There was the steady sound of his breathing, it was the only thing he was really focusing on. Chath's eyes were closed, his body still tired from the event a couple of days ago. He still couldn't believe he was missing an arm, the vivid memory of those teeth biting into him always make him feel sick to his stomach.
His nights he slept restlessly, nightmares always wrenching him awake. It was also hard to move around, he kept feeling like his right arm should still be there and would go to grab his glass of water but nothing of course would happen. It would take him a moment to register that he had no arm there to grab with.
At first he had been rather depressed about it. Not only had he managed to be a very poor hero but he had been seriously injured as well...the doctors reassured him that his arm would grow back...though they weren't sure on how long it would take. It seemed a strange concept....to be able to grow an arm. But he left it at that...currently he was resting...trying to will away the odd feeling of missing a limb.

Ligeia looked at the door to the room that he'd been led to by a hospital nurse trying to think about if he really wanted to visit. He did, he was a little nervous was all, the last time he'd seen Chath was in the D-Corp building with chaos around them.
"Can I help you?" A passerby asked looking at the owl and then reached out to turn the knob to the room and pushed it open thinking he was standing outside because one arm was in a sling and the other was holding flowers. Was he supposed to bring flowers to to another guy? Get well soon seemed strange given the situation so he'd not gotten a card. So he'd gotten just a bouquet of flowers because he didn't want to come empty handed.
When the door opened up he couldn't really bolt so he gave a flap of his right wing before walking into the room. He looked over where the newt was laying, he looked like he was sleeping. He walked in quietly to lay the flowers down on the counter, he would sit with him for a bit but he didn't want to wake him up.

Chath felt the presence of someone entering his room, hi eyes remained closed as he assumed it must just be the nurse coming in to check on him...but that person didn't leave instead they sat down. Perhaps his mother had come to visit? She had been in often enough, nervously agitated by his lack of arm and very cross that D-corp let it happen.
His eyes opened slowly, everything was blurry he blinked a couple more time before his eyes finally came into focus he looked over and recognized Legeia instantly. He offered a weak smile to him.
"You look awful." he joked trying to lighten the mood somewhat.

The owl boy gave a bit of a grin before he walked over to the bed and sat down on the seat that was next to the hospital bed, "Mmm, your such a sweet talker." He told the newt, sure that he looked all that attractive at the moment. He reached his hand out to lay it on Chath's hand and gave it a squeeze, "How are you feeling..." The owl's face reddened a little bit, "Sorry, stupid question."
He went quiet, fidgetting a little bit. He shouldn't have said that, should have thought before speaking but it had escaped his lips before he could call it back.

Chath gave a wry grin. "Best I can be I suppose. But it sucks having to relearn everything.." he said squeezing the owl boys hand in return. He looked over his...boyfriend noting the broken arm and wing. "Looks like you got roughed up a bit...i don't recal much after....well...you know ....what happened? " He asked feeling a bit useless at the moment. He then caught the sight of flowers and looked a bit surprised.
"flowers? did you bring those?" he inquired looking a bit sheepish at asking. He wasn't sure if he was flattered or embarrassed by the token it was sweet though...he was sure if it had been the other way around he would of gotten Geia flowers as well.

Geia looked a bit embarrassed, "I did something stupid." He admitted when asked what happened, "Aullol grabbed you and... I tried to get her attention off you. I guess it worked." His entire form gave a shiver just at the mere thought of the tail he'd gotten smacked with.
He turned his head to look then smiled, "Yeah, I felt strange coming in empty handed and... people bring flowers when visiting people in the hospital so..." He flushed.

Chath smiled as best he could wincing slightly at Geia mentioning of Aullol. "Well it could of been worse. I am glad you are okay." He said very much wanting to give the owl boy a hug of reassurance. But...it felt too weird, like a ghost hand he could almost feel it moving...but it wasn't there.
His face blushed at Geia's words. So the flowers had been brought to him...why did it feel like it should of been the other way around?
"Ah..they are very pretty. when the nurse comes in i will ask if she can put it in a vase." he continued and then he wiggeled himself over on his bed and patted it to let Geia sit beside him. Not like he had an arm there to take up space.
"Did everyone else make it out okay?" he asked wanting to know the injuries taken during the battle. He certainly hoped there wasn't any fatalities.

Geia gave a nod, "I was lucky." He murmured, though he felt a bit guilty for it, he'd gotten out with only some broken bones where as Chath had been wounded much worse. He gave a flap of his wing that wasn't wrapped tightly before he moved to sit down on the bed next to Chath, "Everyone else..." He started, pausing to think about it. He hesitated a moment, "As far as I know everyone make it out... in... relatively one piece. But... umm..."
He knew of a couple others who were injured because Vorel had told him. He wasn't sure though if he should tell Chath given he wasn't looking like he was in the condition for hearing bad news.

Chath listened intently, his own mother had been vague on the details and he hadn't seen Zyanya since the battle.
"Relatively? I hope no one else was seriously injured.." he said his face looking worried he looked at Geia's wing that was bandaged and recalled the time where he had accidentally crushed Geia's wing and the pain he had been in. Must be frustrating for him to be trapped on the ground.
"Um...I hope you will be able to fly again....do you know where Keir is? I havn't heard word of him.."

The owl looked over his shoulder at his bandaged wing for a long moment, as if considering it before he gave a half shrug, "I will fly again." He sounded more determined them was normal for him. It was mostly because he refused to even consider that the sky would taken away from him, he was just grounded for a bit was all. He would fly again soon! Well... as soon as his wing healed up.
Geia gave little jump then looked over at the newt, "K-Keir... umm..." He seemed to be thinking hard on something, he had asked so he should say something right? Ligeia was sure that he would want to know if Vorel had been hurt so... he should tell Chath right?

Chath gave his best smile to the owl, he was glad Ligeia was refusing to give up the sky even if the wing may never heal the same. "I am glad. It would make me sad if i couldn't look up into the sky and see you there." he said quietly wondering if he would be able to swim with only one arm.
He gave Geia a pleading look when the other hesitated to say anything about the black. And though alive and somewhere in the d-corp facility Keir was in a foul mood with a broken wing and a temper that had him muzzled.
"He..is alive right?" he pushed...sounding at if the alternative would be something that could only come out of a horror story.

Ligeia gave a smile, "I will be there soon enough, no matter what." He assured him then paused, fiddling with his sling with his free hand. He looked up at him when he spoke his next question, "Yes! Yes he is alive, but he got hurt... I am not sure how bad though. Vorel... he has a hard time sometimes describing things."
He really had to help his dragon learn more words soon, Vorel wasn't as simple as Mr. Coleman had said Frost Dragons could be, he was smart he just needed extra help learning was all.

Chath nodded his head relief flooding through his face at the mentioning that Keir was indeed alive. Though the relief was soon replaced with concern. "Hurt? How hurt?" he pressed, wondering if Auloll had managed to do anything to Keir as she had done to him.
"But you say Vorel has seen him? then..he must be doing alright." He mused sounding tired all of a sudden and leaned again Geia.
"Heh..guess I won't be doing any training sessions with Ter any time soon.." he gave a weak laugh at the thought. He then stiffened as he recalled that memory and then looked to Geia's hand as if recalling that the owl boy had hurt it.
"are you hands ok?" he asked not evening pausing to think that perhaps Ter didn't want him to tell Geia that he had told him about Geia's accident.

"Vorel said he fell. Aullol tried to fly with him and another dragon on her back and..." He didn't have to tell Chath that Keir wasn't exactly a flying ace since it was Chath's dragon. He looked down at the newt when Chath leaned against him and he gave him a bit of a smile, "If you need rest I can come back."
He lifted a hand up to sooth Chath's hair back carefully, poor Chath was probably in need of a lot of rest with the injury he'd gotten.
"Huh? My hands?" He gave a shake of his head, "Naw, they didn't get hurt luckily... though with the one arm bandaged and in a sling I can't really trim my nails as I'd like." He said this as if to explain why he was wearing his glove again, "You were training with Ter? I bet he enjoyed that." For some reason his brother found fighting as a fun pastime.

Chath winced at the description he wondered how high up his poor dragon had fallen...he very much doubted he was able to fly to save himself from a very harsh fall.
"Nah don't go..I've only seen my mom since I have been here..it is nice to have company other than family." he said looking to Geia's hand and then wondering if the owl boy would let him slip the glove off. He liked the feeling of Geia's touch...more so when there wasn't cloth in the way.
"I can try trimming your nails if you want me to.." he said and realized the offer was empty due t the fact...he was more likely to hurt Geia in the process trying to do everything left handed.
