[b]"I d-don't know about them not being generous,"[/b] she half-mumbled, stammering slightly. [b]"I mean, they did cover Royse and I's medical bills. They could've had their own reward that we didn't know about, or maybe they just like Phoenix Wing enough that they're happy to help?"[/b] She glanced at the door to the kitchen, hoping maybe the server was coming back out and could serve as a distraction. No such luck. [b]"As for why Royse went back without me, uhm... I wanted to stay here and get something to eat, and she wanted to go home, so I gave her that lacrima you gave me and sent her home. D-didn't she tell you everything else that happened?"[/b]

Jarvis stayed silent for a moment or two, as if giving Mithera a chance to tell him the full story. When it didn't seem like she would, Jarvis sighed. He wasn't necessarily angry, as he was... saddened she didn't trust him. [color=a36209]"Medical bills. Why do I get the feeling that Royse's injuries were a lot less then yours?"[/color] He said in a soft tone, watching her, [color=a36209]"And that you sent her on ahead so that we wouldn't worry?"[/color] he raised a brow, as if asking that he was right before continuing, [color=a36209]"I just want to know that you are okay."[/color] 

[b]"I mean..."[/b] Mithera began, rubbing her left arm. She winced when her thumb ran over a bruise she hadn't realized was there. [b]"You know my magic Jarvis, right? What might be fatal to someone else isn't fatal to me,"[/b] she couldn't meet his gaze. [b]"So, relatively, Royse was hurt a lot worse than I was. Y-you saw her eye right?"[/b] She shot a glance up at Jarvis, before bringing it back down to the table in front of her. [b]"But no I sent Royse on so she didn't worry about me. The, um, doctors wouldn't let me leave just yet anyway,"[/b] the shapeshifter bit her lip, having not wanted to say that. Sighing, she rested her head in her hands.

[b]"I'm going to be fine long term,"[/b] Mithera finally said with some finality. [b]"The doctors were unconvinced, but I did finally prove that I'd be fine, even if I'm not really okay at the moment. I'm... I'm just very tired right now, I couldn't sleep safely last night and I haven't eaten in like three days. Honestly this place is just the closest to the hospital,"[/b] Mithera didn't meet with Jarvis' eyes and looked longingly at the kitchen door. [b]"I'm sorry for leading you on, I just don't want anyone to worry about me."[/b]

[color=a36209]"Mithera, we are going to worry about you, that is a given. It will always happen, same as it would for everyone else."[/color] Jarvis said, with a sigh, [color=a36209]"If the doctors thought Royce could go, and you couldn't that means you were hurt worse then her. Don't leave us out of the loop... I don't want to lose any of my members because of that"[/color] 

Mithera gave a sad little smile to Jarvis, finally meeting his gaze. She was clearly exhausted, with red eyes underlined in what easily could be bruises. [b]"You won't, I promise next time something big like yesterday goes down you'll be the first I tell. Besides, once I get some food and sleep I'll be good as new! Then we can look for some way to get Royse a new eye,"[/b] she sounded somewhat relieved, though she perked up when the waitress finally arrived with Mithera's meal- a large steak with an equally large side of vegetables. The starving wizardess barely got out a muffled thank you before beginning to shovel fork-fulls of food into her mouth. The waitress then turned to Jarvis, to see if he needed anything.

Jarvis shook his head at the waitress, leaning back in his chair. He watched Mithera a moment, sighing. [color=a36209]"Just don't send someone back without you. It was... worrisome."[/color] he said, [color=a36209]"And use your communication lacrima- that's what its there for, to make sure you stay safe and get help if you need it."[/color] he said kindly

[b]"Sorry,"[/b] Mithera muttered as she chowed down rapidly on her food- barely taking the time to breathe. Before the waitress even came back to check on her she had finished her meal and accompanying drink. Wiping her mouth, Mithera looked up at Jarvis and gave him a happy but tired smile. [b]"So are we going back by Lacrima or by train?"[/b]

Watching her, Jarvis sighed softly glad that she was safe. At her question, he couldn't help but chuckle, [color=aba000]"Why, lacrima of course. I need to be back quickly"[/color]

Mithera smiled and stood up after slipping the money for the dinner under the plate. She knew it was [i]far[/i] more than what the meal was actually cost, but she didn't really have a convenient place to keep the money and didn't care to. She held out her hand to Jarvis [b]"Then let's go! Is there a free room that I can take for the rest of the day?"[/b]

[color=aba000]"Of course"[/color] Jarvis said, as he took out a lacrima, and took her hand, teleporting them back to the guild. 

Mithera had to shake herself when she felt the arrival back at the guild hall. A few long days were beginning to wear on her, and the food had filled her to the brim. Through half-closed eyes, Mithera quickly scanned the room, barely acknowledging Mayt as he brushed past her. Her eyes shot open as she spotted Karn though, since she hadn't seen him almost at all in far too long. [b]"Thank you Jarvis for bringing me back, see you later!"[/b] She said before practically loping over to Karn with an airheaded smile on her lips, wrapping her arms around the other shapeshifter as soon as they were in range. [b]"Karn! Where have you been?"[/b] Mithera asked, seeming to not mind that she was interrupting a conversation in progress. She also didn't seem to think that Karn might not connect the tall, white-haired woman with the same little pseudodragon he knew her as.

[h3]Phoenix Wing Guild Hall[/h3]
Menions: [@MarshiestMallow][@Zarkun][/right]
[hr][hr]Mayt kept quiet as Penny shouted at Damian and stormed out, biting his lip. After she had left he let a long moment to pass before looking back towards Damian. [color=50c878]"So,"[/color] he said slowly. [color=50c878]"I guess I'm the one who has to go."[/color] Adjusting his shirt, Mayt stood up and looked around the room. He wasn't sure what to say after what Penny said, and he figured arguing with Damian simply wouldn't work at this point. Damian was still obviously the better choice in his opinion, but if he already had another commitment... [color=50c878]"I will tell Jamie and go pack then,"[/color] he said as he reached the door, pulling it open into the noise of the guild hall. [color=50c878]"See you later Damian."[/color]

Mayt fixed his coat as he began walking across the guild hall, closing the door behind him. He nearly ran into Mithera as she and Jarvis reappeared in the guild hall, but all it took was some careful maneuvering and a quiet [color=50c878]"Pardon me,"[/color] to avoid any confrontation. He then made his way over to where Jamie was talking to someone, and leaned over to speak quietly. [color=50c878]"Hey, uh, apparently I'm going to Tenrou with you all. If you need me I'm going home to get ready, ok?"[/color]
