Welcome to Gaia! ::

'Oh get inside." he murmured, gently leading her in and closing the door. The bath wasn't made so he looked at the faucet. Plumbing was new, and he wasn't quite sure how to work it but after a few twists and turns he had a good hot stream of water pouring out. "Let me help you." And walked toward her, wincing at the swollen joins as he undid the sheet again. "Just relax in the bath, all right? I'll bathe you, Lily." He said softly, smiling.

"Lily you can hardly move your arms." He explained. "Rest in the water, makes sure it covers your shoulders as well before you even think about moving, all right?" he instructed, looking at the bottles of soaps by the bath and finding the one his sisters had bought him, quickly going under the water to wet his hair before re-appearing back up. "Wish me luck." he murmured, uncapping it and pouring it onto his hair, making it soapy, looking at the bentien, and grabbing a bottle, moving toward her and placing it down beside her. "When you feel like you can move again." He said, continuing to run his fingers through his hair, sitting against the wall of the tub.

"Look like what?" he asked, looking at his reflection int he water before pulling his hands away, noticing the black color on them. "What on earth?" He grabbed a pitcher, filling it up with the water before standing out of the bath tub and rinsing out his hair, noticing the black film covering the floor. "Th-those girls." His bangs flopped into his face, no longer white quite the opposite. Black. Anger filled his face, the man growling before he gave a yell, stopping his short and silencing himself, closing his eyes and breathing as the lights in the room a very dark red. Calm, he was calm, he was fine, it was black hair, it would grow out. He'd have his white hair back soon.

"I'm going to skin those little brats." Brotherly love, that's all it was. "They turned my hair black!" He exclaimed toward Lily. "I can't have black hair! i abhor the color black!" And grabbing another shampoo bottle he poured a good amount into his hair, scrubbing angrily and rinsing it out, wincing as some got onto his eyes. "is it still black, Lily?" He asked, blinking away the soap.

Lily had to look away?! Was it that funny! This was horrible! Ears lowered as he rinsed off his hair a second time, slinking back into the tub, staring at Lily before looking at his reflection. "Does it at least look nice?' he muttered. He felt horrible, looked even worse, and his sister's wouldn't exist when he was through. The lights still held their dark red color, though it was slowly lessening as the prince was slowly coping with the reality, though he looked very unhappy about it.

Elliot placed an arm gently around Leo's shoulders, kissing himback gently before nuzzling the other's ear. "That would be cruel of me, and two wrongs do not make a right." With a sigh he looked back at his reflection. "I will have to learn to love it." Plus Leo liked it, so was it really that bad? If he thought him handsome Elliot supposed it wasn't so bad, adjusting his bangs and perking his ears.

silver eyes glanced down at Leo's shoulders, elbows and wrists, frowning as he grabbed the wash cloth and started to lather it. "You're in no position to move, allow me to wash you. I'll be gentle. If you moved with your limbs in such condition you'll only make them worse." And before the teen could argue he gently ran the cloth over the other's shoulders, beginning to bathe the other.

"Well even the servants have days off, why can't you take one off?" he questioned, chuckling. "You can still be with me, but one or two days a month you don't need to be a bentien. You can just be Lily." he had been about to say Leo, but Leo was still very sensitive on his name. The cloth ran down the teen's arm, washing the skin carefully and gently, even washing the hand and between the fingers before moving to the other arm, repeating the movements. "If tomorrow i find that the swelling has gone down considerably, then yes, you may wash me." And chuckled, kissing the back of his ear, the cloth going in small circles on Leo's back. Elliot actually enjoyed this, it was rather relaxing to wash someone. "Today can be your day off, I certainly won't be able to work properly." And he didn't want to show his hair color to the public just yet.

But it was somewhat sickening, Lily had bruises, the prince wanting to kiss them away, remove the filth that Leo carried, both physically and mentally. He didn't want the teen to feel so horrible. "Just lean back so I can wash your front, all right?" He questioned. Yes he was being a little bit selfish, he wanted to hold the boy, but he wasn't taking advantage of him, no. he was being a caring and kind person and bathing him. Adding a little bit more soap to the cloth he began to wash the front of Leo's shoulder's and chest, the Prime Minister's comment of how Elliot loved Leonard crossing his mind. "That old codger." he murmured. "We'll see if plum pudding saves his sorry soul."

"when you passed out the Prime Minister told me something which I find hard to believe. He's trying to tell me some gossip is all. Pay noo mind to it." And kissed the corner of the bentien's mouth, realizing there was a problem as he started to bathe the man's stomach. he had to problem washing Leo's legs at all, but would Leo mind Elliot washing his entire being? "if you wish for me to stop, just say so, all right? I don't want to make you uncomfortable." Even if the prince was comfortable, lazily holding Leo with one arm while washing him with a cloth in the other. He cared for his friend, he didn't want him to be hurt at all, he wanted to wash away all the hurt. But he was a mere prince, what could he do? Especially now that he had black hair.
