That makes more sense. How can he not be, when his son is shivering under blankets, hurling to the side to heave into the bucket Gavriel has left besides him every few minutes? Would his son avoided suffering, or been thrown right into it? He turns to Aedion, immediately regretting the decision when he see’s the peaceful look upon Aedion’s face. “Read the book,” Harsel reaches out, tapping the cover.

He has tattoos on both of his knees of … “But we did hear your interesting conversation a few days ago. Aedion releases a muffled sound of surprise, brows raised, but wraps his arms around her waist just as enthusiastically. “I-“ Aedion takes a moment to think of the right words. It doesn’t take long, Aedion knowing many surprising paths through the forest that don’t appear on any maps. 10.

Wake up-“. “We can cut straight through the forest,” Aedion mentions once they near the thick canopy of trees. He does know that Gavriel handed him a glass, helping him to drink the strangely sweet concoction before heading back to their room with him. It was such a small, hopeless, scared sound. He’s gone ten years without speaking of any of that to anyone. A gas-lamp sits on the small table resting between the two pieces of furniture, offering light in the room. He’s realised by now that the littlest of things, the smallest mention of words or actions, can set Aedion off. “What do you want in return for it?”.

Now all that's left is to regroup and rebuild. “So,” Gavriel strolls next to Aedion, “I heard you and Lysandra talked. would you have come back for me?”, Her eyes shutter, becoming guarded. “Liar,” Aedion’s face hardens. Gods above, he was thirteen years old. “They’ve always given me clear passage, ever since I was a child,” Aedion strolls forward, highly aware of Gavriel’s eyes following him.

I swear to the gods-“, “She didn’t,” Rowan breathes in a deep breath, pinching the bridge of his nose. And Lys and I are fine.

Thank you for caring for me, for defending me and for being willing to have pride in me. “Back when I wanted to play dress up and you let me-“, “I don’t see why you yelled,” Elide speaks to Aedion in hushed tones, the rest of the group walking further up the street. But when you’ve been fighting since you were thirteen, betrayed by multiple people at every turn, losing and being lied to by your cousin more than once, it makes sense that these kind of things would continue to take effect. Now he wants to step away, if only to just spite his cousin. Everything’s being built up, hope restored to the fullest, but now that there’s hope there’s so much more to lose. His body is burning, yet the shivering continues. “Did you visit Rosamel often?”. “I’m not an idiot,” Harsel grins dryly. “To simply push the Valg back wouldn’t have been enough. It is not fair that you had to do the work of adults simply because they all chose not to. It was abrupt, Aedion biting out the fact when Gavriel made a comment on how his mother also enjoyed fresh golden fruit. At first Gavriel simply watches, until Aedion’s sounds become distinctly distressed, grunts and, even though he knows Aedion would deny it, whimpers of fear. Aelin smirks, albeit a little pale. Fuck, Aelin would have a field day with that. Is there anything better, or worse, than standing next to his son? Work Search: . “I thought it would only be you. “That boy was raised in a war camp, even before the actual war started. He nearly drops it with what he reads.

Is there a single warm spot in this country?”, Aedion laugh. “No, she did not,” Aedion punctuates the words with annoyed clarity, scowling at the wall as if Aelin’s standing there herself. “I love Lysandra. I just need something to warm me up first,” Aedion grins, saluting him with a glass. “I don’t know.”. Gavriel seems unsatisfied with the plate of toast and few slices of fruit Aedion serves himself, ready to heap more on. Not when he still feels like that bottle of emotions is shattered inside of him, rattling around in his chest. “Lift your arms.”. “You know,” Gavriel clears his throat. Compared to that it was nothing.”. Need to melt your old bones?”. Then Gavriel collapses to his knees next to the bed. “If someone surprises you then you could attack them.”, A coarse laugh jumps out of Aedion’s throat.

He had, however, immediately helped Aedion stand again, quickly brushing as much snow off of him as possible. “That’s good to hear,” Gavriel smiles, not bothering to hide his happiness. “You don’t leave children period!” Aedion snarls right back, stomping a step forward. He begins to chuckle; never before has he seen Aedion give such an ungraceful display of actions. It hovers in the air, stretching between them as it slowly settles and dissipates. “Aelin gave you a large sum of money before we left. “You’re exhausted and need food.”. “Let’s- fucking hell.”, “It’s snowing,” Aedion hisses, glaring through the window. It may not be perfect, but it is the truth. After all, the concept of time was fluid for Gavriel back then. Yet for some small reason, Gavriel isn’t bothered by the thought. “She would be so proud of you,” Gavriel says softly.
