Icarus watched as the younger eagle was herded back to the nest. She smiled some and went over, sitting in the nest with the younger eagle. "Hey there. Were you just lonely? I bet you were. Come sit with me. I'll keep you nice and warm." she said, patting her lap before pulling out her knife and starting to carve at the bone.

The two sibling eagles cuddled up to Icarus' side, cooing at her softly and nuzzling her side. There were feathers all around the next, and cracked eggs, and more bones. The usual roost for eagles.

Icarus smiled and leaned against the bigger one as she kept the smaller one on her lap. She soon finished the whistle, having made it look like an eagle. It was very glorious and majestic. The girl then took some of the feathers and tied them to the end. She smiled and began to play a few little tunes on it. It had a nice sound to it. And it put the girl right to sleep. She fell asleep between the eagles, snoozing contently.

The eagles kept careful guard of their new friend against the shadows that threatened the outside of the cave. They shooed them away with flaps of their wings, letting the girl sleep peacefully.

Icarus slept until morning. The sun shone in over her, making her groan and sit up a little, yawning. She glanced around some, remembering she had fallen asleep between two eagles she had made friends with. She yawned again and headed out onto the cliff and stretched, soaking in the warm morning rays.

The larger eagle was basking in the sunshine outside on the cliff, waiting for Icarus to want to go home. He ruffled his feathers and stared out into the wilderness around his home.

Icarus sighed and looked to the eagle. He was probably waiting to take her back. She kind of didn't want to leave. But she had to. So the girl made sure she had her knife and her whistle before climbing onto the large eagle. "Alright buddy. Take me back." she said, patting the bird's neck softly.

The eagle flew Icarus back, giving her a similar ride to the night before and cawing happily into the wind. When he landed at Mesilici, he dropped her off in the gardens, nuzzling her with his beak before cawing and taking off back into the world again.
Meanwhile, Benjamin was just waking up. He thought about just slapping on a pair of jeans and t-shirt, since the first four classes had been canceled for the day because of the trauma of the night before. Only classes after lunch would be in session. But then he remembered that if he slummed to breakfast then he wouldn't look good for Sophia!

Icarus smiled and pet the eagle before it flew back to its domain, the wild. She sighed softly and went back inside and to her room. Where she found it quite birdlike. The bed had more of a nest look, the dragons having taken to it. There were pictures of exotic birds all around and her ceiling was the best part. It looks almost like the sky above. It looked so real...

Benjamin found that there were several combs and actually a bottle of cologne in his bathroom that he'd not known about. He put on a button down instead of a t-shirt, and some black jeans that didn't really look like jeans, before struggling with his wet hair to make it look like he hadn't been walking in a hurricane.

Icarus flopped into the nest-like bed, her smiling softly. It felt like the eagles' nest. It was comfy and warm and there was a toy there. It was of an eagle. Just like the ones she had met. She smiled and hugged the stuffed animal and set the flute on her nightstand. She then fell asleep, smiling contently.
Sophia was surprisingly laxly dressed that morning. Much to the protests of her assistants, she had gone down to the dining hall in her silk pajamas and a nice fluffy robe. She had gone to get some warm tea to wake herself up.

Benjamin finally managed to force his hair into submission, and he straightened his collar. He found that he was suddenly nervous about seeing Sophia again. So, he sat on his bed and stared at the window for a bit, before getting up and heading to the kitchen. He went up to the breakfast bar and ordered just a coffee to wake himself up, before noticing that Sophia was there.... In her pajamas. He felt like an idiot, especially since she was so adorable in her robe. And mostly everyone had shown up in pajamas.
Jethrow, meanwhile, was totally passed out in his room. His windows were covered in black out drapes. Though he could go outside in the sun, it still hurt a little bit. So, he had his head buried under his pillow, cool sheets surrounding him.

Sophia looked up to see Benjamin and she smiled softly, waving him over. Once he sat down she looked him over. "Sticking to routine? That's very nice Benjamin. You're so organized. I must look like such a mess... In my robe and pajamas while you're a primped and ready for the day."

Benjamin shook his head and smiled at her, sitting beside her. 'You look adorable." He sipped his coffee, glad to be finally waking up again. "So, what are you doing this morning instead of class?"

Sophia smiled and shrugged a little. "I don't know. Maybe go back to bed. Or maybe dance a little with my favorite dance partner." she said, gently taking one of Benjamin's hands into her own.
