N-no... it's fine. I... I would rather you rest with me than be alone.
[ As, truth be told, she felt as if she has not slept beside him in some time. It has only been over a week, closer to two, since this ordeal began in Limsa. That hardly stops her from feeling as if it has been an eternity since he rested in her lap and her hand at his side.
The hand in his hair shakes slightly at the mention of his tempering. The ordeal is far from being behind them, and the memory of him being himself and yet not himself is still upsetting. The fear in his eyes is met by the apprehension in her own. She had come so close to losing him--again. First an assassination attempt and then his enthrallment. The first time he was not hers to lose, regardless of what her heart may say. This time, however... ]
Should Master Matoya remain safe, we will need to speak with her of how to best go about such a task. Alisaie and Angelo would not be enough. [ Her voice is barely above a whisper and the tremor in it is obvious. ] I am certain there is something that can be done... there must be...
[ Her eyes widen and her ears press to her head. Why should she remain and he leave? Can she not travel with him? She is useless to those here as a healer. It would take far too long for her to regain the levels of aether needed to heal them all. Which means she must find a way to move forward as the Savior of Ishgard they see her as. ]
I-in the meantime... w-would you stay with me tonight? [ The shaking in her hand only grows. What if he merely wishes to check upon her then be on his way? ] I... there are things I wish to tell you. A-and we have not been together as we might normally. Through no fault of your own! I... I simply...
[ Her eyes close and her head tilts down. She misses him. ]
Should you wish only to sleep in order to be well rested for your search in the morning? I will not keep you awake.
