dressing the first human to be changed to a Roronian. "He said it was hard but it was worth it... I'm thinking the same..." He said before sipping his milk.

 

[SaphireTsuki]

A nod, "Yes... he never seemed to regret it." A small smile, as though remembering something fond, but it quickly dropped to a normal look. "I... I hope you don't come to regret it."

 

[Telios]

"I won't... I promise... I had nothing to lose anyways...." Telas said with a smile, finishing his cup of milk.

 

[SaphireTsuki]

"If you're certain." A breath, then... "It... the problem should fade after a week."

 

[Telios]

"After a week...? I guess I can deal with that..." Telas said, leaning back to the couch

 

[SaphireTsuki]

A small nod, "I'll make sure to bring your work." Because he couldn't afford to turn it in late so early in the semester.

 

[Telios]

"Thanks..." Telas nodded with a smile.

 

[SaphireTsuki]

A nod, her hands now resting comfortably on her lap, Selena resisted the urge to lean into him. He didn't need it, after all. "You're welcome."

 

[Telios]

Telas slowly leaned on Selena. He somehow always felt calm and comforting being like this. Accidentally he touched the ridge behind her forearm again.

 

[SaphireTsuki]

Selena had been surprised when he leaned on her, but quickly dropped back into the state of utter relaxation unique to her kind... all because of yet another random, accidental touch. She drooped back into the couch, hand slipping from the cup she'd been holding, though hadn't moved from the table, to land heavily at her side. The smallest of smiles, more a curving of her lips than anything else, and her eyes lidded over slightly.

 

[Telios]

Telas just stayed next to Selena, leaning close to her.

 

[SaphireTsuki]

Selena let herself, due to the relaxation melting her mind, drop her head on top of his shoulder. Each tiny movement of his was rubbing against the ridge, making it harder for her to think or act, since her arm was still just away enough for him to touch it with his torso.

 

[Telios]

Telas soon drifted off asleep again. He stayed close to Selena but didn't touch the ridge anymore, allowing her to move.

 

[SaphireTsuki]

Selena lay there for a while, her mind and body slowly rousing, when she could move her arms again she began to lightly pet his hair. Once she was able to move around again she gently lowered him onto the couch, moving him into what she hoped was a comfortable position. Having finished that she stretched and went into the kitchen to begin work on their dinner.
