help me, darling. help me, please.
[ So much to think about, and the clouds are no escape for your fine Queen today.
"Their own love in their rightful Queen can be strengthened. Compassion will show you both the way, I am certain. Some girls just want to ride the wind wear ever it takes them, and live life to the fullest."
Oh dear oh dear oh dear. Such a mess, it's all become such a mess! ]

[ The mirror is recording as the Queen stands at the shoreline, the long stretch of the dunes at her back, the sheer plane of water before her. And overhead the clouds are still flashing with lightning, even as the serpent's bones rain down and warriors close in upon the ship. The storms are banished first, brushed aside with nothing more than an impatient motion. The ship will have to come down next, and she reaches upwards, pausing for only a moment when the High Priestess appears, her feet wet when the tide rolls in, and her head shaded beneath a paper parasol. She says something that can't be heard and the Queen nods distractedly, beginning then to reel down the Labrys as if she has caught it round with a lasso. The Pirate Queen appears at the rails, looking startled and irritated, calling out gruffly,]
Ready to open your mouth, woman?
[ Her majesty sighs, stating very deliberately, ] We do need to talk, yes.
[ The ship hits the ground with a spray of sand and sea, but the gangplank is lowered, and the Queen steps onto the ship, leaving the High Priestess standing at the edge of the tide. A squadron of large brown bears take up positions around the site. The Warrior Princess does not take long in joining them, her face cut and streaked with ash and blood. She does not take her eyes off of the ship, not even for a moment.
When the Queen reappears to see her there, she smiles bashfully. ]
High Priestess, you still have those bottled little folk, don't you, my dear?
[ Whatever the expression on the High Priestess' face, it is not pleasure, but she inclines her head obediently. Soon enough, a cat can be seen walking slowly down the beach, a rope in its mouth that is tied to a floating crate. The faeries inside rattle in their bottles, lights flashing within.
The Pirate Queen crows something rude and self-aggrandizing from the rails, grinning, and the damsels are led up from below deck by an honor guard of battered skeletons. The Queen opens her arms to them. ]
Darlings! I'm so glad to see you safe!
[ The Damsel goes to her, if no one else, and even she has soon moved on, hurrying across the sands to greet the Warrior Princess with a hug that is not returned.
The gangplank of the Labrys recedes when the crate is safely onboard, and though the ship does not seem to be moving, some of the skeletons wave cheerfully from the decks, giggling in that eerie way of theirs. ]

I should only need help getting into the bath. Then you can go do whatever you want.
no subject
I'll just wait outside the door.
no subject
[BUT OH DOES THE HOT WATER FEEL AMAZING.]
no subject
no subject
Now get out.
no subject
But Kris gives a smile and steps out, closing the door behind her.]
no subject
She'll soak in the bath for what's long to her, but probably not long to Kris.]
no subject
no subject
Kris? Are you there?
no subject
no subject
This is so embarrassing.
no subject
It'll be like this for a few days so you'll have to get used to it.
no subject
[At least she's clean. Well, as clean as she can get with a bum shoulder.]
no subject
...let's get you out of the bath and into bed.
no subject
You will have to comb out my hair.
no subject
[She really would have. But they need to get her to Akiha's room first.]
no subject
[Yay for fluffy warm robe and a nearby bedroom. Akiha feels like she could sleep a week.]
no subject
Mm, I'm sure.
no subject
She crawls into bed and lays on her good side. Still plenty of room to work on her hair.]
You remember where the brushes are, yes?
no subject
[Kris heads over and grabs a brush, not wanting to keep the Princess here waiting.]
no subject
Thank you. Don't take it personally if I fall asleep while you're doing this.
...you can stay if you wish.
no subject
[You're only denying yourself the yummy thing, Akiha. The week of sleep can come now though as Kris starts to run the brush through her hair, paying special care to not tug on any tangles.]
no subject
[Akiha slowly, carefully, reaches up with her left arm to touch Kris' hand before lowering it again. A few more seconds and Akiha is out like a light.]
