"No, I generally don't notice until it gets a bit breezy, well except that one time where I grew from child to teen, that had been a bit uncomfortable," she admitted.
She couldn't quite remember if from Surprise to child her clothes just shredded or if they disappeared.
"The necklace was a bit tight..."

Earendil nodded. "That scared me," he admitted. "Not that every growth didn't, but ... that one especially."
He squeezed Miyuki's shoulder gently. "Anyways, the three of us should be going for breakfast. Cindy, would you like us to bring some food up for you and Vergil? I guess you probably don't want to leave him, and he still doesn't have any clothes ..."
Maybe Amalirahc would have some he could use until he got some that fitted him properly.

"That would be wonderful," Cindy replied, "And if it's not too much trouble, I would like to see if giving Vergil a hot soak would help his body, but I need help getting him to the tub, so could you ask someone to help me please?"
She had never dealt with anyone who reacted this badly to a growth before so she hoped that it would do the trick.

Earendil nodded. "Of course. And I'll see if they have some sort of cream or something to help with the ache, Valar know they've got something for just about every other ailment."
Drust, malek, kenet ... there had to be something or other for growing pains.

Cindy had to chuckle at that, because she knew that was likely quite true.
"Good point, well better not keep you from breakfast. I'll... maybe see you later."
Though later today might be unlikely depending on how long it would take for Vergil to get better and get clothes.
"We'll see you again eventually," Lin smiled.

"Good luck with Vergil," Earendil added as they headed downstairs.
After the three of them left, Vergil looked up at Cindy and smiled weakly.
"I guess we're going to have to change my room when we get home, huh?" he asked. "And I finally get to sleep in the big bed!"
He paused, then added slowly, "I guess that means no more jumping on it ..."

Closing the door, Cindy made her way back to Vergil's side. She smiled at his comment, a bit amused by it.
"Yes, no more jumping on the bed for you."

"It was fun, though," Vergil murmured, setting his sword aside and laying back against the pillow again. He smiled at Cindy. "It was a fast way to get down from my upstairs."
He paused, thinking of all the things that would have to change, the things that he wouldn't be able to do anymore. "Mother ... if I get clothes here, they're going to be like the clothes they wear here, aren't they?" he asked quietly.

"Possibly yes," Cindy nodded knowing what he was thinking.
Cindy had, humoured a lot by making clothes that were far more like Gaian style clothing (not that there was such thing as Gaian style clothing but they weren't found in the Four Lands).
"You know it has to happen eventually, even I stopped wearing clothes from Gaia after a decade or so living in the Borderlands."

Vergil lowered his eyes sadly. "But I really liked my clothes," he mumbled softly. "Can't I get more like them? And especially my coat? I really like my coat ..."
He really wanted to be able to dress as he always had. He knew there was a wonderful tanner in the city, maybe when he was stronger he could try convince his mother to take him there for a new jacket.

Cindy looked thoughtful, well she supposed he was still at that age, and most Seconds never change the way they dress. Lin was the exception to this, but even she still kept to her mainly Gaian style clothing.
"Well... we'll see at the moment, we just need something to fit you, then we can see about more permanent clothing," Cindy replied softly.

Vergil nodded, satisfied with that. "I just really like the clothes I had," he murmured, closing his eyes again.
Just then, there was a knock at the door - Alena with a tray of food for both Cindy and Vergil, and Elros to help carry the boy to a bath.

With giving back Vergil's sword and breakfast out of the way it was time to see to important things like boots and cloaks. There was also the question of what Luk wanted to do today, since he would be here a while as well.
Normally they would be doing Miyuki's lessons, but since they needed to get several things and they just got back (and the excitement from yesterday), it didn't seem like lessons would be very productive today.
Miyuki herself, was excited to see the shops again, she liked looking. She liked seeing all the pretty things, and it had become very obvious to Lin as Miyuki grew older that Miyuki was, what she was not. A girly girl.

Luk was tagging along with the three as they headed out to the city. The day before, he hadn't seen much, since they'd only passed through quickly, and then he had spent the rest of the afternoon with Rhea, learning about his half-sister. He was eager to see the city though, and particularly to watch the people and how the city lived.
"The tannery for boots for all of us for the winter," Earendil mused as they strolled through the streets, "and the tailor's for a cloak, yes?"

"Yes, just those two places, otherwise we can stop anywhere inbetween," Lin replied.
Miyuki decided to walk along side Luk, because she wanted to know what he thought.
"Do you like looking at pretty things?"
