Holes and Patches [OPEN FREE FOR ALL]

After the battle, the warriors' task was over. Their job, for now, was to rest and recover for the time being.

The healers' job, on the other hand, was far from over. Some exhausted from the battle, others rotating in, they took to their bay and continued the process of treating the wounded. Some patients were free to leave in a few minutes, while others would have some time (or quite some time) on the cots. Their mission: relax. Stay as still as possible.

Unfortunately, the temptation of so many familiar faces alive and about would ultimately prove to be too great. Keeping track of this group was going to be a third task all its own.

[this is a free for all for all your injured! Have them socialize, be thorns in the medics' side, try to escape, or bring the medics together for some action. Just note in your post if you'd like a medic to visit your character---if not, it's time for a chat!]

Ronnae smiled, "Yeah, you could say that, and you're plenty strong love. In more ways than one." At the latter question, she looks up at him.

"They'd be more than happy that someone finally made me happy." She started, that was the most important thing and she knew that her parents would want nothing but her happiness. At her words she leaned up and kissed his lips lightly, a sweet promise that he in fact, made her very much happy.

"Mama would probably tease you to hell and back along with my other mama's, well except mama Naly, she'd probably be the one scolding them and telling them to back off." she laughed. "Papa would tant to talk... for a very long time. Get to know everything he can about you cause, well, he's very protective of me and all his children. I think their biggest thing would be wanting you to be more assertive? Secure and confident. Those things mean so much to the family, which is why all of them fuss so much over me... I lack those things unless I'm working in my workshop of in the fields of combat."

"You have to know what you want, and not let others deter you from that path. Stay true to yourself..."

That was what he expected. Billy could see the road ahead by now.

"I can handle an interrogation, don't worry. And...confidence, that's something I'm still working on, I know. But I'm going to work at it. At getting things done, leading, and fighting for our lives. To reunite with everyone we've lost."

Several painful images pass through his mind then---best friends, his own family, and the missing piece in his mind and heart. Billy fell quiet, remembering.

She looked at him concerned, was it something she said?

Her hand moved to caress his face gently, her bright teal eye focused on his own looking to try and figure what was wrong.

"I... are you okay love? Did I..."

"No it's my own fault," Billy was quick to say. "Just a temporary sadness. I'll work past it now. We still have so much to do, right? For example: getting home and sleeping in our own bed. This one's much more uncomfortable."

This probably wasn't the best time for his worries.

Ronnae started to open her mouth to complain many times, and just as many times she closed it again... If Billy didn't want to speak of it, then she figured he had his reasons to.

She pouted a bit inwardly, feeling a bit as if she failed him but shook her head nonetheless nuzzling against his chest and kissing over his heart. "Don' worry love, we'll be home soon. Then we'll be safe again."

"Ronnie?"

Billy curled himself more tightly around her, wondering if he'd done the right thing. She'd said to be more confident and assertive, right? Then discussing his insecurities was not a good idea. On the other hand, they'd also had a talk about being honest...and this was contradicting that. He wasn't quite sure where to go from here.

"I want to be here with you for a while---but of course we have our friends to worry about. And it's uncomfortable here. And there's really a lot to do, isn't there?"

Ronnae looked up at him innocently, her only current, uncovered eye studying him.

"I..." was he dismissing her? No, she doesn't believe her Billy ever would. That wasn't like him... "Y-yeah, you're right... Maybe I should go back to my cot and tell the medics I'm ready to leave? Then we can go check on everyone."

She looked uncertain of what she should say for a moment, the scene was a bit tense... "We s-should hope for a quick recovery so we can get back to work! There's m-much to do after all~" her voice didn't give away much. She was her usual chipper and optimistic self when she spoke her last words.

Billy cuddled her close, shaking his head. "No, I'm just talking---I don't know what I'm talking to, actually. Talking at, maybe. My mind's racing ahead of me."

It was distant now, wasn't it. He...wait her question. First. That. Yes.

"Are you ready to leave, though? I don't want to keep you if you don't want to---but I do---and now...ah..."

He stopped to think for a second. Had he been given anything that would warp his mind? Pain medication, maybe? That could be it.

"...could you look at my eyes? Are they out of focus at all?"

Ronnae stared at him confused for a long time. And for a few moments there was nothing but silence...

That was until she snickered, and soon thereafter started giggling. A cheerful giggle that soon turned into a bit of an embarrassing laugh as she tried her best to cover her mouth.

A hand went up caress his cheek as she wiped a giddy tear from her single exposed eye. "You're everywhere aren't ya sweetheart?" The question was more of a comforting one, her voice sweet and soft, almost a whisper.

She however followed suit, leaning up to look at his eyes. "They're focused of course, and they're alive, full of emotion and worry, just like a living person would be." She placed a kiss on each over the eyelids and settled her head on his pillow besides him.

"You know I'd love to just cuddle up and not move, enjoying your presence. But like ya said, we each have things to do, and our home is much more comfy than the medical cots." She snickered, "Maybe I should bring that up in the next meeting? Better medical equipment!"

For a few more moments, Billy worried that he'd said something wrong again. Had he said---oh, this was too much. He watched her, waited, and...her laughter was all the confirmation he needed that things were all right. Did he look goofy?

"So it's not the drugs..." he continued in an awed whisper, probably just as confusing as before. The little smile grew at her attention, growing until he snatched her close and held fast.

"Glad to hear it. I was worried. But...hey, you're right. We'll be better able to talk once we've sorted things and returned to our own bed. There are certainly less potential eavesdroppers there, unless Nokosi's around again."

It was clearly said out of affection for their friend.

Ronnae giggled and shook her head, nuzzling in the the renewed embrace.

"Of course he'll be there, isn't he always... though... he might be a bit preoccupied himself don'tcha think? I mean now with Kaya an' all." She grinned deviously.

"Right," Billy nodded, "though I haven't seen her either. All of this must have exhausted her."

Thinking of the two of them happened to bring back strange memories, and so he made a silly face. "Remind me to concentrate hard on mental shielding techniques, though."

[identity profile] ronnae.livejournal.com 2011-08-31 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
She tilted her head curiously, "Hm? Why so hun? Were you assaulted mentally while in battle?" She hadn't encountered those types down there, had she fought one of them however... she'd be a lot more injured... if here at all.

"No, thankfully." Feeling a little embarrassed about what he was about to admit, he shuffled closer---closer---and placed his lips on her ear to whisper.

"When we were together once, she...read my thoughts. Nothing of you, don't worry, but my feelings because I didn't shield strongly enough. I learned how to stop her the next day and it won't be a problem anymore, but I don't want to do the same to her."

[identity profile] ronnae.livejournal.com 2011-08-31 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh.... o-oh!" Her face went almost completely red, specially when her overactive imagination began to wonder what did she see exactly!

Ronnae looked very embarrassed, looking down shyly and fidgeting a bit. "I, I s-see, well.. a-ah.... I'm s-sure you'll b-be fine h-hun."

Billy was looking red-faced too. It hadn't been pleasant to realize that.

"I will. I'm not sure what they're even doing yet---not that it's any of my business---but it's good to prepare."

He smiled one more time, nuzzling into her shoulder. "It's not a worry now. So we'll go about things, we'll come home. And I'll be able to say everything then."

She gave him a mock, questioning look before sticking her small tongue out playfully and leaning up to nip at his nose.

"Okays then~ It's a date." She winked playfully.
