He loved how interested she was in the cool things he had done. It made him feel like he was actually doing something important with his powers. "It was the Knight. He threw knives into my hurricane. I caught four of them but didn't see the last one. Then when I fell something hit it and shifted it my side. Otherwise I could get up and dance with you right now. Maybe." He joked with her. It wasn't that he was suddenly gaining feelings for her. It was like his old feelings of love and friendship were expanding into something...more. Was that a good way to describe it? He didn't know. But he smiled at her all the same. "Sleep? Who needs it." He joked and was betrayed by a yawn. "I guess... you are just over there so, you aren't too far away. " He said outloud, then wondered if he should have kept that part to himself. "You have had a long day as well. Aren't you tired?"anaya isobel morne

Anaya didn't think she'd ever hated a human like this before. Dragons, sure. She hated the ones who killed Illyana. She'd tried to find them and take her revenge on them, but had been unable to. That didn't make Anaya hate them less. That Knight though? She hated him. He'd hurt Percy, been determined to kill him. If things hadn't worked out the way they did, he might have been able to do so. Still, she listened as Percy explained how it all happened, cringing a little when he explained how the one knife slipped through his defenses. Then he made a joke. Despite herself, Anaya smiled and rolled her eyes. "Since when do you know how to dance, Lieutenant?" she teased lightly, telling herself to focus on the fact that he was here with her. Safe and fine. She didn't need to focus on his injuries. "Obviously you do," she answered back, squeezing his hand again, though this time it was meant to show she was teasing. He noted the fact that she wasn't going to be too far away and Anaya smiled, a part of her very happy that he seemed to want her close. She shrugged at his question. "I slept for hours already. I mean, I'm sure I can sleep and that it'll help me feel better, but I don't really feel tired right now." Okay, so maybe she was lying. She was tired, she needed more rest to heal her mind from all the strain she put on it, but wouldn't being with Percy heal her more than sleep would? He was so calming to her, in a way that she couldn't quite explain. PERSEUS CAREW

Her smile was the best medicine. He would do anything to keep a smile on her face. "I can dance... probably. If I tried." He smirked at her, but even as he did he felt his eyes getting heavy. It was good idea to sleep. "You could just stay here until you got sleepy." He whispered, struggling to keep his eyes open. Jankin flew by overhead, checking in on him. The dragon seemed amused at how close they were, noting that Percy had never asked that sort of a favor of anyone else. Not even Jankin. Then the dragon flew away, helping attend to things that needed attention. "Or even just until I fall asleep." He was reminded of the numerous times when Anaya was at his bedside, nursing his wounds, chiding him for not sleeping. Why did this feel so much different? anaya isobel morne

Anaya chuckled as Percy insisted that he could probably dance. She quirked an eyebrow at him. "I might not believe that until I see it," she teased him back. She could tell he was getting tired, which was a good thing, but she wasn't ready for him to leave her yet. Not that she'd try to keep him away. He added that she could stay until she got sleepy and Anaya smiled. "That shouldn't be too hard," she told him, smiling as his eyes opened and closed. Was he trying to stay awake for her? She doubted it, but maybe she'd just pretend like he was. It would make her feel a little better, more wanted than she'd felt in a while. Percy amended his statement, to suggest she could stay until he fell asleep. "Done," she whispered, watching him with an easy smile on her face. "Go to sleep, Perseus. You need it." She wasn't even sure if he was awake anymore. His eyes were closed and, after a moment Anaya couldn't resist the temptation. She lifted her free hand up and brushed his hair from his forehead. Maybe he was asleep enough that he wouldn't notice. "I'm here," she breathed, feeling relieved that she was here, yet stressed about it at the same time. While being beside Percy was the one place she wanted to be, she didn't fit in Excalibur anymore. She'd betrayed them, abandoned them. They deserved better. Percy deserved better. PERSEUS CAREW

It was not difficult to fall asleep. The difficult part was trying to stay awake. He had spent so long looking for Anaya, now she was here and all he could do was sleep? He allowed his eyes to close, if only because the effort of keeping them open was to much for him. He felt her hand brush his hair and reveled in her touch. How long had he gone without even knowing how much he wanted to be close to her? Anaya whispered something he couldn't hear. Suddenly he was fearful she would leave, vanish in the night while he was sleeping and he would spend another year or more looking for her. He didn't know if he could bear that. "Stay."anaya isobel morne

He looked so peaceful when he was sleeping. Anaya learned that years ago. When Percy was awake he was lively and energetic and teasing, but when he fell asleep his face relaxed and she loved it. It was one of the reasons she'd always come to the infirmary when she found out he was there. Well, that and the fact that she loved being able to look at him without him really knowing. Was that creepy? Probably, but Anaya tried not to think about it. She was staring down at him, telling herself she needed to go when he whispered one word, asking her to stay. How was she supposed to leave him after that? Even just to go to her own cot ... she couldn't do it. She didn't even know if he was just dreaming and talking to someone in his dream, but Anaya couldn't go. Anaya got off of his bed, reaching over to a nearby chair and pulling it so she could sit right beside his bed. She watched Percy for a while, but eventually fell asleep, resting her head beside him on the bed. She didn't wake until the next morning when the healers came in and got after her for leaving her cot. PERSEUS CAREW (end?)
