Getting up, after marking his page, he stepped over to her, and touched two fingers under her chin, tilting her head back...sure that would only make blood drain into her throat but hey, there was no complaining if hse wanted to see about this. A little shake of his head and a healing rune drawn. "Go sit down...you need to recoup a little or it'll just start again." Meaning of course she was going to have to get her enery levels back up to trick a rune affected body into letting up the internal stress it was causing itself by trying to suck energy from anywhere it could.

"I know you don't think of me like that."
He reached out and took her hand lightly, giving it a little squeeze.
"I'm just afraid. Afraid that our son or daughter will see me like that. Will see me do something, and curse me for it and want nothing to do with me. I don't care if Arthur sees me as a sadistic b*****d, or Sevilin or Zahara. But I don't want to see my child look at me like that if I can help it."
Running his other hand through his hair.
"I may not use the best methods, and many times those methods are harsh and unforgiving...but I am not a sadist. I don't revel in the pain of those under my House, in my service or care. I save that for those that are my enemies. And I don't want my child to think he is my enemy."

"Now do believe when I say I'm going to mean this in the most loving way possible. Malik, you are two faced. You present one thing to one and then another to someone else. Take me for example, or my parents...you strive to not let us see that harsher side to you. And in doing so, you're probably just all building it up...and when you do find someone that you aren't afraid of the impression you will make, you let them have all of that harshness that you hide. And not everyone knows that or understands that...and you know how important it is to your peace of mind that you appear a certain way to others. But no, you're not a sadist, you're just...rough around the edges." Piper sighed lightly and twined thier fingers together of the hand he held before reaching her other hand over and turning his head so he was looking at her. "You don't have to be afraid of that Malik...you'd be surprised how much you've actually changed, regardless of how you think you haven't. Love changes people, as does family. I know you, you'll do your damnest to be the hero in this child's eyes just like you strive to be in mine. You just need to pick and choose your battles a little better. Not everyone needs to learn a harsh lesson by your hand, because their inexperience will eventually come back and get them. Not every transgression needs to be given a response. If that were the case...well then you'd never have a stress free day in your life, and neither would I for that matter." Giving him one of those reassuring Piper smiles. "And if it so happens that you do do something in front of our child that you would regret or think it would be cast you in bad light...you can't just turn away. You have to give rhyme and reason to your actions Malik...not everyone is a telepath after all."

"Well the original idea is that they only transgress once."
though a slight grin to her.
"there are times, you seem to know me far to well. You sure you and Kieran aren't running some kind of journal ridden study about me when I'm not with you?"
A slight chuckle to her, moving her lunch and scooting over by her, putting thier hands on her belly, the other on her thigh, before leaning over for a little kiss to her.
"You know, there are days I wonder how I managed to stay sane before I met you."

" Sometimes once isn't enough to learn a lesson. Forcing that lesson doesn't help it either." Giving a little nod then and the barest of a smile. "We always know others better than ourselves, but don't worry there's no journals hidden under the mattress or anything. I may be quiet, but I'm learning far more than I let on when I am." Seemed that had put him back in a bit better spirits...not that she knew where that came from, another one of her moments in time she guessed. Didn't matter, the important thing was that it helped. Though at him making movements to her food, she thought for a moment she was going to get a fuss out about not eating...but really who could eat with being a wreck? It wouldn't of stayed down. But it seemed affection was his only intention as hands touched to her stomach and thigh, and his lips on her own. She'd take it, thus indulging in that moment for a beat. Sure, there was that self conciousness with his touching at the back of her mind, but now wasn't the time to let that win. A little chuckle to him. "Define sane and then ask yourself that question...or rather define living...for those who aren't living life cannot be insane to begin with." A little pleased smile at that before a quick blink as if something had just occured to her before that look disappeared and melted into a smile. "Here, feel." Thus moving the hands they still had twined together to another spot on her stomach, where indeed movement could be felt outward from what was inside. Nothing like being kicked at from the inside, eh?

She choked as the blood drained down the back of her throat and jerked away from him frowning. Or at least she tried to jerk away but after he held her fast and runed her she had to admit that he would be the one to know what to do. It would be much better for her if she just followed what he said. Admitting she was fatigued was never one of her strong points, but the truth of it was, she felt like she was going to pass out. Just having Zykariel a little over a day ago had already drained her down but adding the fight to it, well it had seriously drained her. She walked over to the chair in the room and plopped down in the chair, dropping her head to her knees.

A confused look at her blink...then she moved his hand with hers, and felt that kick. well that was something worth feeling, wasn't it.
"well that's something you don't feel everyday. Hopefully that's just a 'I'm here and okay' kick and not a 'quit jabbering and feed me' kick."
A small smile to her.
"want to try and get something down? or want me to get you something to drink maybe?"

Okay he'd internally admit it, she'd done pretty well if all she got was the first level of rune vengence thrown on her person. Then again that was easy to get if you weren't careful, Sevilin was still prone to those when he wasn't paying attention. But a mere nod as he watch her go sit down...though he had expected her to want to go to her own room...and then went right back to his book. No need to lecture her or anything, what was the point? Zahara would do what Zahara wanted to do. "You'll feel fine in a few hours."
"Tell me about it, you're not the one being kicked at." A little smile. "That would be the, 'there are things happening out there and I am restless' kick. Does that quite a bit these days." Yeah she was used to it by now, didn't mean it was always fully enjoyable. Though then she saw where he was going with that one and she looked to the food he has pushed aside earlier and she had pretty much ignored. Oops...well it was there fault. "I know, I said I'd eat to your standards. Pass it over..." Then a little snicker. "And I can't have what I would ask for as far as drinks go...so I'll just be good."

A smirk at her, passing over the food.
"I know, your dying for some spicy Tier'dal bloodwyne. which is why I told Zahara not to touch it...of there'd be nothing left when you were allowed to have it."
A chuckle at that.
"So. how are things progressing on your new pet project?"

"Feel better?" Okay so fine, she'd eat...it would probably stay down now seeing as there was not bond stress at the moment. "Oh how you do tempt me with things of such a manner knowing I still can't touch it for quite a while. I do think I'm starting to miss things that I took for granted..." Oh yes one of those little almost longing sighs of hers. Rough housing, wine, and non awkward sex. Eating at her food some before leaning back on him some against his shoulder. "Pet project? Which one? The house, the horses, my personal quest to be positive? There's a lot these days A'mael. Though I could indeed give a general answer of 'rather well' and cover it all. Perhaps a little stifled feeling though."

"Yes stifled. You would be too." A little nod. "Good, because I can't have you feeling bad, makes me feel bad and then the baby feels bad. Like dominos. And I was thinking about just rebuilding them completely...but you know, bigger and better and what not...more open sorta...the horses of course...well I need more of those...though there is Zahara's..." A breif little pause. "And the nursery...well I have new best friends who are just eager to do my bidding." A smile. "Though I do say I'm more pleased with your own little business...I told you there were more than slaves."

"Meilikki was Kimmuriel's heir, so naturally everything the drow did not value was tosed on her." Cedric said softly.
"We could talk to him, but that does not mean that he will want to understand. The White Vah may simply be in a state of shock, and may just need more time to understand that he is alive."
"Probably, as an elf may watch a fellow die of old age, Your twin is suffering the disconnection between races." Cedric did not seem keen on the idea of interferring with Moonstone's emotional problems. He could show you volumns of books that suggest that the best cure for most ailments, is oneself.
"Warhammer could probably sympathise with him, though."

A few hours, joy. She knew she wouldn't get the complete effect of a level one rune overdose because she hadn't overdosed. Malik's energy drain had been responsible for her nosebleed, not her own doing. She did feel tired though and lightheaded from the loss of blood but after a little while, adn of course the red stuff staying where it belonged, well she'd be just fine. Meanwhile she could observe Zykariel or read a book or just sit there. No movement in the crib so she assumed he was in reverie. Did she feel like getting up just yet? Nope. Moving the chair just a bit so it was better situated to view certain things she lifted her head and leaned it back against the wall, closing her eyes. At least she was clean and had white hair again. One of her biggest pet peeves, dirty hair.
