Could she just throw something at him? Just hit him with something? Please? Maybe if she could actually see...but right now she could barely open her eyes though it didn't hurt nearly as bad as it had a second ago. She plopped down on her bottom, sitting there in the dirt and shook her head. "I should have known. My instincts never center around one person...anything that's male should do." She shook her head, leaning back on her elbows to keep the moss on her eyes. It felt so good, cool and soothing on her burning orbs. "He was trying to get me..." she trailed off unable to even say the word. But why? Why had he manipulated them and tossed them together? And how could he say all those things about Sevilin and the way he felt about her? She knew Sevilin couldn't stand her and she felt the same. Those moments were...predetermined by drugs and artificial aphrodisiacs. There was nothing there. For some unfathomable reason, that bothered her more than she could express. "Any better?" she asked her suite mate in misery.

That was a sickening though from Malik. He had gone quiet...there was no need to shout and yell his anger or anything, no need to attract Underdark things. There was just no point. So there he sat, hand held over his eyes, the wet moss soaked with black almost sludge like material held fast. Though it was stinging the hell out of the scratches over his one eye. That had gone horribly wrong...though he knew that anger could foul anyone's plans. He'd let his get the better of him.
Though he did wish she would just shut her mouth, he didn't care to hear of the things that she was speaking of at all. Though if he could see he would of given her an absurd look at her questioning. "Does it matter?" Taking the moss for his face, a nice layer of wet black substance left behind, he opened his eyes slightly...vision was fuzzy, but it was there. Thus he chucked the moss away from him...more so because it was from Kieran's hands more or less. And he wiped his sleeve over his eyes, fingers touching at the scratches over his eye. He was actually quite lucky that thing didn't get at his eye itself. "You should of stayed out."
Nym was up on his knee at this point, chittering to him in concern, pawing at him as well. Licking at the scratches on his face actually, despite teh black film that was left behind sticking to his skin. A pet was his reward for his show of affection. Ever loyal Nym.

And there he went being an a**. She shook her head sighing, still leaning back on her elbows. "No, I suppose not." What was done was done and there was no going back, she knew that and so did he. They couldn't erase what had happened between them two days ago but they could agree never to speak on it again, and they could plan revenge on Malik, then forget it ever occurred. She tapped her nails on the ground for a moment, then reached up and pressed the moss a little tighter against her eyes. She felt it was only right to tell him the truth. "I'm not..." Restless movement before finally pulling the moss off and using her skirt to wipe any remnants of fuzz or 'juice' it left behind. She could sort of see and her eyeballs weren't burning balls of flame any longer. It was actually tolerable. A glance over at him, "Pregnant. I'm not pregnant." She swallowed, then pushed herself to her feet, a little unsteady, "I just...thought you should know."

He merely gave a grunt to her in response, not really finding the need to answer. Frankly he didn't even think about it, mostly because he didn't want to. After all, he had sired his share of kids, and not one of them did he know? What would of been different about this scenario if it came to pass. A look over to her, squinting some from pain still, and other wipe at blood and goo from his face. "Are you sure?"
Scenarios that no one wanted to think about but had been thrust upon them. He needed to reevaluate. That drow was a vicious creature when it came to that surface elf. Frankly Sevilin couldn't understand that...but he did acknowldge that Malik would go to quite the extremes. Another pet at Nym, before taking to checking the ferret over for any injuries.

Now he was questioning her. She wanted to get angry about it but just couldn't. Silence reigned for a long time and she finally sighed. "Yes." No, she wouldn't be carrying his baby and then giving birth. There would be no child to remind of the tricks played on them and the manipulation of one scheming cousin. It was to much to think about, too much to dwell on. She glanced at him again, still blinking every few minutes and wiping at trails of tears as her eyes attempted to cool themselves down and remoisten themselves. He seemed so unruffled by the whole thing, so cold and callous, no emotion whatsoever. She wished she could be like that but in reality she didn't regret it. Malik had said that Piper wanted her to experience passion. Well she had, even if it was drug induced. Sevilin had surprised her with a few of the things he'd done, things that she'd never known could be done. It had felt good, not painful, just...blissfull. Obviously it had been a torture for him and she was willing to accept that. He had his feelings and she had hers. But for one of the first times in her life she was thankful for the concept of reverie for that was one she'd love to live over and over again.

He merely a nod to that. No snide comment of victory against Malik's plan failing, nor a statement of some form of unpleasantness over the fact that it didn't happen. He seemed truly and honestly indifferent. Seemed with his vision leaving most of his temper had left as well. A general simmer of negativity right now.
"Obviously...we won't be having lessons today." And he put himself right back into the swing of things. But that's how he usually dealed with thing, turned a blind eye to them. Not like they could read. But he didn't attempt to stand yet...last thing his busted ego needed was a fall from tripping.

"Obviously," she agreed remaining right where she was. She wasn't going to move until her vision was much clearer, even though she'd dearly love to crawl away from him. But that might give him some sick form of enjoyment and she wasn't about to quench his sadistic appetite for entertainment. Tucking a stray piece of hair behind her ear, she glanced off in the direction of the stables. She would have been perfectly fine, if she'd just left well enough alone. But her thoughts turned once more toward Piper and Malik. As much as she didn't want to think on it, Malik had insinuated that Piper had something to do with it and Zahara intended to find out if that was true or not, and Lloth help the surface elf if she lied to her.

"Is that so?" Perhaps in time she would have more to say about the matter. She pretty much ignored anything Onyx said. She didn't want to hear about injuries or what to do to fix them. She wasn't sure she cared.
"Tanundra is like that." A little smile, though again it did not reach her eyes."
Aella nodded a bit. "A little later, best not for her to hear I think." Said in a low whiposer. With the state the Oracle was in, she would not bother to strain her ears to hear what was said. "Maybe some more sheets, just in case she gets cold."
She looked att Cedric, a little concernec for Meilikki's lack of interest in what was being said. Even though she would have known about it all, she would have asked people to describe it to her, she would have talked about it.

Nope, that hadn't gone the way he wanted to either. And his pride was looking for many an answer to soothe his fractured ego. Like how them both being older than himself gave them a bit of advantage. And that damn sun spot holder...that was a damn trick. And since when were those honorable to surface elves?
He raised his sleeve to his face once more, wiping black ick and some more blood from his face, not really caring whether he got it all off or not, more of concerened with just keeping it out of his eyes. Though his bangs and the side of his braid were showing staining from blood and goo. Damn white hair, showed dirt and filth so easily. And so here they were, being forced to sit in awkward silence because anyone with common sense knew you didn't walk around the Underdark with impared vision. Hurry up damnable eyes.

Onyx just nodded, and left, getting more sheets nad coming back with them, handing them over to Whirlwind.
"These are teh best we have for teh present. many guests recently. Moonstone, Roarke, the pups, extra Coq dragons, Kieran and now the oracle and if you want to stay I can have other rooms prepared. most of the rooms are kept up. so they only have so much spare layign around."
Malik only chuckled lightly at Kieran and Piper, though he reached out and took Piper gently by the arm, and pulled her over onto his lap, and let her lay there.
"As you wish, I'll treat you more like family. and you know, being a royal guest may not be so bad to me as you might think."
A slight grin, though only a few spikes of pain from piper being on him, but no outward show of it. he was letting her be pampered from not having her collar.

"Oh believe me Malik...in my kingdom, it would be." He gave a chuckle...Kieran had a unique sense of humor after all, and it was nowhere near lacking in his everyday life. Royal apperances or not. That was Kieran for you, now wasn't it?
Hell his own father still had his little two cents to toss in at how Kieran was...well his father graciously called it aloof, though Kieran knew he meant childish. Eh, it was his kingdom now he'd run it how he'd like it and have as much fun as he wanted while doing so. For three hundred or so years it had been his, and it hadn't fallen to ruin yet. He wasn't inclinded to change the way he was doing things then.
A little blink to Malik as she was more or less pulled down into his lap. That was unexpected. However she was keen to get up for a moment, bonding catching subconciously told pain, but then figured that that would be just as bad. And she's admit it, she was guilty of liking being so close...and it had seemed to make her relax more. Why? Malik's collar, Malik's ever so close prescense. They were in a way a bit equivalent to each other. Not to mention her getting up would probably hurt him all the more. A little smile to him. "I wouldn't challenge his games Malik...he can he quite....what's the word I want...oh yes h-"
"Silverfeather, you're doing it again."
"Do you honestly have to interrupt like that?"
He smiled at her. "Yes. As your father it's my divine right to interrupt you, embarass you, foster good manners and posture with elven grace, and generally make your life frustrating. I'm making up up for a fifty two year loss."
"How loving of you. Now where was I...right he's rather fervently creative." A shake of her head, though she had to force her head up and her shoulders down again. Indeed did get stiff after a while.
"And that's how you got your name too, isn't that interesting. So thank my fervent creativity and outlook."

Both seemed to be lost in their own musings, not wishing to say anything else to the other, both probably wanting to be a million miles from the other. She knew she did. And then at the same time, she wanted to be closer. Made perfect sense and no sense at all. She rubbed at her eyes a bit, and then reached on the ground, feeling for her daggers, slicing one finger as she grabbed the blade. But she ignored that and reached in the area that a fuzzy Sevilin sat. "Come on, we shouldn't be out here vulnerable." Grabbing his arm and tugging. Damn she wished she had one of those runes like he'd used on her, it would make life so much easier. Wait a minute! She stopped and her swollen eyes narrowed. "That little..." Piper had told her she'd taken the rune off, but it wasn't gone evidenced by Sevilin jerking her around earlier. She'd lied...but why? Oh yes, Piper had some serious explaining to do. Angrily she jerked Sevilin's arm and jerked her head toward the stables. though she was still a little shaky on her feet. "They're in the house, " she fairly spat. "You want to get eaten, stay out here. I'm going to find shelter in the stables." She whistled shrilly as she walked slowly, seeing if the Tempest and others would obey her. "That's enough Keely, bring them in."

"Vulnerable?" In that questioning challengeing tone. She may think herself to be so, but he didn't think as much of himself. Vulnerable...never. He didn't really move at her jerking...not that she could really push him around too much anyway. But he grabbed his own weapon as well as Nym and stood up, taking measured steps towards the stables.
Taking her on the suggestion why? Beacause he might as well not sit in the open...and he wasn't in a good frame of mind or abilities right now to trek back home. This would suffice until his eyes got back into sorts. And then the next time he got hold of that feathery thing, he was going to turn him into ferret bedding. "Careful...her horses may turn on you as well...". It wasn't a concerned tone, kind of mocking, and he was merely stating it to try and foster that anger she was feeling for the surface trash undoubtedly. What would give him a chuckle more than having proclaimed friend shove a dagger through the pale skinned annoyance.
Keely swallowed, surrounded by the little herd of horses and the fawn, of course the creatures perked thier ears at the whistle they knew so well but were hesitant to follow after a display like that. They weren't ones to know the sight of or understand true battle and confrontation. So they were a little out of sorts. However a pitched whisle from Keely they did follow as she had taken to leading them back to the stables at Zahara's 'suggestion'. Why did she always find herself around the bad situations?

The last thing she needed was a mocking drow. She spun around and glared at him, hands on her hips, eyes squinting but still narrowed in anger. Opening her mouth as if she wished to say something but she snapped it closed immediately after and shoved open the door to the stables, sitting down on one of the hay bales in the corner. Her daggers were easily sheathed, now that she was able to focus on them and she leaned back against the back wall and sighed. It had been a hell of a day and it wasn't even close to over yet. Tapping one boot idly she didn't much care if Sevilin was following or not just stared ahead and watched the line of horses and Keely troop inside, eventually healing the cut on her finger. She still had sugar, but bloody sugar didn't appeal and she didn't want one of them thinking her fingers were part of the meal after all.

Aella accepted the sheets, put them off to the side. But she shook her head and Onyx's suggestion. "I can't stay. I'm under punishment." But goodness...all of these people staying at the fortress. She didn't really care for the indors anyway. She shrugged. "I don't want to get into more trouble by ignoring the duty I got introuble for ignoring in the first place."
Fawn came into step close behhind the drow, curious and frightened of them at the same time. Her little hooves clacked agaisnt the stable floors as she entered, and she ducked into one of the stables, peeking a tthe drow shyly from over top the cross boards.
