𝙷𝙸𝚂 𝚆𝙾𝚁𝙺 𝚂𝙿𝙰𝙲𝙴 𝙻𝙾𝙾𝙺𝚂 𝙻𝙸𝙺𝙴 𝙰 𝙻𝙸𝚃𝚃𝙻𝙴 𝚆𝙸𝙽𝙳𝙾𝚆 𝙸𝙽𝚃𝙾 𝙽𝙰𝚃𝚄𝚁𝙴, nothing but quiet and green all around, warm sunlight gently streaming in. plants and flowers, of course, all placed exactly where they should be, but also animals meant to be restored into a healthy state before being set free again. no form of life shall ever go neglected, as far as he is concerned, or worse still —— disrespected, harmed. this has been taught to him since he was a young boy, it is more than a simple habit : rather a way of life, something to honor until his last breath. Emìl used to be quite reserved about this room, this little haven, yet he has found himself opening up more and more, as respect grew into trust and friendship, even. now, completely comfortable with letting the queen come and go as she pleases, the memory makes him smile. although that is not the sole reason for his lips to be molding into a soft curve.
« wait just a moment, please. take this with you, as a token of my gratitude. » an assortment of pavettas and roses, delicately woven into a circular shape, is what he offers her. a small thing compared to the sense of belonging Calanthe has given him, but truly heartfelt.

𝙷𝙸𝚂 𝚆𝙾𝚁𝙳𝚂 𝙻𝙴𝙰𝚅𝙴 𝙷𝙸𝙼 𝙲𝙾𝙻𝙳 𝙰𝙻𝙻 𝙾𝚅𝙴𝚁 . everything about the sorcerer does , at present . it used to be quite different , not even too long ago , certainly not for their life span . stregobor had been someone mousesack looked up to , even admired , but he was younger , back then , blind to his true nature and easily fooled by his enticing words . he can see him clearer than he ever did now , and he does not like what he is met with , it makes his gaze grow sharper and shoulders rigid , made stiff by an ache that never healed right . the worst kind of it , one he feels powerless against .
❛ oh , i see things as they are now . ❜ and he really should leave it at that , should know better than to utter more , to reveal more , leave him sore spots to find , but perhaps that little boy is still there somewhere , heart singed with betrayal . ❛ i was a fool to ever believe you could have used your power to do some good in this world . rest assured , i will not make the same mistake twice . ❜

𝙼𝙰𝙶𝙸𝙲 𝚃𝙰𝙺𝙴𝚂 𝙰𝚂 𝙼𝚄𝙲𝙷 𝙰𝚂 𝙸𝚃 𝙰𝙻𝙻𝙾𝚆𝚂, it is only fair trade, as cruel as it might seem, a balance that has to be carefully set. don’t ask for more than you ought , the reminder is not lost on him, not even now, as he can feel his heartbeat drumming against his temples, chest tightening in a familiar way, as energy seeps out faster than he would like. yet his eyes are focused, clear blue, trained on the wound on her side, both his hands steady, working through movements repeated time and time again. only when she speaks does he look up again and there is no room for empty reassurances in his gaze, just certainty : her face is slowly regaining color, although the queen’s eyes remain glossed over by fever and Mousesack can finally release the breath he had been holding for the last five seconds or so.
« good. because you are not going anywhere, your majesty. » his smile is a faint one, but no less relieved for it. one day this won’t be enough, one day their luck might very well run out, and some of the stars in the sky will shine less brightly, but today death’s doors are closed shut and so they will remain, if has any say in it, so the thought can be brushed aside this time. as mindful of boundaries as ever, the druid does not take her hand in his, only slightly brushes her skin, the touch soft and brief, yet it conveys how much he has come to sincerely care for her well being.

« 𝙸 𝙰𝙼 𝙽𝙾𝚃—— » a wince cuts his voice short, wave of dizziness so strong a myriad of white points explodes behind closed eyelids. « as well as I thought. » his legs feel dangerously weak, admittedly, so he is grateful for the offered support of an arm outstretched. the druid is not so careless with his health, usually, yet he must have overlooked the symptoms until now, preoccupied as he has been with other matters —— other people’s well being. and now, finally, a taste of his own medicine in the form of Math’s stern voice, urging him to rest. he doesn’t even try to discuss it, the situation evident enough to render any attempt foolish and futile, only does as told.
« will you stop fussing over me if I promise not to try to get up again ? lesson learned, my friend. » a smile manages to make room for itself along the lines of his mouth, genuine, if a little strained and weak around the edges. it stays in place, nevertheless.

𝙸𝚃 𝚁𝙴𝙰𝙳𝚂 𝙻𝙸𝙺𝙴 𝚆𝙰𝚁𝙽𝙸𝙽𝙶, curiously enough, and he should know all about the importance of heeding words. but there is no sign of alarm on his features, brows only crease slightly as he wonders what she could possibly mean. almost ironic, given how often it falls on others to decipher his own vague wording, moon shadowed, but never ill meant. she, too, means well here, Emìl cannot really believe anything else. so the line of his mouth finally settles on the edge of a smile, something small, yet not void of mirth, almost for her eyes alone —— an inside joke, of sorts.
« too stubborn for my own good, princess ? » there it is, his very special way of using irony without a bite to it, tone of voice ever calm, harmless.
