video - late evening 5/7

[He has had enough time since his arrival this morning get just enough rest to allow himself to clean himself up and calm down so he might return to the now empty house located in the level three housing district. When he reaches out to the troll it's late enough that Anduin can only hope he won't be interrupting anything important like sleep or ... nope Anduin does not want to think about that right now. ]

Signless? If you are there and available it is Anduin.

[And here he had tried to hide the dark circles around his eyes and the sadness in his look. Still he will try not to let the other worry any more than he has. So he speaks slowly albeit softly.]

I am fine. It's been a while ... for me that is. A few weeks home and only two days here. It all seems quite surreal.

[Signless's voice causes him to freeze into place, even though all that is said at first is his name he recognizes the tone that has been employed. It is one he has used often, wise beyond it's years, and knowing.

It takes him a moment longer to respond, his words forming into answer that is sadly lacking.]


It has been a long day.

[He can not lie to Signless, but his explanation is poor.]

[Food? As if on cue his stomach rumbles out in protest. He has not eaten since before the trial earlier in the morning. Since then he has expelled a great deal of energy fighting and healing.]

No... I'm afraid I have not thought about it until now, but please it was not my intent to trouble you. I called to apologize about missing our lesson.

Signless...

[He sighs the troll's name gratefully.]

I would hate to impose on your friends, but you would be welcome to come over. I will have the house to myself for some time.

[Forever.]

I'll do my best so please take your time.

[It'll give him time to ... sit, pace, or at the very least drag a few blankets from the unused bedroom down to the living room for them to make use of while they're on the couch.]

[Anduin does not have to walk far to open the door, thanks to his pacing he is just a few steps away. He greets Signless with a weak smile and eyes that are hidden behind still damp hair. He looks better than he did earlier when he arrived back in Ariel, but it is fairly easy to improve when you are covered in blood. He motions for Signless to enter, the house is dark save for the light in the living room beyond him and the couch shows signs of minimal use thanks to the blanket and open book he had tried to use as a distraction earlier while he waited.]

Thanks for coming.

[He is not certain he sounds grateful enough for the troll's kind actions.]

[Anduin stands still at the initial embrace not so much surprised, but taken aback by the way he is taken off guard by the warmth and weight of the troll's form. Anduin knows he should be far from surprised, but his memories of Ariel were muddled nothing more than a dream and now he's reminded that it has been weeks since he could last remember feeling this.]

Food?

[He responds distractedly as his shoulders slump in protest at the loss of physical contact.]

So long as you will join me I promise to do my best.

[He motions towards the couch.]

Can I offer you something to drink?

[That earns a tired laugh.]

I assure you I have had plenty of attention given to me these last weeks. I would welcome the break.

[Of course, in hindsight now that he can recall the last few months he spent away in Ariel he regrets not enjoying the last few weeks he spent back at his father's side more. The trial had laid him bare emotionally and it's climax had ensured he would be feeling the physical effects for at least the next few days as things healed.]

What did you bring?

[The question is spoken to not only distract himself, but the Troll from worrying any more than he already is.]

Excuse me, I just realized I have no icons.

[personal profile] whitepawn 2014-06-17 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds great.

[Above all else it sounds simple. He could use that right now, but he's also not about to leave Signless wanting. At the couch he does not sit, instead he touches the troll's shoulder before withdrawing towards the kitchen. He allows his tired expression to speak for him, he won't be gone long and he comes back in just a few moments with a pair of glasses filled with water for them to drink. He sets them down and eases back to rest besides Signless.]

Perfect, even.

[He adds and for once finds it easier for his lips to curl into a small smile as his eyes take over the site of the food and the smell of the warm soup.]

Yup. All fixed now.

[personal profile] whitepawn 2014-06-17 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
[A bit of his sandwich and a sip of his soup and he lets out a softer sound, pleased by the taste and the rush of relief that eating brings to him. The food compared to what he's been having back in pandaria lacks the usual spice and richness, but the fact that it was brought to him by Signless is what makes it so refreshing.]

It's good too.

[He speaks between bites, sandwich rising to his mouth several times in succession as he chews and swallows it down. Before even he realizes it the sandwich has been nearly devoured.]

I suppose I was hungrier than I realized.

[His head bows his head a little closer to what remains of his sandwich in acknowledgement, cheeks taking on a pale shade of red out of embarrassment. In this case the bites from earlier have done more to ground him than other things he's done since he returned. Aside from the shower earlier this is his first real chance to wind down and recover the energy he lost earlier from fighting and saving lives.]

At this rate I do not believe you will have to worry over that.

[In truth he should be eating a small feast and maybe sleep for a few days, but Anduin knew at the moment he could afford no such luxury. He finishes the sandwich in another few quick bites and then reaches forward to cup his hands around the base of the soup bowl. He sighs thankfully, cradling the bowl and just enjoys the way the warmth feels against his palms.]

Looking back now I thought I would be happier to go home.
