Illyana blinked hard several times and as Lucien's voice reached her ears, she realized that it was him, Faolan and Aurel all gathered together outside. Of course, who else would it be?

Before she exited the trailer, and once her eyes had cleared, she looked from side to side to make sure that there was no one else around. This was a precaution she had learned in her own home, as she was best neither seen, nor heard. When she was satisfied that the coast was clear, she stepped down the large step from the trailer, her hand on the door frame to steady herself, and approached the trio.

She felt worlds better from yesterday, and the past four or five days seemed like a dream to her now. She was leaving this trailer feeling almost wholly herself again...almost. Once she was home, once she was with Isy again...she knew that would make her feel much better.

[color=598527]"Hm?"[/color] she said, realizing that she had been lost in thought as Lucien spoke to her, [color=598527]"Oh, yes, thank you for bringing it..."[/color] she said, her hands wringing together as she looked about. That was when she noticed the sun's height in the sky and panic suddenly struck her.

[color=598527]"Wait,"[/color] she said, her eyes widening as she looked back at the man before her, [color=598527]"What time is it!?"[/color] Her voice rose slightly, cracking again though her throat had been moistened. Was it this late in the day? Would they still be bringing her home today? Why hadn't they woken her up at dawn...? They would have been on the road for hours already...

Faolan had looked up from the newspaper he was skimming as Illyana left the trailer, and he sat a little more forward in his chair when he noticed her grip the doorframe, but relaxed when she began walking toward them. It seemed that Lucien's healing had done the trick for her after all. He did not speak or stand, seeing no need to at the time. She was more comfortable around Lucien, though she was not necessarily nervous around Faolan, the Frenchman was better at these types of things.
