(( Yay))
After spending some time in his office, Ben heads back out in to the tavern to notice that Synge has not moved. He approaches quietly and watches you sleep.

*Synge had fallen asleep very easily and had sleep just as peacefully the whole time Ben was away. She didn't experience her usual troubles sleeping and wasn't wakened by jolting dreams for once in a long time. Her face showed this, it was serene and almost angelic looking. It was quite different than her usual personality would let her show, it was a side of her not seen by anyone, even herself, in a long time. After a few minutes of being watched she slowly started to wake up, as she shifted on the couch letting the now dry cloth fall to the ground and her face turned towards Ben. Her eyes slowly opened to see Ben near her, but she was not startled. She opened her eyes all the way and turned away from his gaze and yawned.*
I was looking forward to using that bell, but now that you are here I guess I can't.

Happily, Ben approaches you and comes to your bedside.
So how does your fever and pain feel?
He gently reaches the backside of his hand to your forehead and feels the temperature.

*Synge allows Ben to check her fever without any protest, but does feel a bit strange having him touch her so suddenly. Her forehead felt normal, clearly her fever had gone down thanks to his taking care of her. He couldn't feel her pain by simply touching her forehead, but she felt none at the moment and was glad.*
Hmm, no pain and I think the fever is gone. At least, I don't think I feel very warm, what do you think?

He nods and takes his hand back down from your forehead and for a moment realizes what he has done.
Oh..I guess I should have..you know asked...but you don't feel hot anymore, in fact, you might be getting a bit cold.
He smiles and takes the basin and water back to the kitchen. You can hear the sounds of him dumping the water and putting the bucket away before he comes back to the main area and sits near you.

*She shrugs casually before you take the water away, as if to say she didn't mind you not asking. While you are gone she notes that she is a bit cold and sits up on the couch looking for her stuff. Spotting it she grabs her stockings and slips them on, instantly feeling just warm enough. She leaves the rest of her things neatly on the floor where you had placed them before. When you return she is sitting up with her stockings on looking much healthier than before.*
I feel a lot better actually, thanks for that.

Ben notices you are stockinged and smiles, he was happy to see you were feeling healthy again and looking healthy as well. He notes the rest of the items on the floor but decides it is best to leave them where they are.
Eh...I mean...it's no big deal...You needed help and I could help you, its only fair that I would. 'Course, I was gonna reccomend the spa next but looks like you have the warmth covered.
He stood up and headed to the kitchen, pausing a moment.
I am getting some water... you, uh, need anything?

*Synge looks down at her stockings and pulls on each to make them even. She looks up when the spa is mentioned again.*
I don't know about spas really, so I don't know if I'd have much fun.
*She nods when you mention that you are getting some water.*
Water would be nice actually.

Ben laughs as he gathers some water in two glasses and brings them to the table.
Well, I suppose that's true...I mean it basically is a nice hot tub with therapeutic jets. I just hate that I am the only one that uses it...heh.
He takes a seat and decides to let you carry the conversation this time.

*She takes the glass from the table and drinks some of it before setting it back on the table.*
Hmm, that sounds interesting. Where is it at anyway? I don't think I've seen anything like that around here...Can you show me? I think a little walking around might wake me up a bit more. Oh, and you never showed me that library you told me about the first day I came in here, do you remember?

He nods and then gets to his feet he reaches a hand to help you up in case you are not quite ready to walk yet. Once you are on your feet he walks you down the hall.Well, it is handy in that they are right next to each other...this way. He leads you down the hall where he normall vanishes to and opens the first door on the left. It opens to the smell of books and new furniture. Here's the library.

*Her initial thought is to ignore your hand, but remembers your words from before and lets herself be helped up with your hand, but quickly lets go once she is standing. She leaves her shoes where they are with the rest of her things, thinking she doesn't really need them right now. She follows him down the hall, she had been here for a while but hadn't really explored the new layout at all for some reason. Once the door to the library is opened and she steps inside she is instantly impressed as the smell of books fills her. She had always loved books because they took her away from life, but she had never been around a large number. She goes over to the shelves and examines them and pulls one out and starts flipping through it.*
Oh, there is a copy of Grimm's Fairytales! I love these.
*She stops after looking through a few, realizing she must seem very strange to act like this suddenly. Putting the book away she turns back to you.*
Anyway, I'll be sure to come back here sometime to read some. You have a good collection it seems.

This interchange and the strangeness of your sudden let go of his hand seems to be only minor notice to him. He doesn't make any more of a point than this. He watches you as you seem happy with the books and likes seeing the lighter side of you for once.
Well...I do try to bring stuff I would want to read...you know...but you are welcome to hang out here all you want. You can even stay here a little if you wanted.

*She looks back at the books for a moment, as if considering what he is saying. The truth is she didn't want to waste time that she could share with another person. She would save the books for when she was lonely, now was not the time. She turned back to and walked towards the door.*
Not now, I want to see that spa you were talking about next.

*He smiles and then walks out of the area and into the next. You find the air in here is much warmer than it is in the other room. There is a fresh looking pool here and a nice spa right near it. He shows you the pool and then the spa.Here you are! The pool was just as he had promised it was, a simple and clean pool. But the spa was a bit nicer, it was laid in shiny rock and seemed to be quite luxurious.
