[ Distilling this post-recovery trip down to nothing more than a shopping outing has proven an effective defence against any linger doubts that this could stir up feelings that Hilda has been trying to quash. Then again, shopping has always been an excellent distraction. Whether it's there to help her ignore a near death experience or an extensive amount of awkwardness that she feels spending time with someone she has unrequited feelings for, Hilda is happy to report that shopping is still very effective.

Her own promise had also been fulfilled of course. The bags Claude carries are mostly filled with things for Sylvain and Claude her annoying, but attentive nurses. Most of them practical, and all of them are very unromantic things like cooking supplies and utensils both useful and stupid, dried ingredients for dishes, a plethora of gardening related items, and empty bottles and tinctures for Claude's more private projects. And best of all? Not a single fleeting thought of feelings had once crossed her mind. All in all, a successful trip if you asked her. But her stamina still isn't where it was and she has no problem making that known.

She half expects him to agree and say that they can return to Cadens. She assumes that he's had his fill of spending the day with her and probably wants to go home to Sylvain. Instead his suggestion is met with a raised eyebrow for more than one reason and some quirked lips at the tea comment. ]


Not that I'd ever turn down a trip to the spa, but I'm surprised you want to go to the spa with me.

[ There's a brief pause because well, not to state the obvious but the setting of their last explosive fight had been at a spa. ]

This isn't some ploy to get me into a mud bath, is it? [ Her voice carries a lilt to it, like she's trying to show him that she really is joking before the look in her eyes turns slightly more serious. ] Don't you want to head back to the loft to see Sylvain? We've been out all day.

[Jayden, in contrast, doesn't spend much time in Libertas; he'd been there for the strange party held soon after their rescue from the pit, and he'd visited a few times afterward for shopping reasons or just to explore a little. But when he'd heard about the volunteering opportunities, and had then immediately rejected anything that involved the ocean, handing out some gifts to a bunch of kids who could use a little joy felt like a very appealing option. Kids are tiny weirdos, but that's what's great about them, and Jayden feels much less awkward talking to them than he would trying to cheer anyone up in a hospital.

In theory, anyway. In practice he's still hesitating, somewhere between his natural awkwardness and some unnecessary anxiety about somehow screwing this up, and so is only slowly approaching the orphanage and listening to what is still indistinct but seems to be excited chatter. It's only when he gets a little closer though that he's able to recognize a familiar voice, drawing his attention to an equally familiar person.]


That's the plan.

[He says it with a small grin, Claude's presence giving him a little more confidence, which is helped further as some of the kids latch onto the idea of a second visitor bring even more gifts and instantly welcome him with some excited chatter of their own.]

H-Hey, between the two a' us there should be plenty for everyone, so don't worry. I think we were goin' inside? Follow Claude.

[Claude seems to know what he's doing, after all.]

[ Trust wasn’t something Sylvain extended easily, or often. He might have agreed to this with others, for the fun challenge of it, but there’s little Claude could ask of him that he wouldn’t do, trusting the other man had a reason for it.

Even if he felt ridiculous right now and wouldn’t put it past Claude to ‘accidentally’ walk him into a lamppost or something.

Claude’s teasing statement gets a quiet snort of amusement from him as he lets himself be led blindly down the street. He has a vague idea of where they are, if only because he’d been following the turns and picking up on familiar sounds along the way. But it was harder than it should be, especially for someone who’d come to know these streets well in his time here. ]


I’m still not sure you haven’t been. You still haven’t given me a reason for not being able to see where we’re going. I could have walked there and still looked completely surprised, you know.

Wind magic was weird. Once she got the basics down, making a wind, that and a lot of other more fundamental aspects of the element became simple. Shaping the magic to create a trail in the air, tornadoes, localized spheres of slashing wind. It had to either be chaotic destruction, or easy to visualize.

Controlled destruction was a little bit more of a challenge.

She held her knife in front of her, flat aimed at one of the watermelons, releasing the spell she'd formed in it. It did release a pulse of wind. But it wasn't flat, wasn't sharp. It just rolled the watermelon off it's pedestal, like hit with a bullet of air. Abby sagged a little with a frustrated noise.

Feeling the shape her magic takes had taken a little work, but she could tell what she was doing. And that it wasn't what she wanted. "I keep ending up with something the size of a golf ball, not a sheet of paper. Which I think I can use for something else but it isn't what we're working on."

It might solve her 'buildings too far apart' problem but that was not today's agenda. She'd also attempted casting from the tip of her knife, rather than the flat, but that was wildly difficult to aim and still ended up in golf ball sized air bullet territory.

...That hit a rack of axes she wasn't anywhere near aiming for.

Too late.

[ Sylvain’s eyes are closed and a smile is lingering on his lips as he lays propped on Claude’s stomach. He’s only been listening with half an ear, more enjoying the sound of Claude’s voice rather than paying attention to what he was saying. He’s not really about to fall asleep, but the feel of Claude’s fingers in his hair is relaxing and his stomach is pleasantly full from their lunch and the weather is perfect and…

Nah, that about covers it. Perfect. If he didn’t have to move the rest of the day, he wouldn’t even complain. He’d be perfectly content just stopping time right here. ]

philancer: blush (102)

— hilda and sylvain; know i'm not perfect but i hope you see my worth

[personal profile] philancer 2023-11-18 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[ They've been home from the Nether for a few days now and things have been... relatively normal. Quiet. If Sylvain's been a little more subdued, he's done his best to hide it behind a smile, or the activities that make him happiest. The ones that make him feel useful around the Loft.

Part of that is interrupted by the renovations starting over on the Inn, which he's thrown himself into wholeheartedly. But this particular afternoon, he's home, out on the terrace and working with some of the plants he's gotten off of Jaskier, to expand his herb and spice collection. Lost in his own thoughts and hands buried in the dirt, he doesn't realize that he's being subtly and stealthily corralled in by his well-meaning roommates.

The fact that he is so deeply lost in his own thoughts that he doesn't even notice is probably just one more reason why they're feeling the need to do that in the first place. ]
theidlemaiden: (pic#16006940)

[personal profile] theidlemaiden 2023-11-19 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
[ It had admittedly taken some convincing on Claude's part to get Hilda to join him in this little intervention. Her reluctance had been made known in a not-so-subtle way not because she didn't care about Sylvain's wellbeing in any capacity, but rather she's still convinced that Claude would be better suited to handle this conversation on his own in spite of Sylvain saying that was a bad idea.

But her concern and worry had outgrown this ill-placed idea which explains her presence today.

This starts out the way most of their schemes: Hilda softening up their unsuspecting victim and luring them into a sense of security. Is this manipulative? Maybe. But it would only be that way for the shortest amount of time while Claude ensured Sylvain wouldn't be able to escape, hence the conversation on the terrace. Short of leaping from the balcony (which they did actually have a contingency plan for on the off chance the Faerghan tried to pull that boneheaded move), Sylvain wouldn't be able to leave easily.

She arrives with little fanfare, crouching down beside him to make her presence known. Her head lays easily on his shoulder, peering up from under her lashes. ]

philancer: shippy (114)

— the mess; cuz i've been waiting forever, waiting on this to start

[personal profile] philancer 2023-11-18 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Sylvain... isn't the most patient of people, but at the same time, watching this strange and awkward dance happening around the Loft as people walk on eggshells and try to feel out this new scenario without sharing what their own thoughts and fears are outside their own head...

Well, it's testing what little patience he can muster on a good day.

Especially when he's talked with Claude. And talked with Hilda. And he's pretty sure they've talked to each other, too. And yet he's not sure any of them are sure about where they stand right now. Or where they're supposed to go from here.

And he's pretty sure if they keep trying to do all of this separate and alone, none of them are going to get anywhere but hurt and unhappy.

Which he'd prefer to avoid them all delving into again, as much as possible. So he pulls out some underhanded tricks, some sneaking around, and maybe even some mild, well-meaning manipulation in the efforts of arranging for all three of them to be at the Loft tonight - them under the guise of seeking him out for something he needs their help with.

And if his room is set up for a comfy evening in where they can sit and talk - complete with at least three bottles of wine, just in case - well, that's just a convenient happenstance, right?

At least that's the story he's going with, and he'll stand by it. Even if he has to lock all three of them in until dawn to get some truths out of all of them.

Things are dire when it falls to Sylvain Gautier to wrangle everyone together to talk about their feelings. ]

[personal profile] theidlemaiden 2023-11-19 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
[ Hilda arrives shortly after Claude without the faintest idea what this could possibly be about. Sylvain hadn't been forthcoming which had only furthered her suspicion. But after everything she felt like she had put him through, there were plenty of things Sylvain could ask of her and she would (reluctantly) do it. Not that he knew that. No, she kept that fact close to her chest much in the same way she kept that fact from Claude; she could only imagine what kind of chaos that would cause.

After a long bath, she's quick to change into a simple dress and one of the sweaters she had dug out of Claude's perpetual mess of a closet after a day of bustling back and forth between Aquila and the Old Public Hall. With the day ending she doesn't see the point in putting her hair up when she'll end up taking it down later to sleep anyway.

A bright greeting is on the tip of her tongue when she notices the set up, bottles of wine and all. All of it gets a pointed, curious eyebrow raise as she steps into the room. Her eyes shift towards Claude before going to Sylvain, only the faintest hints of hesitation edging into her smile. ]


You didn't need both of us for this did you? Because I was getting a little tired anyway so I could just head to bed.

I DO WHAT I CAN
[ sam is quite punctual himself, but between the other messages and conversations he has to wrap up and getting stopped on his way through the tavern space by mag asking for a few last minute errands while he's out, it's a couple of minutes later before he's pushing through the doors out onto the street.

claude is - of course - already there, list in hand. sam chuckles and apologizes and goes in for- well, really, he goes in for a handshake-slash-hug and hopes for the best.

when that is all said and done, sam will take a breath and hold out his hand for the list of names. he knows claude has probably already brainstormed a bit, and while sam is pretty sure a lot of their names will be the same, he's hoping to be able to add at least a few more. he's got some people he knows for a fact they can get a little extra help from, and whether or not he likes or hates it, he does know how to fundraise. ]


Oh, I was born ready to charm. And with us working together, Cadens doesn't stand a chance. Oh- here. First stop is right down this way. [ sam's going to start off down one of the streets, weaving between people even as his eyes are scanning the names - recognizing some, but not all. he'll ask for the pen at some point to jot down his own offerings, not realizing until he's on the last name that he's all but doubled the list. whoops. ] By the time we're through here, I'm gonna need a drink, that's for sure.
