Alyosha nodded and got to his feet. He walked through to the other room, beckoning for 'kiro to follow. Looking along his shelves he found a large book, a tome even, which contained glossy photos of thousands of species and their coats, traits etc. It was meant for zoologists and suited this purpose well.
He handed the huge book to 'kiro. "You should probably get started soon, Kiro-kun" he grinned.

Sy was feeling a bit better today. She had worked the night shift last night after not being able to sleep which had caused her to be so tired that the congestion didn't keep her awake. Having just woken up and needing something to soothe her throat, she exited her room with slightly rumpled clothes and dishevelled hair.
Ugh. Thank the gods no one was around yet. Plodding towards the kitchen she had no sense of what time of day it was.

As Sy walked by Orian's door, he walked out, bumping into Sy, wearing just a pair of grey silk pants, his hair dripping wet from the bath he had managed earlier, no shirt on, revealing the faint network of scars across his chest. "Gah. Sorry M'lady. Didn't see you there"

She stumbled back more in startlement than anything else and turned bright red, averting her eyes. The things men did, leaving their rooms half-dressed. At least she had the excuse of being a little under the weather for her absent-mindedness. Careful not to look at him she waved off the action and coughws and sputtered at the wall while she checked her pockets for tissues or a kerchief.
Wonderful. This was gonna be just a wonderful day.

Grinning widely, Kiro took the thick book from Alyosha, still keeping a gentle but firm grip on the fluff. It was times like this he really seemed his sixteen years and not a year older. "I can borrow this...?" Almost like a kid at Christmas. Or as good as anyway, he was getting to leaf through a whole new book. Goodness knew he wasn't going to stick to the parts he 'needed'.

Alyosha nodded "Yes, keep it as long as you like, I haven't used it in years. I have several other books on the subject"
"Well, on that note I guess I should get back to my own work." he smiled at Kiro. Feel free to work in my rooms or wherever you like, my door is always open.

Orian smiled, and reached into one pocket, pulling out a silk handkerchief, holding it out to Sy. "Here you go. One moment" Dashing back into his room, he came back out wearing a shirt to match the pants, though he left it unbuttoned in the heat.

Regaining her composure once he re-emerged with his shirt, she politely handed him back his handkercheif and drew a huge wad of tissues from her pocket and wiped her nose. This wasn't a good start to a day... she had already mauled someone and probably subjected them to her hideous cold.
"No, ith was mah faul'," she murmured back bashfully as she started to shamble towards the kitchen. Despite the heat, she had a hankering for something hot... perhaps tea?

"Are you okay Miss? You don't sound to great." He gently takes her arm, helping her along to the kitchen. "What you need is a good bowl of soup, and some tea. Here, sit down, and i'll get them for you." He pulled out a chair for Sy, waiting till she sat to bustle off to the kitchen to whip up some food and drink.

@___@ He was... serving her? Coughing a little in sheer embarassment she sat down and wondered idly when the last time that anyone had in any way tried to nurse her back to health from anything. Maybe Sydney... when Dragon was gone...? Wasn't that at least a year ago? Oh well, wasn't like she got sick often... but this was embarassing nonetheless. She wasn't crippled... she could serve herself.
"Bu'.... bu' I can do ith!" she protested as she called out to him, clutching her limp lump of tissues.

Smiling a little as he came back, he set the bowl of soup, and a mug of tea in front of Sy, lifting her hand to kiss it. "Na. Its my pleasure to help you out M'lady. Now, if you will excuse me, i'm going to go get properly dressed. Talk to you later!" He scurries back to his room, wistling a little bit.

Sy had fallen asleep in the centre after she had come in earlier for some food. A cooled tea was by her stiff arm on which her head lay. Her other arm was coiled around an empty bowl and a paper mask she had been wearing to spare others from her sickness... of course she had taken this off to eat and fallen asleep before it was put back on.
Snoring softly from obvious congestion and looking perhaps a little worn for wear, she snoozed in the centre, oblivious to where she was.

Orian walked back into the main room, this time dressed in black as sin jeans, with a midnight blue button up silk shirt, which was unbuttoned to allow for the heat, though it didn't seem to bother him through the jeans. He gently disengaged Sy's arms from the bowl and cup, taking them into the kitchen to clean them, and then sitting next to her, gently tapping her shoulder. "M'lady, if you sleep here, your going to get stiff."

Sy mumbled something incoherent, lifted her head a smidgen, opened one eye, and promptly went back to her sleeping position, although her breathing wasn't so deep. She obviously didn't comprehend what he had said or she was in the centre...
actually, she was having a rather pleasant dream in which her sinuses were remarkably clear and she just happened to be on a nude beach full of pleasant men and no other women.

Chuckling a little, Orian gently worked Sy out from behind the table, lifting her gently in his arms, carrying her down the hall, using one hand to open the door to her room as he balanced her gently, before carrying her in, laying her on the bed, tucking her in.
