[So, how many of you are using the threat of curious lizagons to stay inside? How many of you re bored yet?

[Maybe that's why Leedin has carted in a bunch of sand, and it's covering half of the clear floor on the north side of the floor. There's even plenty of colors -- white, grays and black, reds, oranges and yellows, pink and even a few patches of olive green and purple. ]

[OOC: Leedin will probably let this persist until tomorrow.]

I can't help her at all.

[face in hands]

You can. You are.

Don't think for a second that being there for her isn't helping. It's the most important thing you can do for her right now.

If I don't tell her things to do she gets jittery and upset....

It's hard. I can't imagine how hard it is on both of you.

[Puts a hand over one of Red's and gives it a squeeze]

She trusts and loves you, Red. She wouldn't want anyone helping her through this but you.

You're both strong enough to get through this.

I know, so why complain?

Because there are people in the world who want to share your pain.

[The hand over Red's slides down until it's resting over Red's heart]

They want to ease the strain in here.

I want to help my dear little brother because he's shared his older brother's burdens so many times.

Will you let me?

Your burdens are a lot more than mine.

Red.

Stop trying to turn this into a contest. Or finding loopholes to think you're somehow not worthy of being fussed over.

...

[flops against Lavi]

Fine. But excuse me for being useless for a bit then.

[Wraps an arm around Red and tucks him closer]

You're very excused.

Appreciate it.

I am.

[Kisses the top of Red's head]

Thanks for letting me do this for you, Red.

What will we do....

We'll find what it takes to remove the curse. The goddess that bit her... she used to be the goddess of loyalty, but she was betrayed. That's probably why the bite causes an obedience curse.

Hmmm. But she did used to work with humans like Dellen and the others. If the other gods don't know how to reverse it... we could always try to make a deal with the source itself.

I will, I will.... I can do that...

Hey hey.

[Affectionate hair ruffle]

That's a last resort, okay? I'd prefer if this could be resolved without tangling with an angry goddess.

And call me selfish and fussy, but I don't want to put you in that kind of danger if it can be avoided.

I wish it was me in danger instead of her. It isn't right.

Seriously.

The gods here could give you Sabra people a break...

Especially her. She hates them so much.

Lenalee's already had to deal with so much god bullshit. It's not fair.

She shouldn't have to go through this again.

She shouldn't.

But she'll have to in the end, won't she.

...

I'm sorry, Red. I'm so so sorry.

It was dumb to think things would keep going smooth.

[Wait a minute... Lavi remembers having this conversation in reverse]

[Pulls back to lightly pinch Red's cheek]

It wasn't dumb, and this isn't over! I'm not gonna let some frothing at the mouth goddess interfere with you and Lenalee's happiness.

It already happened.
