[action; locked to Saber]

[She was alive. She was alive, she was alive, and while not everything had followed his plan perfectly, she was alive and that was all Diarmuid cared about as the result of it. That was the best he could have hoped for, and now she was on her way to his hotel room--it was probably lucky Grainne wasn't around. He had already had a hell of a time explaining why he had come home bruised, bloody, and with at least two cracked ribs.]

[Whatever. Didn't matter. So what if moving caused him agonizing pain, she hadn't asked him to move. He needed to stay exactly where he was and wait, as he had promised he would. Just a few minutes more and all of this would have been made worthwhile as soon as he saw her face.]

[video]

[Much later, Diarmuid finally made a video post; probably less than a good idea, because then everyone could see how scratched up, bruised, and bandaged his fight with Maiya had left him. But despite all that, he seemed...oddly content.]

I missed my birthday. Shame, really...I'd hoped to celebrate it for the first time in quite a while. That's alright, it is not as if I've never ignored this before. I wonder, does this make me twenty-six or does it not count for someone like me?

[He shrugged, then seemed to immediately regret it judging by how he winced in pain.]

Ah, one more thing--how well do healing spells work on broken bones? [Calm and casual as ever.] Even a little would help, it's actually very difficult to move as I am now.

I suppose if I wish for it to be done, that I shall do it with my own hands. Come now, do not struggle too much.

[ Ahoge approaching... ]

Wai-wait a second, Arturia! It's just a few broken ribs, that's all!

I shall be the judge of that. [ With her medical degree earned in the field of battle. ] Now stop behaving as a child would and let me remove your vestments.

I am doing no such thing, now please cease with this immediately!

Diarmuid, you are behaving irrationally, leaving me to believe there is something you are trying to hide from me.

[ It's called his spear, Saber!! ]

I am hiding nothing, it merely seems uncalled for to take off more than just my shirt in this situation.

If I were injured, you would ask me to stripe all of my own clothing.

Th-that's not--! No more than was actually necessary!

And how am I to know what is necessary if you deny me a full glance?

Edited (SCREAMS...) 2012-04-28 06:35 (UTC)

I'm t-telling you, that's how!

Would it be easier if I were to strip down as well?

[ Not really getting the implications of this. ]

Quite the opposite, actually!

Are you certain? We could make a game out of it.

[ Why doesn't she get it? ]

A-Arturia, please...

[ He could always distract her with food.

Or Pounce. ]

You are making it difficult to help you.

Please just trust me. All that's really injured is covered by my shirt, so that is all I need to remove.

[ Guess who's getting tiny hands across his shirt as she tries to unbutton it. ]

Then allow me.

[f-ffffffffff--]

A...alright.

[ Being stripped down by a little girl. HOW DOES IT FEEL... ]

Diarmuid, who did this to you?

It was just a fight. I was caught off guard and...may have been under some collapsing architecture.

Diarmuid...

[ Just going to gently prod around his chest. ]

Would it be better if we both just rested for the time being?

[sdfghjgf WOMAN STOP POKING JFC]

Y...yes, that might be the best course of action.

May I lay with you? It might be easier for both of us if we remained close for a few days. [ Averting her gaze just slightly. ] To make up for loss time that is.

O...of course. You know I could not refuse that.

[boy this is gonna be tricky to explain to that wife of yours]

[ Her boyfriend already knows she's a snuggler. When one has a tiny body, it feels nice to be protected every once in a while. Bounding over towards the bed, she practically flings herself onto it, eager to rest. ]

My apologies for being so exhausted. [ Brushing her hair away from her face, she'll stare up at him. ] It is difficult to come back from the dead after all.
