Amy had fallen into a dark sleep last night. She wasn't even sure she dreamed. She was so upset, so confused, so tired, that she just wanted to sleep away the world last night. Hell, she still did, but she physically could not sleep any longer. Besides, Thistle was beside her nuzzling her neck. She was trying to be gentle, but Amy also knew that she must be awful hungry right now. In a way, taking care of Thistle was helping to keep Amy from going into a mind-numbing, deep pit of sadness. Because of Thistle, she had to get up and take care of things.
As Amy got up, she sighed and transfigured her pajamas into a sweatshirt and jeans as she walked out of the bedroom. She went to the kitchen and began to make some eggs for Thistle. She owed her for not bringing home any food last night.
When the eggs were cooking on the stove top, Amy went and fed and watered Phoenix.
After washing her hands, Amy stared at the skillet full of eggs blankly. She didn't want to think. Thinking brought back very painful memories.
Amy wasn't sure Zephit came home last night or not. He wasn't at the home when she came back from MW. She had just woken up a little bit ago, so she didn't know if he had been here that morning or not. With both he and Karrie so upset last night, she was at a loss as to what to do. So, she settled on just not thinking.

((taking place at the park from this point))
A portal opens near a cluster of trees in the park near downtown GGG. Liada was right about it being a lovely day out so this would be perfect for Zephit to have his nap. She turns back to see how he was after closing the portal and smiles at him. You okay back there? Sometimes it takes people to adjust to traveling via portal.

"That was..." Zephit took a couple of uncertain steps, collapsing into Liada to prevent himself from falling over. The trip was really unexpected, and, "Absolutely fascinating."

Catching Zephit as he falls a bit and almost topples over herself. She laughs as she pulls him over to one of the trees and sits them both down. Yea it is kind of a rush. It'll get easier the more you go through it though. She smiled at him as she stroked his hair. How's this for a nap location?

Zephit leaned back against the tree, and stretched his legs out. The weather was nice, something he failed to notice before in his exhaustion. "It'll work nicely, I think, but it could be better."
Like a careful thief he draped an arm around her back, resting his hand on her side. He really couldn't help but pull her close, and kissed her cheek. "There. Now it is perfect."

She smiled and had a small blush on her cheeks before conjuring up a book to read while Zephit napped. Good, you just go ahead and fall asleep then hun. I'll let you know when I have to leave for the lab. She scratched behind his ears. Getting him to relax back to a snooze.

"It almost seems silly to sleep now." Zephit mentioned, but couldn't help feeling tired as she scratched his ears. He rested his head on Liada's shoulder.
"I've got you all to myself now. I should be spending time with you, or asking about your day." He yawned, struggling to keep awake.

Petting his head more she let him doze off. Just get some sleep hun you looked like you were gonna pass out hard back there and how are you supposed to take care of yourself if you fall on your face from passing out somewhere random? I'll be right here.
((Gonna have to wrap this up, getting ready to head to work here))

[[Yeah, we all have daytime activities~]]
"Okay, as long as you promise not to go anywhere." Zephit nodded against her shoulder, and closed his eye. Now that he was committed to the idea, it took him no time at all to fall asleep.

((yup and today's a split shift for me. woooot))
I told you I'd let you know when I go to the lab, until then, I won't go anywhere. Liada smiled as he finally fell asleep. She started reading her book and listened to Zeph snoring soundly for about an hr or so until her alarm on her phone went off. Closing her book she gently nudged Zeph letting her know she had to take off but that he could stay here and sleep more if he needed. Kissing his head she moved him lower to the ground to rest and opened a portal to take her to the lab. Ready for the busy day ahead.

[[Sounds thrilling. xP]]
Zephit hardly budged under her nudging, but still managed a light blush in response to her kiss. "You are so lovely, Liada..." More of a coincidence than a real reflex, as he was dreaming of kissing her at the same time. He only stirred for a moment after that before curling up on the grass to continue dreaming.

Zephit woke up in the park sometime later, feeling similar to a homeless person. Immediately he looked around for Liada, but checking the time realized she probably had to go to the lab. He was a little upset with himself for not waking up to kiss her goodbye, though he was sure he'd get the chance to make up for it later. Always hopeful, after all.
"I guess I should go back to Amy's. She might be worried about me." He stretched out with a yawn, attempting to regain the energy to stand. Then attempted to use his amazing sense of direction to return home. Hopefully.

[[Back to Amy's place for Zephit~]]
Returning to Amy's house, he found the door locked. Either she hadn't left yet that day, or she was out somewhere. Zephit paused at the door, thinking about leaving, but decided to unlock it and go inside. It turned out that no one was home, not even Phoenix who would've normally assaulted him by now. Her house was actually kind of unnerving when it was that empty.
"Guess I'll just take a shower and then check Aqua Springs." He told himself aloud, before undressing and climbing into the shower to clean up. Leaving his clothes in a trail through the house.

Zephit got out of the shower and quickly got dressed. Coming back into the rest of the house he remembered to pick up his clothes, and put them away in his room to be washed later. Then he left, locking the door behind himself, on his way to Aqua Springs.

Amy walked into her house with Phoenix and Thistle. She let Phoenix out of his cat carrier and then walked to the back of the house, into her room. The duffel bag from her trip, which was resting on the bed, taunted her, teased her. Nearly everything she'd need to live on the road again could fit into that bag. She could leave again and just leave all this crap and pain behind her, not that she wanted to expose Thistle to that kind of lifestyle, though.
Amy sighed, walked over to her dresser, opened one of the drawers, and took out her mother's spell book. She sat on the bed, opened it in her lap, and started to pour over it, absorbing as much of the symbols as she could.
