Video - Day 386

[teenyoda]

[Stiles' face shows up on the screen and he's looking maybe just a little worse for wear. There's lines around his eyes and he looks like he hasn't been sleeping well.]

So, the timing on this could be better. I'll be jumping on the wagon to Alfheim tomorrow morning and, um, I need a favor.

[He really should have locked this from his dad, but he hadn't really been on his game when he'd decided to make this.]

Could someone come in and check up on Scott while I'm gone? He went all grey and we can't find his bracelet. I've got him sort of... tied up to his bed, but I need someone to come by and make sure he eats and uh, you know, bathroom stuff.

[Anyone who knew him could see this wasn't an easy thing to ask. Someone was feeling especially guilty at the moment.]

I can't leave him like that, so if no one can do it, I'll just have to, ah, let him go. But with all this going on right now...

I'd just really appreciate a little help. I'll owe someone. Hugely.

[There's a pause, then Stiles looks directly into the screen instead of letting his eyes jump all around it.]

Please.

You mean a girl like you? But you seem awfully nice, I do not see why girls would not want to be courted by you. [She realizes this sounded really awkward because she just met him, and blushes terribly.

Feeling more sure of herself, she even tickles him a bit. If a dragon can be tickled.]

[teenyoda]

[It was hard not to laugh. He was trying, but god... the old speak made it hard.]

Yeah, well, girls like to be 'courted' by big buff guys in leather with fifty pounds of muscle and no class.

[Hale chirped and grabbed for her hand, little fingers wrapping around hers.]

[doveprincess]

[She has no idea why a girl would want a girl with no class, but she can imagine preferring a knight than a scholar. Or she would have before she learned better.]

There are things more important than looks... I suppose all girls like a handsome man, but in the end it doesn't matter if he treats you badly...

[She giggles a bit and squeezes his hand a bit.]

[teenyoda]

Ouch. I think that hurt. I know I'm not a studmuffin, but ow.

[He was teasing -- mostly, but Hale chittered at her, gave her finger another squeeze, then turned to make dragony noises at Stiles before flying back off to the stairs and jumping up the remainder to go curl up on Stiles' bed.]

[doveprincess]

[She blushes.]

Sorry, I did not mean it that way...

[Meanwhile, she plays with Hale, before he flies off.]

[teenyoda]

[He waved that off, pointing at the stairs.]

Don't worry about it. I know I'm not hulky hunk material. Look, you want me to show you where Scott's room is? You can, uh, meet him. Sort of. I mean, it's him, but it's not really him, if you get what I mean.

[doveprincess]

Yes, that would be great! After all, it is why I came here for.

[teenyoda]

Well, right up here, then.

[He headed for the stairs and jogged up them, moving over to Scott's room and opening the door. There he was, right where he'd left him, sitting on his bed. He didn't like to keep him locked up if he didn't have to, so he just shut the door when he or his dad was in the house. Unless they were sleeping.]

Sansa, this is Scott. Scott, this is Sansa. She'll be, sort of helping to look after you while I'm gone.

[doveprincess]

[Sansa follows shyly, peeking inside the room and seeing Scott sitting on the bed. She wonders if he can hear her.]

H-Hi Scott...

[teenyoda]

He won't bite. Just go on in. Get used to the whole...

[His hands moved to encompass the entirety of Scott just chilling on the bed.]

Grey zombie thing.

[doveprincess]

[She walks inside and gets closer to him.]

I never saw a grey person before... Will he be fine? [Sansa looks at him worriedly, but not with disgust.]

[teenyoda]

No? You don't go out in town much?

Yeah, he'll be good. He just needs, you know, to find his bracelet. Once we get that sucker back on him, he'll be good to go.

[doveprincess]

No... I mean... One of us travelers... [She blushes.]

If I find his bracelet, I'll make sure to put it back on his hand.

[teenyoda]

Oh. Well... yeah. It's not really a pretty sight, is it? I promise, he looks way better with a healthy skin tone.

That would be awesome. I've got other people out looking for it, so if someone comes over and is all 'BRACELET', just like, move out of the way and let them slip it on.

[doveprincess]

It is strange, but I promise I will do what I can to help Scott.

[Sansa nods.] I shall not stand in the way of his recovery.

[teenyoda]

Great. Okay, well, you've seen his room, met him, and I'll just show you where the kitchen is in case you get hungry or something. The key to his cuffs are usually here--

[He pointed at the dresser furthest away from the bed.]

Just in case he, you know, gets it in his grey head to unlock himself and go for a midnight stroll. No bueno.

[doveprincess]

Yes, thank you, that would be most kind of you.

[She pays close attention to the location of the key.]

I shall take care he doesn't do something that might make him hurt himself.

[teenyoda]

That would be great. I mean, making sure he didn't hurt himself. I think there's a line of people that would kick my ass if anything happened to him, me at the head of it.

[doveprincess]

Please, do not worry Stiles. I will take care of him.

[teenyoda]

Good. I mean, I'm glad someone will while I'm gone. I don't like him being alone.

[He pined for his bestie.]

[doveprincess]

Please, rest assure he will be safe.

[She bows a bit.]

[teenyoda]

Okay, wow, right. None of that. No bowing or anything like that. We're just two people having a conversation, right? Right.

[doveprincess]

[She blushes a bit.]

I am sorry, Ser... Stiles... I am simply accustomed to it...

[teenyoda]

I know. I'm not like, mad or anything. Just... we're not in your home place. You don't have to do that here and, really, I'm so far from a Sir or anything that it's kind of funny to be called that.

[doveprincess]

Oh no, I never thought you were made or anything... I'm sorry if I offended you or made you feel awkward.
