¿ªÔÆÌåÓý[Kites] When Kites noticed Gen looking up at him, his face lit up and his mouth involuntarily smiled.? It seemed like she was trying to look at him, so he brushed her tousled hair out of her face and cupped her cheek, giving it a little rub with his thumb as he turned her towards him.? Her voice still sounded very labored, so when she tried to speak, he listened and without hesitation nodded at her request. "Okay, hang on...let me see if I can find something," he said, withdrawing his wing.? He was gently extricated himself, pulling the other out from under her, lifting her up and then tucked her back in.? Jumping up to his feet, he scratched his head as he started searching for something food related.? He has checked downstairs but it seemed to be quite bare and the bottom most floor had some visitors of the rodent variety, scattering to the shadows as they disappeared beneath the floor boards.? A few minutes later, he returned with some opened bags of chips and a bottle of water, not having found anything else.? "Here, I found some chips and a bottle of water.? If you'd like, I can prop you up on my knees so you're more elevated or you can lean against me if you feel like you can sit up?? I can feed you a few chips at a time so that you can take it easy..." "Or...if you can't chew, I can also..um...I can chew it up for you..." he said, turning beet red at the mere idea.? "You know, like how a...um..like how a mother bird feeds her chicks?? Oh God, that probably sounds so unappetizing."? He suddenly regretted saying that, looking away.? Who the hell would want someone to vomit out chewed up food into their mouth?? Ugh, how embarrassing... (Gen) Kites left and came back a short time later. At least, it might've been a short time. Gen was having trouble with time. And everything else really.? The winged youth did at least bring her some chips and water though, which she began to devour.? It took so damned long though.? She knew she could eat faster than she was, but everything, even chewing and swallowing, seemed to take forever. But she could feel her body starting to revive as soon as the food reached her stomach. "More," the androgyne said, reaching for one of the bags of chips.? Kites was talking to her.? It was difficult to eat and listen at the same time. And Kites seemed to be... babbling?? It was hard to make sense of what he was saying. Something about birds and elevators? "Need more," Gen said when she'd finished the bag of chips.? Her body was telling her things through cravings.? "Need... protein.? Meat.? Think there's some... jerky... somewhere.? Nuts maybe."? Her eyes focused on his for a long moment.? "Kites."? It wasn't a question but a confirmation.? "What're you doing here?"? That was a question. ? Tag - Kites, open |
