"Technically Nino going missing was what set Madriana off on killing us all, so don't take all the blame, Sue," Lyre called to the nomad and emerged from the kitchen with a warm mug of tea in her hands, heading into the room where Nino was resting.
"Here, Nino..." she placed the tea on the floor next to the guild leader. She leaned against the wall near her, glaring slightly at Aran.
"Don't bombard her with things, it's more than obvious that she's been through hell." The cat warrior didn't seem to be overly happy. Well, no one should have been ecstatic after going through what they'd all gone through.

Earlier she'd been running completely on adrenaline. Now she ran on nothing. She got up, painfully, picked up the tea with a quiet "Thank you Lyre." and went to where Rhys was, peeking out from behind Sue. "Rhys." She said quietly. "How're you?"
My fault... If I hadn't left the dungeon...

Misuki Marishima "R-Rhys!" Sue looked panicked, unsure what to do. It's not like she was a healer or anything... illnesses weren't something she witness every day. "Never mind! I should ask another healer... don't overexert yourself!" Rhys frowned. "If there's one thing in this world that I absolutely hate, it's being reminded of my own weakness. I hate weakness in any form... not that I'm angry at you, Sue," he added, then took a breath to finish his sentence... then paused to gulp something down, his face turning brighter shades of white. "...Bcket, pliss."

What an odd question to ask him. If Saturnos didn't know any better, she was practically giving it away, saying things like that. Even so, Saturnos was asked a question that there was only one answer to.
"'Betrayal' does not exist in the vocabulary of a Proxian. We live and die by our code, which is bound by honor. Lady Nino, whom you people informally refer to so casually, is an ally of mine. The Proxian Code dictates that I protect her intrests, and I have dedicated my honor to the task. You couldn't begin to imagine the loyalty of a Proxian, much less myself."

((All but me...))
"Rhys, just rest. Leave everything to us. On another note, are you okay, Nino?"

"Living, Valter." She said, a bit louder.

Oh, for goddess' sakes...
Yet at that moment, Rhys saw it. A bucket! I'm saved!
Rhys pointed at the bucket, swallowing more rapidly this time.

"Bucket?" said Nino cluelessly. She looked at the bucket. She picked it up, and handed it to Sue to hand to Rhys.

Oh, for the love of--!
Bolting upright as fast as any Myrmidon (screaming muscles be damned), Rhys lunged, grabbed the bucket from Sue, and vomited spectacularly into the bucket, the sickness finally purging itself. He retched a few more times there on the floor, shaking miserably, eyes wet with tears.
"...When I point to a bucket... I MEAN IT," Rhys finished before retching again.

{Edit, we posted at the same time, Rhys!}
"I-I'm sorry!" Sue could only stutter at what was a very awkward moment with her comrade. She really had nothing else to say...

Nino blinked, surprised. "Rhys! Ugh... Ooh..." Nino faints.

"Do you mind?" a voice mumbled from the corner.
Soren stirred, sitting up in the bed he had been placed in. He rubbed his eye with a soft exhale, having been woken from slumber by the sound of Rhys's upchuck episode. He still appeared unruly and wounded, but Soren believed he had rested enough after such a stressful event.
His eyes settled on Nino. Soren took a few minutes to register she was truly alive and in safe hands, then glanced away and slipped out of bed, swaying on his feet from disorientation as he made contact with the floor. He could be assured that progress had been made, that he was a bit closer to reaching his goal. A heavy weight had fallen but he still burdened many others.
"I need to go back," he stated, addressing no one else with his tired yet livening eyes.

(I would like to note I'm not responsible for any retching IRL. razz )
Finally done, Rhys wiped his mouth on his white coat sleeve, not particularly caring if it was stained or not.
"Thanks..." he said, making an effort to climb back to bed, leaving the barf bucket behind. "Sorry about that. I'll be okay for... a little while, I think."
