[AnnaCat17]

Dash nodded and went back to the hut quickly.

Liah went into her hut and lied down on her bed after she had taken off her boots and weapons. Now that she was alone and out of the situation, she didn't feel like crying anymore. She lied on her side, her back to the door. She curled up, her knees tucked up and her arms wrapped around herself. She squeezed her eyes shut, trying not to think about Magnus, but she couldn't help it. She had known that he was going to hate her, but she had hoped that he wouldn't, mostly once he saw how glad she was that he was alive and getting better, that she had forgiven him. She has began to falsely believe that he wasn't going to be angry at her anymore. But he was the same as he had been before Mount Weather had captured him. Angry at her. She hated that their relationship had been ruined. That it seemed to be broken beyond repair. And when Liah had tried to mend it, she had only made it worse. Over, and over, and over again. She kept on messing up. She hated herself for it, and she wished that it could fix on it's own. Or that Magnus would try to mend it. But, as they say, if wishes were horses beggars would ride.

Aww. My heart goes out to liah. )

-next day-

Dash wandered through tge forest with caia searching for fire wood. He forced himself to remain silent for the first time in known history as his conversation with mikah played over and over in his mind. He cast a glance at caua to ensure she didnt need help with her load before continuing to work silently.

Magnus felt better. He wasnt sure if it was from the chemicals finally being out if his system or from one of the girls from the tribe, kaylana, who was sniling sweetly at him as she helped him eat since liah hadnt permitted him to be untied yet. He was confused by kaylana's behavior as she sat in his lap, claiming it made it easier, and whispered quietly to him about different gossip she had heard but he enjoyed tge positive interaction he was having.

OOC: Liah is going to murder Kaylana in her sleep if she keeps making moves on her man.

Caia carried the firewood as they walked, enjoying the easy silence between them. But it wasn't like Dash to be do quiet. "Alright, what's going on?" she asks, glancing at him. "You're normally not this quiet."

Liah hadn't been near or in the lodge since Magnus had woken up. She was afraid of making things worse, of angering him. So she kept her distance, even though he was restrained. She went to tell Jesse, Remi's older brother that Magnus could be untied. He was able to walk around the village, but there had to be guards on him at all times. He would be able to rest in his old hut, with guards outside. If anything were to happen, he was to be restrained again. The guards who had been watching Magnus for a while had told her that he was doing well, so Liah thought that it was time to try again. But Liah wouldn't be there. She was planning to continue to avoid Magnus.

[AnnaCat17]

Oh that is the plan. Im hoping to stir the pot a bit.)

Dash blushed, the color seeming to be magnified by the red of his hair. "Its nothing important. Im sorry. I just had a conversation last night and now i figure its best to stop trying to force everyone to talk to me. Im sorry if im annoying you... Somehow." Dash tried to cut off his rambling but seemed to fail as ge realized he was most likely just making the situation worse.

As liah walked by the hut magnus was in to notify the guards she heard the unmistakable sound of a flirty giggle coming from inside even though everyone who wasnt a guard knew to stay away crom magnus for their own saftey.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Caia smiled a bit, thinking that it was adorable when he blushed. "No, it's fine. If I have a problem with it, you'll know. But I think it's fine. I don't mind when you talk."

Liah wrinkled her nose in disgust, because she immediately hated the sound of it and the person it came from. Jesse rolled his eyes at her. He went inside to rely the message to Magnus. "Liah is letting you be unrestrained. You are free to walk around, but there has to be guards with you at all times. You can sleep in your old hut if you would prefer." Jesse and another guard motioned for Kaylana to get back, and they freed Magnus from the restraints.

[AnnaCat17]

Kaylana blushed at bein caught but stood nearby expectantly. "i can watch him. Ive been with his all morning and weve been fine." She offered quickly.

Magnus didnt move mych when they freed him, not wanting to startle anyone. He rubbed his wrists where tge restraint had rubbed them raw before loojibg at the guards. "Has she said when i need to be gone by yet?"

Dash smiled faintly but resumed searching the woods for wood. "You dont have to pretend to like me caia. Its ok." He said, his voice covering up the sound of tge crunch of leaves as something came towards them.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

"You can come, but there has to be guards." Jesse shook his head. "No, she has not said anything about that yet."

"Come on." She nudged him playfully. "I like you."

[AnnaCat17]

Magnus nodded before walking off outside, in desperate need of fresh air. Kaylana followed along behind him closely, casting annoyed glances at the guards as they followed as well. "I can handle him you know."

Dash smirked at her. "Thanks. It means a lot." He suddenly looked around as he heard a twig snap and dropped the pile of wood he was carrying. "I think we should go."

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Jesse and the other guards followed closely behind. Jesse just laughed at what Kaylana said. "We should go to the healer first. Don't want your wrists to get infected."

Caia smiled, then it dropped when she heard something. She began to make her way back to the camp, rushing as she carried the firewood.

Mikah was walking by, carrying a pole of fish he had caught. He stopped, and raised an eyebrow when he saw there. "Liah's orders," Jesse explained, and he nodded. Mikah hadn't went to see Magnus since he had woken up, so it was the first time he would be seeing the scars on Mikah's face.
