[ Illuga lets out a sigh , doing his best to sit there quietly without squirming around too much. It wasn't because the injuries hurt or anything- but because Flins had his eyes on him. . . and the ointment was a bit cold- Perhaps he was feeling slightly embarrassed. ] H-huh-? [ the sudden ++
[ flins rarely have scratches ... if anything , his clothing is mostly damaged from battle . his 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮 ? not so , all the more reason to appreciate scars which made someone 𝘩𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯 through and through . when illuga flinches , he immediately applied ointment
Rai. Illuga's about to freaking die man Brain about to malfunction
I do not think there is much to admire- [ Illuga mumbled softly as he sat there letting the marks be touched and admired , though he didn't understand why Flins liked them. They were simply battle scars , marks that consistently reminded him of his survival when he felt he shouldn't have ++
do not worry , you'll catch a cold when I do——but let me 𝘢𝘥𝘮𝘪𝘳𝘦 them , at least ~. [ flins will subtly touch , then memorizing every zigzags of scars carving on illuga's body like 𝘮𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘱𝘪𝘦𝘤𝘦; an attempt of knowing the story in 𝘴𝘪𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 . he gestures
[ he was a bit embarrassed to ask but after a moment he shifts closer to Flins and nods a bit ] Yes , i do have some with me. And the spare bandages are here. [ he then pauses for a moment before slowly shifting his arms so the other could help him get the shirt off ] I really don't think my ++
since you asked , why would I 𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘶𝘴𝘦 ? [ if it meant reducing and healing those wounds from earlier hunt , flins shall thoroughly check on every corner , eyeing if there're still more scrapes . ] 𝘩𝘮 ... you should undress yourself , young master
[ now that , he knows its true. . .his old man would in fact scold him for being reckless. Perhaps it's better that Flins found him instead ] I know you are right. He would he both worried and disappointed. [ a soft chuckle as he shakes his head a bit. Flins offering to stay and watch over ++
[ flins know how 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 illuga is——however , not all humans can withstand 𝘱𝘢𝘪𝘯 , ultimately , it might be their 𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘦 ... immortal he is , this fleeting moment is what makes one so 𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘥 enough . ] 𝒉𝒂𝒉 , if not me——then your old man will scold
Normally I am far more careful than this. . .but they are desperate to get me- [ he sighs softly , giving the bandage a tug to ensure it was tight before he looks up at flins ] It's fine. I really don't feel the pain that much. I have. . .a very high pain tolerance. I didn't even notice some ++
𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘴——please care for yourself often , illuga . what would I do if you'll get injured 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 ? [ flins watched illuga doing the patching , instead of helping , he's letting him be ... at least the wound's covering a lot before he came , but
Huh ? Oh- sir Flins. [ he had been so distracted with patching himself that he didn't notice until the other was right there. ] Yeah- the wild hunt caught me off guard. . . I managed to take care of them but then I noticed they had gotten me. It doesn't really hurt though. Just stings a bit.
[ seeing this , flins immediately approached out of concern——crowding before illuga . ] 𝒂𝒉 , young master illuga ... what's gotten you this 𝘪𝘯𝘫𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘥 ? found yourself in a difficult battle earlier ? let me help .
He is a bit banged up from a battle , now wrapping his injuries.
[ hearing the origin story of the comb makes Illuga both smile and feel a bit sad. . . While he didn't necessarily know just how old Flins was , he knew the other had been around for a while. And to still have such a thing in good condition. . . ] The person who made it definitely had a way ++
I kept this with me since coming in terms of where I originally 𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨 . [ flins started with tending to illuga's hair , then combing through the strands afterwards——such a beautiful thing needs to be 𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘥 , and he will make sure that it'll be
[ Illuga looks up curiously as Flins walks away , having a slight tilt of his head. It's only for a few moments until Flins returns to him , carrying a rather beautiful comb that looked extremely old. . . ] Where in the world did you come across that ? It looks like it's rather old yet still ++
as you wish . [ before flins would proceed , he quickly distanced himself from illuga and walked down his chambers to pick something . an artifact from eons past——a comb with intricate , swirling design of stemming flowers carved so 𝘣𝘦𝘢𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘭𝘺 through
[ while Illuga was aware that Flins had been staring at something , he had yet to look up from all the papers he was sorting through. That is until he felt the other touch his hair. ] Huh ? Oh- is my hair a bit tangled ? . . .I suppose I didn't run a comb through it this morning. . . ( or ++
———; 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓 : comb . [ flins' been staring at illuga's albino—crimson tresses for a while ... the young captain's sorting these document files for him to place in his personal archives and cannot help but having fingers soothingly combed through strands .
It wasn't often Illuga found the time to come out and see Flins himself. Normally it was the other way around but today. . .he somehow managed to have free time. Yet- Flins taking his sweet time turning around made him huff a bit. " It's nice to see you as well , Sir Flins. I hope I am not ++
Of course he knew who stood behind him, tapping on his shoulder in an attempt to receive his attention. That was precisely why Flins took his sweet time to turn around - brows raising in feigned surprise. "Oh. Good day, Young Master Illuga. What a delight it is to see you."
He's appeared behind @phosphylax.bsky.social and is lightly tapping his shoulder.
He hasn't seen Flins in a while. . .maybe it's time for a visit. . He worries a lot about him.

[ a soft sigh can be heard as his chin is tilted upward. He couldn't hide anything from Flins , it seemed. Though he would have liked to keep the pink color on his cheeks hidden ] It's not that I'm ashamed or anything I just. . .don't want anyone to worry. . . [ granted he knew tuat was
Hmmm. (Flins extended a hand to cup Illuga's chin this time, gingerly tilting it upwards to examine him closer. Eyes were the window to the soul, after all.) Young Master, you mustn't hide your face. There is nothing to be ashamed of. (His thumb traced soothing circles along Illuga's lower +
It's. . .the voices of the Wild Hunt. The ones that always haunt me and have always haunted me. . . [ he looks toward the ground now , hoping to hide the dark circles under his eyes. ] They get worse after every mission for a bit. . .and haven't quieted down yet.
Mm, I see. Troubling indeed... (Cups his chin, feigning a thoughtful pose. Truthfully, Flins already had a remedy in mind before approaching Illuga, but jumping to the result spoils the journey.) If you don't mind me asking, what kind of voices have you been experiencing? Familiar ones?
. . .Just a lot of voices. . .any time I try to sleep.
(Waits for him to continue with a knowing smile.)
. . .I um. . [ a lot of things were stopping him actually- ]
And is there anything stopping you from taking a nap now?
Oh Sir Flins- . . .no i didn't get much sleep. . .
(Perhaps water isn't the best course of action in this case.) Didn't sleep well?
Well it's nice to know that I can manage to surprise you from time to time. [ he shakes his head lightly , giving a soft laugh. ] That reminds me. . .I never did punch you for drugging me that one time. I had to hurry off before I could.
𝘯𝘰 . I love it when you 𝘢𝘥𝘮𝘪𝘵 it . [ that just means ... lohen's 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘴 will grow stronger——and there's no way he could let illuga off the hook now . ] you ... say some things I don't expect . I'd rather have you 𝘬𝘦𝘦𝘱 your words ~.
[ now he's leaning back just enough so he can look at Lohen's face , giving a innocent look as he tilts his head. ] Say it like what , hm ? Would you rather me keep that little bit of information to myself ? [ he was very much aware of what he was saying , but he played it of as if he were ++
... 𝒉𝒆𝒉 , [ lohen simpered; he'd known that 𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘵——illuga would sometimes tell him to 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘺 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 , but he can't . he's just that 𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘥 to begin with . but with 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 ? he could let the ratnik rein him actually . ] don't say it like 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 , illuga .
[ in truth Illuga didnt mind being this close to Lohen. If anything he actually felt safer being held so tightly , as if even the voices in his head couldn't get him. It felt nice. . .maybe just a little longer. . . ] You may drive me crazy but. . .I do always miss you when you're gone. . .
[ lohen wished they could stay 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 for a while . for some reason , he's been having urges to have illuga for himself——at the same time , he doesn't want to conflict the other with these emotions . ] I'm ... glad that you 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 the same .
