A single figure strode in through the door, completely clueless as to what was going on. Didn't he own a shirt? Jeez, hadn't he even come in during Christmas shirtless? But, of course, he was sexy enough to pull that off. Temperature didn't really affect a morph after all.
Kishuna blinked; he'd come in right when Siegell started yelling. A slight smile slipped onto his face. "Oh, got up on the wrong side of the bed, did you?" he addressed Siegell. "I'm sure if I came in there to keep you company you'd feel better." His smile widened and turned into a taunting smirk. "Pretty sexy, though," he added, running his eyes down Siegell's body. "Too bad..." He laughed, then turned to the others, realizing after a few seconds that he didn't know many of them. "...So. What's going on around here?" he asked. "Everyone's acting weird." Sure, like he was one to talk.

The noble stood for a moment before he collapsed the couch which Blossom was laying in(Only he was on the floor). His back was to the girl and his head rested on the arm rest. He was kinda lazy to get back to his own room now that he was here, he was sleepy and he didnt' care where he had to sleep as long as he GOT his sleep.

These people were getting weirder and weirder. ...seriously? A crazed, gold-eyed, masked man, a mentally slow behemoth, and now a shirtless man? Are they all insane?
"...weird, huh? And you're the one without a damn shirt..."

The door to Fefga's house banged open, and Renault strode in, presence more commanding than before. His clothing had changed; his before drab robes had changed to a snowy white, save for the blood that trailed down his left side. "He. . . escaped, sadly." The now-Saint's voice was rough, but clear, though not many people would realize what he was talking about. A moment later, he coughed, and when he lowered his hand it was speckled with blood. "Rhys. Tell him to get out here." His voice was quieter now. One glance registered Kishuna, then dismissed him as Renault dropped himself tiredly onto the nearby couch, and his eyes slid half-closed. "Now. I need healing before I faint. Got it?" One arm dropped wearily onto a table; this, however, knocked over a vase, which shattered on the floor. Well. The bishop should wake up now, if he wasn't already.

Noting a new voice in there, Nometal turned, and saw Renault there, then after registering what he said, he started off to go get Rhys.

Why couldn't people sleep as soon as the sun went down? Admittedly, Ninian hadn't slept soundly, but to be awakened at such an early hour after she had gone to bed so late left her disoriented. Drowsy, she meandered out into the hallway, rubbing her eyes.
". . . Why is everyone awake?" she asked, surprised to see so many people. "It's so early. . . ."
Still not entirely awake, she vaguely registered Siegell standing in the doorway to his room, looking not at all pleased.
"Siegell? What's going on?" she asked him.
She thought she heard someone else enter, say something perhaps. Something broke, making the dancer jump. She back towards the wall to stand next to Siegell.

"Ninian, we need to get Rhys. Renault is in pain...it looks like he went to try and get someone, and that wound was a cause...we should hurry." Moving faster to go to Rhys. Something tells me that he won't be happy if he is asleep.

It seemed like the people in this house didn't want to let anyone sleep. There was quite a loud banging noise (Someone's arrived...) and then after about a full minute, a clear shattering sound. She stirred against Rhys' chest, let out a lion's yawn, and sat up, rubbing a hand against her temple. "You... you can sleep, I'mma see what's going on," she told him, drowsy. She rolled off of her bed and onto the floor, catching herself on her hands and knees. Amelia pulled herself up, neatly smoothing down her skirt. With that, she yawned, shivered at the cold wooden flooring against her feet, and left the room, closing the door carefully behind her.
She made her way quietly to the main room, running one hand through her tousled blond hair, another yawn ripping through her throat and forcing her jaw open wide. "What is even going on in here...?" she started, blinking twice. Her eyes adjusted to the introduction to the strong light, and she looked at the scene before her. An unfamiliar blonde man, dressed a little too nicely to mesh comfortably with their motley band of soldiers, priests, and the odd former nobility, stood near the couch where Blossom was dead asleep, Ephraim nearby in a similar state. Kishuna stood near the front door, somehow still not wearing a shirt, eyes on a similarly-shirtless Siegell, looking as angry as a bear awakened from hibernation. Amelia's eyes lingered on his chest for a moment, but then she heard a familiar voice, and her eyes widened.
When did this happen? Renault was half-awake on the far end of the couch from her, having somehow avoided her gaze until he had spoken again, something about needing healing before he passed out. She could easily see the blood on his robes. Immediately she ran right for him, forgetting about sleep. "F-Father!" She cried, careful to avoid the shattered glass across the floor, especially with her bare feet. "What happened...? You... your chest! Did that lizard woman attack again...??"

". . . O-oh!" Renault suddenly snapped awake as he was addressed, by Amelia no less. Well, he couldn't be looking like this in front of her. . . he had to put on a good front, or she'd think he was really injured. Which of course he was, but to worry her. . . he'd feel like a bad parent. So he had to put on a strong front. "No, I went to recover Nils. . . we fought and he managed to stab me once." Renault ran a finger along his chest where a lighter color showed through the fabric. "And he slashed me once, here. . . I would have had him if Rei hadn't come in." He paused, then smiled at Amelia. "But, Rei was already injured, so I was able to hold them both off. And I made my way back here; I don't really enjoy bleeding all that much. But it's just a minor wound, nothing to worry about really; it just hurts." He coughed again, but hid the spray of blood this time. "If Rhys will get out here and heal me, I'll be perfectly fine." The Saint reached out and took Amelia's hand. "Stay with me until he gets here, all right? I'd rather like that."

Barging into the room Rhys was in, Nometal then moved over there swiftly, and tried to wake him. "Rhys we need your help. Renault is in need of a good healing, and you are the onyl one there to help him right now."

Amelia sank down to a sitting position next to Renault, eyes wide as he straightened up and explained things. He fought Nils...? Nils? When did... this happen? Amelia looked down to his chest, frowning at the sight of the close-up view of his robes, stained red with blood, and judging by the touch, it was still fresh, and developing outwards still. Fresh.
"Y-You fought Rei, too...?" Amelia demanded, openly astonished. She briefly thought of her battle with Rei; had Ashera not granted her that aid, Amelia knew she would have died. Rei was simply too resistant to normal attacks in whatever condition that evil brought to be effected by her strikes without the blessing of the goddess. Her thoughts flashed to the deep gashes across her chest, wounds she knew were already leaving a faint scar that crossed her sternum and stretched from two spots at the bottom of her ribcage, overlapping over to either shoulder, and she shivered invisibly.
She didn't seem very swayed by his insistence. "I don't really enjoy bleeding all that much. But it's just a minor wound, nothing to worry about, really; it just hurts." And then he coughed, covering his mouth with his hand.
It didn't seem that minor to her. It was so close to his lung... had it damaged his lung? Internal injuries were bad, very bad. His other hand moved to hers, though. His hands were so much bigger than hers. "Stay with me until he gets here, all right? I'd rather like that."
Amelia smiled a little. She wasn't sure it was as minor as he said, but... if it got too bad, she knew he wouldn't be so stupid as to not tell someone. "...Of course, Dad," Amelia smiled. She sat back against the couch, leaning against Renault's shoulder in silence.

Renault blinked. W-what? She'd. . . called him Dad. A gentle wave of warmth swept over him, something he didn't believe he'd ever felt before. Someone. . . that he truly loved, who cared about him. It made him feel good, whether she was his biological daughter or not. After a moment of silence, he wrapped his arms around the girl, holding her tightly against him in an odd display of emotion. ". . . Thank you," he whispered to her quietly. "You don't know how much that means to me. . ." His eyes were wet. Was he beginning to cry? He hoped not, that would be a bit embarrassing. . .

Siegell gave Kishuna a hell of a "You wish you could do this" sneer and then yawned as Ninian approached. "Seriously. They're really gonna make me do this. I came here wanting healing and rest, and now I'm gonna have to rearrange some digestive tracts." He gave Ninian a pained look. "Understand this is under duress," he sighed, turning to grab the empty glass off his bedside table and looking for a decent surface to smash it on so he could gut somebody with it.

Ninian watched Siegell pick up the glass and look around. A moment later, it struck her what he was about to do.
"Siegell!" she cried. "I don't think it's a good idea to break that!" She didn't want to know what FEFGA's reaction to broken dishes would be, and the others might not take to kindly to his hurting anyone, not when it sounded like someone else was hurt.
