"It helps with the pain," he hissed in return, snatching up the bag and holding it tightly. "It makes it so that I can walk, and think more clearly." Deft fingers tucked the small pouch into his belt, and he turned away to drop into the chair nearby. Sighing, he rubbed his hands against his face, then up into his hair and over his ears for a moment. "I want to believe you," he whispered, staring towards the floor. "I'm trying to believe you, but I just don't understand. Maybe I shouldn't have grown up yet, I don't know. I thought I was ready for all of this, but I'm not. I couldn't even collect HERBS without getting shot and captured." His voice was bitter, but the sentiment wasn't aimed at Aranea.. it was aimed at himself.

Aranea clenched her fists, then relaxed them again as she let out the breath she had been holding. She wouldnt hit him to knock sense into him; yet anyway.
'It doesnt seem as if it is helping you think clearer if you can even think,' her voice pitched higher showing her irritation.
'That what we did meant nothing to me.' she knelt before him, two hands going to rest on his legs, her fingers touching the warm skin of his thighs.
'It happened...you must not blame yourself! He could have taken any of us.' her tone gentler now as she looked up at him.
'Don't pull away from me. And if you need something for the pain just ask me and I will give you something that doesnt rob the sense.

"I'm alright," he said, stubbornly, a moment before reaching down and winding his arms around Aranea to pull her into his lap. He buried his face against her hair, nuzzling as he inhaled deeply of the lingering scent that clung to the silken strands. "I'm sorry. I'm being an idiot, but sometimes I just can't see why someone would choose me over them."

'As you say,' Aranea let him pull her onto his lap, two arms winding around so that the hands rested on his back, another traced the line of his jaw with a fingertip.
'Because I see your worth..even when you clearly do not. I love, I ache for you my Feles. I have not been able to make a single concoction properly since we joined because I did not know if you still wanted me.'
There..she had bared her innermost once again. It was something that only Feles would ever see.

Tilting his head against the light touch, Feles could feel a purr rumbling in his throat. "Of course I still want you... how could I not?" He reached then, taking one of her hands and bringing it to his lips gently. "You're perfect... and if you can understand that there will be times I don't feel worthy of this attention from you, then I'll try to understand that I DO deserve it... and be thankful for it."

'Well I'm thankful that you aren't completely pig-headed,' she said, smirking a little. She drew him up to her, pleased that he was still hers enough to push the little matter of his substance use to one side for now. Hands cupping his face, she brushed her lips against his, drinking in his taste and the scent of him around her.
'Plus its getting colder..and I dont want to wrap anyone else around me for warmth,' she teased gently.

Feles' eyes narrowed in mirth, a lazy smile creeping across his lips as he watched her. "I see," he murmured, flicking out his rasped tongue against her bottom lip. "You keep me around because my tail makes a good blanket." He knew better... and knew he was likely going to get smacked for that one, but it was worth it.

'Now then...' Aranea bared her brilliant white teeth, before nipping his bottom lip with them, running her hands lazily down his spine as she playfully nipped and kissed his lips, before breathlessly finishing her sentence.
'If that were true,' and a hand grasped the base of his tail lightly.
'I'd have long ago taken it from you,' she smirked again.
'But I like my Feles in one delightful piece so you are safe.'

"Well, that's good to know," he replied, chuckling as he leaned back in the chair again. "Because I've gotten quite used to the idea of having four arms wrapped around me, and I'd need to find TWO women to take your place if you decided to take my tail and run."

Aranea laughed at that;
'You'd never find two women like me,' she grinned, the fingers of one hand entangled in the long hairs of his tail. She kissed along the side of his face, moving downwards and kissing in the sensitive spot at the nape of his neck. Sitting up again, she looked at him.
'So..' she said gently.
'What have you been doing all this time? Apart from making me lust after you, tease that you are.'

Feles glanced down then, letting his fingers twine in her hair lazily. "Thinking... trying to figure out how to walk right again. I hate having to use this cane." He shot a glare at the offending stick in the far corner of the room, the claws of one hand tapping against the arm of the chair. "I've been trying to get used to the seasons' change as well... I'll have better luck staying unseen in the snow."

'And so you will have an advantage over myself. The cold is making me feel..sluggish,' Aranea rested her head into the hand that was playing with her hair.
'If snow comes I won't even want to venture outside.' she shivered at the mere thought of it.
'I am sorry that I was not able to heal your leg completely. I don't know why it should still be giving you pain. I wish..I wish I could make it go away.' she understood that him having to use a prop to aid him in moving around wasnt helping his state of mind.

"The arrow might have been poisoned," he murmured idly, his gaze moving to the jagged scar on his leg. "Or it could just be how long it was left to fester. I'm beginning to think that he did it on purpose... leaving it like he did. He wanted to hurt me as much as possible, he even drove the arrow in further once when I was struggling."

Her chest rose, as her eyes flashed with anger at the thought of the vile attacker of the one she held dear.
'If I ever get my hands on him,' Aranea hissed between gritted teeth.
'He would beg for his end before a day had passed but I would let him suffer till his last breath.' her cheeks were flushed with colour at the thought, and she enveloped Feles in all four arms.
'We could torture him together, you and I,' she purred a little.

Purring, Feles tipped his head back and wrapped around her, curling his legs a bit to give her a level sitting spot. "Sounds delicious," he murmured, leaning in to nuzzle at the curve of her throat. "I'd like to make him suffer for what he did... and for losing you your little prize before you were ready to let her go. If we ever get our hands on him again, he'll pay for what he's done... him and that treacherous b***h."
