Re: I'M SORRY ANNETTE ;_;

[crumbs_and_yums]

Oh! Enough fussing it is, then.

[She jumps slightly at the growl, stepping back. Her voice remains steady after the initial exclamation, but only with some effort. She tries to remind herself that she expected he'd be on edge and upset.]

I'll...leave you be, Felix.

[That was stupid, Annette. Not the time, and you knew it.]

...feel better!

[bestswordmaster]

[For a second, he barely registers anything she said, taking a step or two past her until his brain catches up to his ears and he stops, face flushing faintly.]

Fuck. ...sorry, Annette.

[He turns back to face her, although his eyes are drifting even further than usual away from actually looking her in the eye. He's clutching the towel tightly, digging his fingers into it as though he could channel all of his frustration and irritation from his mind to the towel, somehow.]

I didn't... [He sighs sharply and then thinks maybe he ought to sit down, after all. But he can't do that now, he's got to stay on his feet until she leaves...he settles for leaning against the wall.] Didn't mean to snap at you.

[crumbs_and_yums]

[Well this isn't any better!]

No, no, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have tried to be so glib when you're down. You finally got the energy up to do something, and I'm just slowing you down. Go, do whatever you were going to do while you still have the strength, and just let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

[She glances at the towel.]

Well...after you're done.

I promise I'll try not to cheer you up if you don't want it!

[While she has noticed his flagging strength, she doesn't seem to realize the wall is holding him up, yet.]

[bestswordmaster]

Mhm. Okay.

[And then he just sort of...stands there, leaning on the wall and waiting for her to move on. Yup, he's totally fine. Definitely just hanging out here for...reasons. Reasons totally unrelated to feeling sick.]

[crumbs_and_yums]

[She stands aside, waiting solicitously for him to continue on before leaving. When he doesn't, she grows concerned.]

Felix? Are...you ok?

Do you need a hand?

[bestswordmaster]

No.

[That response comes quick and sharp, but then he slowly slides down the wall to sit on the floor.]

I don't know. Maybe. I guess.

[crumbs_and_yums]

Felix!

[She hesitates for a moment, then chooses to slide down the wall herself, until she is sitting next to Felix.]

Ok, towel please.

[She holds out her hand expectantly.]

When you're ready, we'll walk together. Onwards or back, up to you. Ok?
