The bench was cold. And hard. And uncomfortable to most. However, most were not Akaia. As far as the Sidhe was concerned, the stone seat where the two girls found their respite was a cushion that threatened to lure her into a deep sleep. A sleep she refused to accept. They were still far from home and although relatively safe, it was never a good idea for her to rest her head in the open when beyond the walls of the Crow's Nest. So instead of listening to that voice in the back of her head telling her how exhausted she was, she focused on the blanket of warmth pressed against her. A body standing between herself and the cold night air that cut her cheek and slipped under the folds of her shirt. It was yet another reminder of what she'd lost that day but also a reassurance of what she hadn't.

She reached up and gently pinched a spot of skin on Cerise's arm. [color=bca346]"How are you?"[/color] She asked, making a show of studying the indent she left behind. It was obvious however by the blank stare that she had already forgotten why this was important. It was also obvious by the way she chewed her lip that she was taking the time to construct a sentence. [color=bca346]"You did not get hurt. Today?"[/color]

As she waited for Cerise to answer, Akaia freed one of her arms from around Cerise's and reached into her satchel to retrieve a tin. Very shortly after, Licorice landed nearby and hopped over to stand in front of both girls.[/color]
