Yes she had been planning on it...and no, she hadn't said no...because she was quite sure that if she had, he wouldn't of pursued on the endeavor. Oh yes, she knew what she was in for. And yes, several hours later she gave him a smirk, a sated one but a smirk none the less, as he tossed back her dress. He had indeed done exactly what he had set out to do, now didn't he? "You think I can walk?" A little laugh and a scoff combined before she shook her head lightly at him. "Well that was..."
"Ooooh." Well that made perfect sense now didn't it. And good to know. Because she sure as hell didn't have any gifts. "Look out for the people who want to use you for gifts...if you have them." A little shrug as well after Meilikki's. "I guess you're right, that would indeed be rude. And being rude just isn't something you want to do." Another blink at her then a smile. "You should get to your food before it gets cold."

A slight smirk in return to hers.
"You prefer to lay here in the dirt of the arena floor? what woudl daddy thinkif he came in with mom to train or to have some time alone while your mother practiced her archery?"
Though he kneeled down to her eye level, and gave her a mischevious grin.
"Only samples. Our honeymoon...you'll not only be unable to walk or maybe even move..but you'll have no voice left. and we need to pack as well. and I'm sure you wish to have some more time with Meilikki, correct? maybe see if she's going to take that offer or stay here...since we need to know for our own trip."
Not to mentiondistract her while some of the ogres mine that lovely mithril vien from what was left of Tanundra..and the gold too. gold had it's uses.

"It's almost like outside, but not quite." Oh right dirt...great, now she was dirty...but still felt really good. Perhaps dirt wasn't so bad right now. Though a look at her dress...and that was a perfectly good dress too...and he ruined it. That figured now didn't it. A look back up to him as he kneeled down to her once more and the raise of an eyebrow at him. Only samples huh? Well that made the wheels turn as he made insinuations about thier honeymoon...though she expected nothing less from him really. Though a sigh as she got herself up, pulling a torn and dirty dress over her head, even it it was all torn in the back and what not. Good lord, if she looked bad before, she must look worse. "Packing yes, and a stop by to see Meilikki as well sounds appropriate as well...as soon as I get cleaned up a bit..."

She had already forgotten about the food. She nodded a bit. "Indeed. You did go to the trouble of bring it to me." She ate, although later she would not remeber what it was or what it tasted like. "How long his it been since...how long have I been indisposed?"

Keely was content to plop on the edge of the bed, kicking her feet, keeping Meilikki company as she usually did when it came to meal times. She liked spending time with the woman after all. Then Keely took on that thinking look a moment, counting in her head. "A few weeks at the least...maybe a month or a bit more at the most."

"A month..." and still she could not get over her friend, or get used to the light and lack of senses. "It is a long time for a grown woman to be moping around." She pressed the tips of her fingertips to her eyelids, which were swollen from crying. "Moving on is difficult. It is not...sometihng you can learn while growing up."

"Then we best get you cleaned up. and your dress will be fine. a little tailoring and it will be as good as it was when you first put it on."
But he got up, and offered his hand. hey she'd started it, she was going to finish it, and walk to their room in her dirty and torn dress. Of course slaves would know better than to stare or comment even in thier minds by now. thugh he was really starting to wonder where Fianna and Kieran were. not a sign or peep from them all day.

Still kicking her legs slightly. "Mama always said that moving on was something to be done at one's own pace." At least that's what Keely remembered after her father had died. "You're allowed to be upset and cry as much as you want, because that helps make it all better." A little nod, yes that's what she remembered hearing. Slipping off the bed she walked to the bathroom and grabbed a wash cloth, wetting it with cold water and wringing it out, bringing it back to Meilikki and holding it out. "Here, this will help."
Taking his hand she let him pull her open, only to take that rather interesting walk through the hallways and up to thier room. Oh what a sight that must be and the thoughts of others that accompanied it. Piper was sure that they were amusing. Well those that dared to do so, knowing Malvolence wasn't in Malik's immediate reach and he couldn't get to thier minds. Of course upon getting to thier room, she pulled off that dress and threw it at him. "You just want to explaore the rest of my wardrobe on me." But on into the cloest to grab something else to wear, and then the bathroom...Arena, check.

Duplicity. And here she'd thought that surface elves were just about always honest. Learned something new everyday now didn't we? Zahara leveled her gaze at him and shook her head. "I merely restated what you just told me to be true and now you are telling me that that's not true at all. You are hiding from your true feelings on the matter Arthur. Hiding things will get you killed down here." He'd held so much promise there a moment ago too. The whole conversation had been a test, a way to see if perhaps he might just might measure up to the drow in her life but alas he came close just not close enough. She wouldn't let him know that though. "Come on, I'll take you to him." Pushing herself agilely to her feet, she headed out of the room and down the hall a ways, through another corridor and to the left. "There's the tailor's workshop. Tell him what you want and he'll be sure to get it for you. And if you run into any problems, tell him you're a good friend of mine. He designed this for me so he's very good at his job." She ruffled his hair a bit to move it away from his ears once again and then started to walk away. Slowly she turned back and smiled, "And tell him that I thank him for everything he's done for me thus far. His workmanship is one of a kind. Truly." Once again she walked away, this time giong over things in her head. Truthfully, Arthur was trying to hide the way he felt and that displeased her. Telling her she was wrong wasn't the greatest move either. So, back to bugging Sevilin then. She walked downstairs and let her steps drift into the library until she was standing before Sevilin, hands on her hips, waiting.

Arthur paused for a moment as Zahara went off on how what he told her was the truth and now he's saying it isn't. Wait a minute...what? with everything that has happened his mind seemed to be lost so there was a confused expression on his face. He blinked a few times when the female drow said she would take him to the tailor and he followed still being confused over what he said to him. When they reached the tailor's place he listened closely to what she was telling him and he just gave her a small nod after she ruffled his hair. But before he went on to knock on the tailor's door his one eye watched Zahara as she left, his mind still trying to register what went wrong. What the hell just happened? with a groan of frustration he turned his head away and knock on the door, stuffing his hands into his pockets in anger as he got the feeling that he screwed up somehow.

And she was back...well he just felt like jumping for joy now didn't he? Yes...indeed. Half lounged on the couch, Nym on his knee, he resolved to finish his page before he would even acknowledge her. And he did just that, making her spend a good seven minutes just standing there before he marked his page and closed his book, looking to her now. "Yes?"

Should she tell him? Should she not...? That was the question pounding in her brain. Back home it wouldn't have mattered two bits who had fathered the child, if she even knew for sure, but here it mattered to her. She'd always wondered who her father was though it wasn't as hard as most had it since she had rare colored eyes. It annoyed her that he made her wait as long as he did and her eye was twitching while her boot was tapping towards the last three minutes. Finally she sighed loudly but even that didn't work. He was literally going to ignore her...until he put down his book and inquired just why she was standing there. "I...Are you going to stay mad at me for the rest of the day or are you going to get over it anytime soon?" Dammit. That was not what she had wanted to ask. "No..." Why was this so hard?

"Not true. though the thought is appealing."
The outfit handed off to a slave for delivery to the tailor. and a piece of paper and quill, writing down things that are probably needed, things that must come with, and the items that you might want to take but don't need to take.

A bit while later Arthur walked out of the tailor's shop with a little smile on his face. He had a new shirt in the works and could come back in about an hour or so to get it, he had a small rough start since he was new but once he mentioned Zahara's name the man accepted him kindly. Of course before anything else could happen Arthur gave them man Zahara's message and they went to work. Of course he was asking for a shirt which the tailor said he had no problem to make all he needed was Arthur measurements and what Arthur wanted customized on it. Once the measurements were made the only special thing he wanted on his shirt was a gold thread around the cuff of his sleeves and the bottom of his shirt
When all was said and done Arthur decided to grab his sword and train for awhile, where to go he didn't know so he quickly went to his room and grabbed his blade before heading back down the same direction he came.

A little shrug, "I'm over it." He didn't entertain grudges very long. He saw no point in it...just a waste of energy and thinking power. And as far as Sevilin was concerned those were two things that shouldn't be wasted as one pleased. Who knew when you might need them both? Wanted to have them at full capacity should the need arise. "Anything else?" He was pretty sure she didn't stand there for seven minutes for just that. Afterall, why would she care if he was mad at her or not.
Didn't take her long to clean up, and soon enough she came out of the bathroon, once again dressed. Walking over to him, she watched him write down things as he pleased, shaking her head a little. Really, he was overly paranoid sometimes. "Of course it is to you...anytime you see me in a dress with worthwhile." A tap of her finger on her lips a moment in her own thought. Well damn she was going to have to bring some fancy attire wasn't she? Council...wasn't looking forward to it. But for now she contened herself infront of the mirror on the dresser top, fixing her hair...though of course she was doing a little too much care to making sure that ear of hers was hidden...hard to pull off without her bandana, seeing as the left full one poked out through red and silver and the other halfed didn't. Was a thing to make people wonder. "Remember, only half a room and a bedside table."
