((Fluff. x_x))
Eveel went: "ew" as Tamuril kissed Takara, the dragon rubbing his snout with a paw before jumping off of the bed so he couldn't see. Takara brought her own hand up and placed it on Tamuril's shoulder, responding by softly kissing him back. Her eyes didn't close, her eyelids simply lowering and locking onto Tamuril's cheeks. Her vision was blurred since he was so close, though that didn't bother her. Then she did close her eyes, holding the kiss for just a bit longer before she slowly pulled back and then put her cheek against his neck. She could hear the pulse beating in his neck, another sign that he was really alive. In this was a dream, she wasn't sure if she wanted it to end or not. Being with Tamuril was wonderful, but if it was just a lie what would be the point? But as she took in a breath and smelt Tamuril's scent, she knew that it wasn't. However part of her mind still clung to this being a dream, even though Takara pushed it down to the bottom of her mind.
There were many, many things that Takara needed to take care of right now. But she didn't want to, not now, she wanted to be with Tamuril. This was another reason she hated being queen. The council was probably handling things right now, and they might even reject Takara's help after hearing of Takara's small outburst. Now Takara was reminded of exactly what she'd done to her room after she'd learned that Tamuril had "died." First she knocked something over and then wind had appeared and literally ripped up everything in the room. And now almost all of Trusar knew of her outburst, her loss of emotions. Takara closed her eyes, taking in a deep breath and then letting it out very slowly. Who knew what would come of that?
"You should get some sleep." Takara whispered softly as her eyes reopened.

((O_o))
Tamuril wrapped both of his arms behind her back, with drawing his hands underneath Takara's long and silky hair. His head lightly rested against the side of hers. She, like usual, was quite warm; Her soft, warm lips, her soft hands and her cheeks. It was pleasent to Tamuril, pleasent and wanted. He didn't want ti to end, but he knew it would. At least both of them together, and alive.
His hands went down to her hips, and lightly pushed her back, just enough so their eyes could look at eachother. His over confident smile, combined with his shut eyes, showed that he didn't want rest. "Bah! I don't sleep!" His arms went up and crossed over his chest, as he began to nod to himself. Doing this reminded him of something, the pendant. It was no long a burden, he was free of it. "Hey, look at this." He unbuttoned his shirt, and pointed to his chest. The skin, where the pendant had been, was back to normal. It was like that pendant had never attached itself to Tamuril. "No pendant. It must have fallen off."
Tamuril moved his legs so they were over the bed. His hands grippened on the edge of it, as his over-confident grin came back. "And I'll prove I don't need any rest!" He said, before he leapt off the bed. At first, for maybe a seconds, he was walking. That didn't last for long though. HIs legs seemed to collapds on themselves, and his body descended at a quickened paace towards the floor. He hit the wall, and slowly fell to the ground.
Tamuril turned himself to look at Takara, who was probably a little annoyed with Tamuril for doing. His hand came up and rubbed the back of his head, as he tried to luagh the incident off. 'A-ha-ah-ha. Wasn't expecting that to happen!" Tamuril said as he chuckled. He wasn't hurt, obviously, but he was still a little weak in the legs. His hand raised and grabbed the top of a crutch that was leaning against the wall. He pulled himself up and grabbed the other one. Luckily he didn't have to change, the healers had already put him into some of his clean clothes.
"You probably got some stuff to do, so go do it. I'll walk around with these for awhile." Tamuril said, straightening himself. The crutches seemed to be a perfect size for him, like the healers had ordered their production right when he was found to be alive.

((D: ))
Takara sat up when Tamuril had gotten up, watching him move slowly along until he finally fell over. Eveel let out a yelp, nearly getting stepped on but moving before Tamuril would be able to land on him. Takara set her feet on the floor and went over to help the knight, but he was already up once she was next to him. She frowned at his words, knowing that they were true but not wanting to leave. She stepped in front of him, then wrapped her arms around his waist and hugged him softly so she wouldn't hurt him. Tamuril was always ready to get up and go, but Takara wanted to at least once be able to just stop time and do what she wanted to do. Now she reluctantly drew her arms back, pecking Tamuril's cheek and then turning away.
"Watch after Tamuril and be sure that he does not do anything bad." Takara told Eveel, the dragon tilting his head as he nodded and then taking his place beside Tamuril. With that said Takara smiled at Tamuril, then turned around and left the room. Eveel looked up at Tamuril and giggled, saying this: "I'm gonna watch after you to be sure that you don't be a bad boy for Mommy!"
Takara went down the hall, her expression turning emotionless as she walked. Then someone stopped her, dropping down and telling her that two travelers wanted to see her. Takara simply answered in monotone to bring them to the private library near where her old room had been. The man nodded and bowed before he left, Takara going to where she had just mentioned and sitting down in a chair, quickly beginning her work. It was very difficult to conscentrate with Tamuril constantly in her mind, hoping that he would be all right. But nothing showed that she was worried, only her thoughts saying this.

Soon he jumped out of the tree and started to wonder the castle, his mind preoccupied. His body just seemed to move out of way for when people walked up to him. He saw the occasional wounded soldier, and some healers who wanted him to go to the infirmary. He flatly refused, the healers just shaking their heads since they couldn't do anything because he still held his claymores. Till finally a female healer stopped him and told him to go to the infirmary. When he said no, she pushed him back a coupe of steps. Which was something since she was about half his size, but since seeing that someone her size could easily push him. He wielded to her guiding hand since he didn't know where the closest one was. When he was bustled into one, he saw Sir Tamuril and the dragon inside. He went to bow to him, but was quickly cut off by the small healer. She did a quick curtsy while he sat down on a table. She told him sternly to take his shirt off, so he did. Revealing the various scars he had obtained through the years of fighting and wars, and the numerous cuts and stabs he had obtained in the las encounter. She started to probe, clean, and dress the wounds. His brows only furrowing a tiny bit whenever she touched a tender spot. "Now, rest for the time being." She said when she was finished. "And no getting up and leaving either." She said as she left. He sighed heavily as he leaned his claymores against the bed.

Takara now lowered her paper, book, and writing pin, setting it down on the table as the two came into the room. Her back was already strait and her face and eyes were empty and frozen. She looked up at them, listening to the whispers that were coming from the diamond of air. The diamond itself was hidden underneath her dress since it was cracked, seeing how it would draw more attention than Takara would want. The diamond fire had joined the air jewel on the necklace, along with the diamond of water that Takara had taken from the King of Ehsar after she'd killed him. But none of them could seen underneath the top of her dress, only the golden chain that dipped over her collar bones and then down the dress hinted that they were there.
"What is it that you want?" Takara asked flatly, the sixteen-year-old queen's icy sapphire looking between the two. The messager stepped out of the room, shutting the door and then going down the hall to take care of other duties.

After a lot of asking around, Cedric was finally informed that she was in the library, but was already entertaining visitors. He had taken that moment to vent his anger on the wall, leaving a lovely little crater in it before walking away with bloody, cut-up knuckles. At the moment, though, nothing mattered except speaking to her. He HAD to know. So he found the library and opened the door without asking permission, closed it and listened to the closing of a rather lavish story." This was going to be his final wait, so he leaned back against the wall and did just that, with as much patience as he could muster for the moment.

"I see." Takara answered to Cell, her voice still empty of any emotion whatsoever. "So you have come to deliver this message to me, for what point? Unless you actually saw an end none of this matters to me."
Now Takara turned her head, looking past to and over at Cedric simply to show that she'd noticed he had come in. She was surprised to see him, seeing how he'd disappeared for... well, who knew how long it had been. But she didn't look surprised, only looking up at him as if to see who it was in a dry fasion. Her eyes just lingered on him for a moment, half wondering where he had gone before returning her eyes to the one who kept the wrap over his eyes. Two of the three diamonds did not speak, save for one, the diamond of air. The diamond of air was almost always talking to her, whispering things into her mind with no voice yet Takara could hear it. Yet even without it Takara was capable of taking care of herself in the current moment.
"And do not consider me to be someone who will believe everything that she hears. I am not an idiot." Takara added once her eyes were securely on Cell, looking at his face as she spoke. "I can tell the difference from a story teller from someone who speaks the truth. Unless you have something else to show or ask me I would like for you to leave so I can continue on with my day."
As the words left her lips Takara simply reminded herself not to call Cedric "Cedric." That was what Domicus had called him, wasn't it? Yes, it had been. But she would just stick to calling him Anon. After all, Anon's name was his own business, something that Takara wouldn't interfear with. Her mind really only focused on this for a second, it was just a reminder linked with other thoughts that came in all at once. And even during that time she still stayed aware of what was happening, looking at the two men who were before her at once.

Tamuril sighed lightly as he watched Takara leave. He didn't want her to leave him, but it had to be done. He slowly moved his feet, and the crutches moving with them. He finally got to the door, and left the room. At first he wasn't used to the crutches, but slowly got used it.
Tamuril walked, with the aid of crutches, through the halls of the castle. Every person he came across would walk up to him and talk to him. Most of them were amazed he was still alive, while others said they knew that something like that would happen. Eevel was chirping on his shoulder. Thoughts of Takara were still lingering in his head though. He wanted to ge see her, but it had been less than twenty minutes, he'd have to wait.
Tamuril opened the door to his room. HIs sword was placed on a desk in the corner, and his bed had been fixed for him. Obviously they hadn't cleared the room yet, or they had merely put everything back in already. He walked up to his bed, and released the crutches, placing them on the side of the bed. Tamuril sat down on the bed, his back falling back on to it. His eyes stared up to the celing. "I wonder how Takara is doing..." Tamuril said to Eveel. He didn't even know where Eveel was, he jsut talked openly into the room assuming Eveel was somewhere inside.

"I already told you that I can tell the difference between a story teller and someone who speaks the truth." Takara repeated as she looked away from Cell and down at her papers. She would have to continue working on those later. For now, she would just deal with what was at hand now and wait. She faced him again, her hands folding on her lap. "Leave my castle and take your stories with you. I may not be able to completely peer into you, but I know when someone lies. Perhaps you can entertain people but you do not entertain me. The diamond of air tells me the truth, you however do not. Air is wisdom and shows what is pure, which is what the jewel shows. I can handle my army well enough without your auguries."
-----
Eveel whistled back at Tamuril before jumped up on the bed, tilting his head. Then he went up towards the knight's face and leaned over, the tip of his snout touching the tip of Tamuril's nose. Then the dragon pulled back, looking at the pointed ears and tilting his head over further.
"Your ears are funny." Eveel commented as he laid himself down against the ground and poked Tamuril's ears. "It's pointed! Oo, neat! Why is it pointed like that? Did Alexia accidently drop you when she made you and so your ears turned out funny? Or, or, are they melted that way?"
Eveel crawled closer and then blew into Tamuril's ear as hard as he could, giggling.

Normally, Cedric would have waited patiently for them to finish the disagreement and then approach Takara. Instead, he did the near opposite. He took both of the men by their collars and escorted them out the doors. "Sorry," he muttered, "But there are some prominent, private discussions that require immediate attention. If you'll excuse me..." He stepped back into the library and closed the doors. Now he faced Takara and approached the table. "Will you answer one question for me, Lady Takara: Did you kill the Ehsar king?"
