Kire nodded. "I figured as much. I'm just--I'm worried too, is all." She shrugged. "You know him best. Will you tell him he's welcome to attend the celebration if he's feeling up to it? If I don't see him then, I'll come by to see how he is." She stood up, the sombre conversation making her feel even more tired. "Narda, my cousin, and my other pirate friend might request a visit one of these days, by the way. Just let me know whether or not you're up for guests." 
She smiled for a moment. "I'd best get back. Thank you, Envy."

This was one of those rare mornings where Ed hadn't risen early. He groaned softly, rubbing his eyes and moving strands of his unruly, blond hair out of his forehead. Gods, he was deliciously sore. And he was sure his back had scratches. Ed lay on his back, not wanting to move or leave the bed anytime soon to begin work. Another rare moment. He chuckled at himself as he rolled towards Ysaryn, snaking his arm around her middle as he nipped her ear gently. "[I]Morning, milady,[/i]" he whispered, teasing.
