Friendly Reminder to Not Be Like Him...

[immortalmarshal]

[The feed opens up to reveal Cor in his traveling clothes, sitting near a beach. It's sunrise, and it looks rather lovely....

Except for the fact that Cor himself looks like he's had the snot beaten out of him, bloody bandages and all.]

Just a question - anyone else noticed that all the monsters have grown more aggressive than normal lately? Pretty sure that they're not supposed to be this eager to tear people apart.

If any Natives know if this is a regular occurrence, feel free to let the rest of us know.

[He pauses as he adjusts the bandages around one arm.]

...doesn't feel like it's normal, though...

[The last bit is muttered just as the feed is turned off.]

Thank you for the offer, Marshal. See yourself to better health first.

If you need any medication aside from potions, first aid kits are all replenished. However, you will have to look for painkillers in our house.

[Who is the master of switching conversation topic? Ignis is.]

[Now it's Cor turn to be grateful for this conversation to be voice only. It'd be otherwise hard to convince Ignis that he's not grimacing at the idea of going near the younger house in his state, risking a full-on fussing-over from at least one of the younger men.]

I'll keep that in mind, though I hope I don't need it this time. At least there's no broken bones or anything that bad....

[voice] [private]

[regalblaze]

[That's because Cor deserves to be fussed over. Of course, Ignis has a suspicion that the man would prefer his wounds to be treated elsewhere.]

That is really good to hear.

I will come by the house to make some dinner. Don't strain yourself.

[Cor's about tk prot3st, but thinks better of it at the last second. One night if letting someone else cook for both of them wouldn't hurt...

So instead, Ignis will hear an amused huff instead.]

Always the group caretaker....

[voice] [private]

[regalblaze]

[There is a bit of a huff on the other side as well, Ignis undoubtedly smiling.]

I do not mind, especially the cooking.

It is the least I can help you with right now until you feel a tad bit better.

[You don't want to succumb yourself to his Majesty's cooking skills, right?]

[voice] [private]

[immortalmarshal]

[There's a reason why Cor always insisted on doing a lot of the cooking at the older Eos house, and his name is Regis.]

Well, at least I can trust you to help sneak some vegetables into the dish.

[voice] [private]

[regalblaze]

I will use the most inconspicuous vegetables ever.

[The ones that blend in expertly.]

...Thank you.

[For talking to him and distracting him from dark thoughts, even if for a moment.]

[voice] [private]

[immortalmarshal]

I'll leave it to you then.

[Because Cor wouldn't trust most people besides their little group to help get much-needed nutrients into certain members.]

...I'll see you soon.

[You're welcome goes unsaid, but the implication hangs across the conneciton.]
