Kids and sharing. That what everything really boiled down to...at least for now until they got over and certain other aspects took over thier lives and they had those kinds of problems then. But for right now, all was fine with them. However, for the moment, all he cared abotu was that the boy wasn't upset and he understood why things had come to pass as they did. At the boy's apology, Sevilin pet through the boy's hair, pressing a kiss to his forhead too, before pulling the boy off the chair and only his knee, giving him a squeeze of a hug. "You're forgiven."

She couldn't help but smile at the way the child constantly kept that connection alive. It was a beautiful thing to know that he needed them to hug him and make him feel better. She'd never had that and was more than willing to give it out all he wanted. She rubbed his back gently and moved slightly closer in case he wanted or needed a hug from her as well.
Zykariel threw his arms around his father's neck and hugged him tightly then reached over and hugged his mother as well, who'd come close enough to get one from him. Thus still sitting there for a moment he glanced up and met his father's eyes. "Do we have to go home now?"

"No we don't have to go home now if you don't want to. Besides...we should stay until Malik and Piper get back anyway." Turning a look to Zahara. "Yes, they left." Runes were great things. But his attention turned back to his son and he set the child on his feet. "Do you want to go back and play with Malikhai then?" He personally was starting to experience some pain and well, child didn't need to be around in case he started showing signs of that.

That was a silly question in his mind. "Yes!" Thus scampering off he ran back up to the nursery, hurrying and redressing himself as a pirate. "Argh you blackbellied scoundrel, give back my wench!"
Zahara blinked for a moment, opened her mouth to question it and then shut it again. Well, that was interesting. Thus she watched as Zykariel scampered off and then took the seat that Sevilin was still kneeling in front of. Reaching out she lightly grasped his jaw and turned his head to study his cheek. "How's it doing?" Carefully, she pulled the top of the bandage down to study the ravaged skin and her experienced eye ran over the jagged line of stitches. "It needs to be washed again..."

And the boy was off once more. He wished he could mood swing like that...no wonder children never stressed about anything. But his attention was brought to Zahara as she decided it was time to check up on him again. "Mm, starting to hurt again." Well, that was expected anyway...seeing as well he did gave a gouge in his face from eye to ear...he was probably handling it better than most though what with his pain tolerance. "Joy...shall we get to that then?" Not his most favorite acticity. Made his eyes tear up sometimes...

"It looks like it." She pushed the bandage back into place and pulled out another vial. "You take that and then meet me in the kitchen." She pushed off of that chair and headed upstairs to gather the rest of her supplies as well as fresh bandages to redoctor his gouge. Entering the kitchen she shooed every one of those serfs out and dragged over a dining room chair. "Have a seat." Thus she turned the water on to let it run and warm up and handed him a towel to pad the back of his neck with before she peeled off the bandage and disposed of it. "We'll let it get some air while the water warms. You sure you can handle this right now?"

He nodded, and made his way down to the kitchen, her coming in a few moments later with her things and a chair, promptly shooing everyone out. Sevilin took a seat and the towel, putting it in it's usual place before downing the contents of the vial and leaning his head back for her with a sigh. "Not going to get any better than this really, Besides, I've learned to deal with it. Don't worry."

"Well...if you're certain." She felt the water again, found it had warmed, and began to soak a washcloth while blocking the drain and adding soap. Squeezing out the washcloth, she walked over to him and lightly began to dab at the goo that was still all around the cut, washing off the excess medicine that was going to cake on if it was exposed to the air too much longer. "Zykariel's taken care of which is a good thing. How do you feel about what Khaiver said to him?" She bathed his cheek three or four times, freshening the cloth each time before finally picking up a towel and beginning to gently pat it dry.

He had closed his eyes, frowning lightly as she went about doing her healer thing...pressure in the slightest wasn't a fun thing, but he contained his agony well...not showing it very much to her or acting out because of it. "What am I supposed to think about it? Doesn't surprise me that Khaiver would do something like that." Taking a breath and holding it a moment before slowly letting it out as she continued healer motions.

"I got you in that chainmail, I can get you out of it."
A light chuckle. yes he remembered the fighting and struggling to make her wear that stuff. but he moved from her taking her hand lightly and leading her to an spot that was mostly covered in the phroesent moss, which was rather soft and enough of it would easily cover the hrashness of the stone underneath. the a little bit form that, made a fire, using packed kindling and some stones. pyrite and flint, had to love that.
"We have all the time in the world. All the time we need."
breaking out the jerky, and handing her some.
"and look, I even got travel food."

"Sorry." She might have pushed a little too hard there and she caught his subtle signals and gave him a break for a moment as she pretended to check it. "But you don't believe it's true at all? You were adamant with Zykariel that Khaiver had lied so I was just curious." She gently remedicated it and then carefully pressed a new bandage into place. "There all done. Now you're squeaky clean just like you like to be." She gave him a smile before turning and releasing the plug to let the water drain. Drying her hands on the towel and removing her supplies, she quirked an eyebrow. "What are we going to do with ourselves until Malik and Piper get back?"

Merely a noise to her sorry, like he was going to admit that he was in pain of that sorts. Nope, that was just him. "Why would I believe that? There's no point to believe it." Nope, besides where he came from either the father or the son survived, usually not both. He was the one alive so it only reasoned that his father wasn't worth anything anymore to whomever down there." Quietly sitting there then as he let her finish. An amused blink at her then on her question. "Play house? Or do you want to talk about more intimate details in regards to the two of us. Do you know how absolutely lost in gloating Malik is over it?"
"Confident as ever Malik D'vinn." Shaking her head at him lightly, but let him take her hand and pull her over to a more comfortable spot within the vast expanse of uncomfortable underdark. Soft and a nice enchanting glow, wasn't it? Much. Though she did contemplate fire making a moment...they had gone many a night without fire on that quest...attracted too much and they could keep warm easy enough, all three being elves. Piper shook her head to break her thoughts from that and turned her look on Malik, smiling softly at him. "Joy of being an elf, hm?", taking that piece of jerky from him with some amusement, "You just remembered everything. Sure you haven't been secretly planning this?"

"I haven't been planning this secretly. we have a son who for some reason or other, is finding it highly amusing in his spare time to try and navigate the maze that is my head. apparently he's inherited your telepathy."
taking a bite out of his jerky.
"when i was first starting on my military career, I had as you can imagine a phobia against large hunting cats. As I didn't exactly know what Cymarron had actually been save in the barest form. In order to cure this phobia, I was stripped of sword and armor and placed into a pit with several of the mountain lions from the steamfont mountains. Emerging not only alive, but unscathed, prove to myself that they were just any other beast. something perhaps to respect for it's deadly potential, but not to cower away from."
A small smile to her.
"I hope that by showing you again the underdark is not a giant monsterous mouth waiting to swallow you, that perhaps your jitters will fade and you confidence will come back to you about travel or even the open lands aroudn our home."
A chuckle.
"the method is just something that both of us will certainly enjoy and I have been missing you a bit with you being gone so long."

Just as she'd thought, he wasn't able to take the thought that Khaiver was his father. She'd tested him and he'd failed which was perfectly fine with her since it didn't matter if he gained that knowledge in his lifetime or not. Better to allow the secret to die with her since Zykariel had been told that Khaiver had lied. Chuckling, she shook her head. "What have we been doing for the last three years?" Using the towel to clean up any excess water around the counter, she glanced back. "Doesn't surprise me, Piper said 'I told you so' too. But that's all I would permit." A lift of her hands and she leaned back against the counter. "I'm up for anything you are."

"He's probably not trying to do it to play around in there, just thinking deeply on something and it just sort of happens to get through...even when he is doing it, he probably doesn't know that he is. Just an ability that needs to be taught how to handle. Hopefully his won't end up like mine." Shaking her head lightly before giving a sigh and leaning against his shoulder. "That does make sense...almost like throwing someone in the water to prove that they won't immediately die from drowning. I can see where it makes sense. Turning her eyes up to him. "Funny thing is...nothing really happened to us outside the temples...no clue why I got fidgety about the underdark in general. It's almost like when we first came down here and went to Neriak. I was a mess..." Though he had to admit, she had kept herself together somewhat well. Another smile and a chuckle. "This is true...we haven't really had too much time with each other what with Malikhai finding his way into our bed everynight just to make sure I haven't gone anywhere by myself."
"I've been playing owner and you've been playing tenant and babysitter. Though you stay without rent and there's other more adult things going on as well." Shrugging lightly where he was, head still leaned back as he let his body settle out once more. It was horrible sometimes wasn't it? Much so...but it would all start getting better soon...could at least get rid of stitches in a bit. That itself would be a good thing...stitches being brushed over or caught and such was not fun in the least. "Yes but Malik wants a plaque and has already told me that this situation will be referenced back to as needed in other discussions where he turns out to be right and us wrong." Slight shrug, lifting his head to look at her, squinting a moment before back to normalcy. "So, you've informed me that we're engaged and such...what are your plans on that?"Someone had to bring it up.
