Kitsa couldn't help but smile at Orion fumbling with his words. "You are welcome," she replied warmly as she filled a goblet of wine for the both of them. She recorked the bottle, not intending to drink more than they needed to wash down their food. After passing a goblet to Orion, she took her plate and drink over to the same side of the bed he was sitting on and sat across from him at the foot of the bed. With nothing to be said, she began to eat eagerly. It had been a goodly bit of time since their last meal in the afternoon.

True to his appearance, Orion did not dig in, but did his best to maintain table manners on the bed. He sat upright and never took a very large bite of the meal. In the back of his mind, Orion was wondering whether Kitsa appreciated sophistication. Constantly, he stole glances at her from his meal when he thought she was focusing on her food. It wasn't something he could help. Even if he tried, there was no doubt that he couldn't avoid looking at her.

What could they talk about? Was there something to say? What was she interested in? Work was not a valid topic, Orion decided. What else? Many of his topics were exhausted already, but the idea of sitting in silence helped nothing! His brain fluttered with thoughts to share, but none of them sounded like good discussion topics.

Orion had a tendancy to tap his feet when he got nervous or without answer. And off his tapping foot went...

Air coughed and rolled over. Her head was pounding but at least she wasn't unconscious any longer. "Shut up." she growled. "The silence is deafening." She wasn't about to open her eyes to the pain of any light, she was at least smart enough to avoid further pain to her already aching head.

Orion bit his lip rather quickly at Air's rather unspohisticated choice of words and worse yet, her contradiction. Be quiet, because the silence is deafening? The male caretaker for the girl didn't really know how to respond to that, nor what to do for her in that case. Perhaps she was experiencing pain? Yes, that was probably it, considering all of the alchohol she took in. But Orion knew nothing of how to solve that. He hated that feeling of being unable to solve an issue. He looked up to Kitsa with a confused look upon his face; it was something he had never expressed since he had joined the group, so it looked odd on him, who always seemed so sure and calculated about himself and his actions.

Kitsa was surprised at the sudden awakening of Air. "How are you feeling?" She asked tenderly, attempting to keep the volume down so that the hung-over half-elf's headache wasn't agitated. "Would you like to be alone?"

"Ugh." Air muttered. "My brain is too big and my skull is too small. Only one way to medicate the headache is to continue drinking. I'm not usually such a feather-weight...must be that my tollerance has worn off..." She reached into her shirt and undid the knot binding her chest. "Who all is here in this room with me? Am I in jail?"

"It is just I, Orion, and Kitsa," Orion's smooth, low voice said. His naturally fluid voice was always gentle upon the ears, since Orion never spoke loudly. His natural speaking range made even shouting lower than expected. "You are in a bed at the inn."

Kitsa frowned when Air said she should keep drinking. "I do not think continuing would be wise. You did not eat before you drank, which may be why you were such a...'feather-weight'. I brought you some bread and water. It should be easy on your stomach," the quarter-elf explained. "When you are feeling better, I will get you more dinner, but no more booze." She raised her finger at her last comment, chastising Air.

"Dinner good." Air grunted. "So there are three people other than me? You, Orion, and Kitsa...makes sense...who's you?"

Kitsa chuckled at Air. "Oh, do not tease poor Orion!" Kitsa chastised, but she was still smiling. She passed the bread to Air and left the water mug in her reach on the nightstand. "Eat a little of this, and I will bring you a meal."

While invisible to Air and Kitsa, Orion was relieved that their charge was doing better. It was comforting to him that nothing came of the tirade. Of course, he had no complaints with getting to sit with Kitsa, in some sense, alone for a while. In the end, he was partly glad that Air woke up. For the last few moments, he had felt his throat tightening up as silence hung over them. She was just the thing to break that uneasiness, though not necessarily in a positive way.

Air ate the food with renewed vigor, and looked to Kitsa to go get her more. She chugged down the water and shot a look to Orion. "So, whacha in here for? Didja steal some crusts from the missus and she forced you to look after poor little me?"

"I came by choice," Orion responded. His voice was quiet and low. "The others expressed no interest in taking care of you, so I lost patience with them and did so myself. I carried you here and thereby accepted responsibility for you."

Air's cheeks flushed with color. "Well isn't that sweet of you." she gave a half smile and touched her lips softly with her fingertip, tracing the outskirts of her mouth to check for drool. While Orion wasn't her kind of person, she was one to be more preoccupied with her own vain persuits of self beauty. She licked her fingertips and combed her fingers through her bangs to straighten them out.

Orion did not how to respond to such a woman. Better to keep silent, he decided. To Air, he gave a nod of respect, as if to accept her indirect thanks for his assistance. "Would you like to be left alone, Miss Air?"
