Wilson was hidden away in his room, curled up under a blanket on the floor rather than the cot he had. The floor was what made sense, a bed of any sort well....it didn't. The thing was soft sure not really really soft but softer than the stone floors back there. The hard an cold ground was similiar enough to the stone though sleep wouldn't last for long. Opening his eyes, he stretched and sat up. The blanket slid off and he shuddered, the long an large scar on his back showing an exposed to the chillled air. Considering he still only had one shirt, he didn't sleep with it on. It would just get dirty faster if he had. Reaching out he grabbed his sewn together rag of a shirt and put it on. The fabric had several textures due to it being different articles of clothing it was mostly rough feeling on the lower part while the sleeves were at least smooth. Standing up, he left his room and started down the halls of that he'd been in for five years. Honestly he was expecting all of this to be a dream..to be some imagined piece to deal with it. He was just waiting for it. For the walls an floors to change, for all the people, armor, swords, and dragons coexisting with em...for all of it to fade away. For her to appear, roar, yell, and claws to come down on him. He paused in his steps as the image came back to mind, how furious she was that one time. Due to stopping something pressed against his back, it was hard and it was a staff of sorts. Course his mind didn't register it as that, he froze up further and he didn't hear the person apologize for bumping into him. Nope no not today! With that he turned round to take off back to his quarters though he felt himself collide with something/someone and he ended up falling back on his rear. LEONORA NIKOLAEVNA

Leo had just discovered somewhat of a medical miracle. Well, at least in her eyes. A type of plant that was used as an anesthetic. She had borrowed the book from The Halls and was reading it and walking at the same time. She often did this, even though it really was a foolish thing to do in a public place. Still, when she found someone she was incredibly intrigued by, she didn't want to put the book down, even if she had places to go and errands to run. So here she was, walking with a book in her nose when someone collided with her. "Ooh!" she exclaimed, falling backwards onto her rear while the book flew into the air between them. She looked up, wincing a little as she noticed the person she had collided with had also fallen down. "Are you okay?" she asked softly, readjusting herself to kneel and lean, only slightly, towards the man. Suddenly, the book came into her peripheral and she reached her right hand out to catch it, without even turning her head. She kept her eyes on the person she had knocked over... or had he knocked her over? WILSON PERCIVAL

"Sorry, sorry." Wilson answered suddenly, cringing and hunching up a bit as he tried to make himself smaller without changing position. Old habits kicked in and the odd way she was able to just look at him yet catch the book just....spooked him a bit. The fact he had just been terrified through the means of something long pressing against his back even for a moment where the scar was enough to send him in a spiral to staying in his old ways even further. Perhaps if it hadn't of happened, he wouldn't have cringed the way he had though he still would've apologized more than once. He stayed put where he was, just sitting on the ground. No doubt they got a few odd glances as others of the group went about their way though honestly...the odd looks were a constant thing with Wilson almost. LEONORA NIKOLAEVNA

The man was apologizing quite a bit, cringing a way from her. Her eyes widened for a second before she slowly lowered her hand, setting the book on the ground beside them. "Hey, hey it's cool," she said softly, "mind helping me stand up?" she asked, slowly offering her hand to him. In all reality it was the other way around. She wanted to help him stand up, but she found that it was often better to make other people think they were helping you instead of you helping them. This was a philosophy that had helped her to help others man times. She was curious at his behavior, though, why he seemed to be frightened by her behavior. It was a classic sign of abuse, that much was sure. Leonora had been a slave to a dragon as well, though that dragon wasn't nearly the worst one when it came to abusing their slaves. She was lucky, except for the fact that she was supposed to be experimented on before she ran away... still, this guy had been through something brutal, that was clear. WILSON PERCIVAL

As she questioned if he could help her stand up he reached out as he started to stand to do this. His hand was shaking though as they normally were though at least it wasn't as bad as when he was talking to Elin after that loud noise. Abuse was the way that formed him this way. Sure being threatened to be eaten if your mother did one scale wrong when it came to polishing them and for any other small things. Course what really did it was being struck in his back and watching his mother get slain for his stupid attempt to help his mother get away from the life they had. It was a very strong mark on him mentally and really raised in such a environment before that well...it all just makes it worse. The whole time though he just kept quiet, she merely asked for him to help her and he was doing it, course he had no idea that she was gonna do it the other way around.

As he reached his hand out to hers, Leo helped him up while at the same time helping herself up. Using each others weight, it was easy to bring them both to standing again. She quickly released his shaking hand, which she could feel through her leather gloves and smiled at him. She gave a little salute and dropped her hand, "thank you, sir. Where were you headed in such a hurry?" she asked, raising an eyebrow at him but making sure a smile remained on her face. She didn't want him to thinks he was mad in the least, or judging him for not paying attention. She had her nose in a book after all, didn't she? She didn't have room to talk.

He released her hand though was greatly shocked that she pulled him forward as well. What was she gonna do?! Punch him in the face? Choke him? Knee to his stomach? Constantly keeping his voice in his head was a bad thing for the former slave. It was like it was adding to his problems, eating away any calm state of mind that could've existed in certain moments. Keeping the fear, uncertainty, and slave ways strong in his mind. Thus overriding everything else about himself. Keeping quiet, he just pressed his hands together, at first it wasn't firm and he rotated em a little bit though as she questioned him he pressed them a bit harder together and their movement slowed. "B...Back to my quarters." Wilson answered, he pointed with his right pointer finger to behind her. "B...B..Back there..." It wasn't much, a small room. Big enough for himself to have basic needs, there wasn't anything there really other than a bed. He was used to nothing but the sewen rags he had on him, normal clothing just....well he wouldn't wear it. LEONORA NIKOLAEVNA

Leo wasn't really one to notice someones appearance at first glance, but she finally started to take his in. Raggedy clothes, they looked comfortable yet... not. He was heading back to his quarters. She turned around but didn't really see where he was talking about, where he lived. "But... weren't you walking the other way?" she asked, pointing gently behind him this time.
Her eyes were soft, concerned. She was medic after all and often showed people concern and care that she didn't even know. She wouldn't trust them with her problems, no, but she was always there for theirs. "I mean, I was just headed back to The Halls if you wanted to join me," she added. She was interested in him, and honestly a little worried.

"G...Going back....to...to quarters..." Wilson mumbled as he pointed back behind her.
He just wanted to go back to his quarters, to where it was a somewhat safer area. The stitched rags that made his clothing were...alright, they had some different textures but he grew used to them. Couldn't complain about anything back then, certainly wouldn't do it now. Course fear was a thing he couldn't fight and win for long, he wanted to go back to his little hole that was his quarters. It felt a tad safe there. Hence why he wanted to get back there. At her offer to go to the Halls with her, he stayed quiet. Just standing there with a mind full of confusion and conflicting thoughts.

"All right," Leo said, giving a slight bow and stepping to the side out of his way. Leo wasn't one to bother other people, nor make them do anything they weren't interested in doing. She's a loving soul, a gentle being. Seeing the way this man was stuttering was making her want to get out of his way even more, help him get to a place where he felt safe. He obviously didn't feel good about being out in the open with her, so she simply moved to the side and looked down the hall in the direction he was headed. "It was nice bumping into you," she said with an amused smile.
