Aila:  *skips past his room with a take-out order of cheesy bread and some ginger ale*  Knock knock?

Hugo: *voice sounds funny because of stuff up nose* Whossat?

Aila:  *peeps around the corner to see Hugo piled under blankets*  Hugo?

Hugo: *brightens somewhat* Hi Aila.

Aila:  I brought you some food, if you're up for it?  *holds up the cheesy bread and ginger ale*

Hugo: *sneezes* Thanks. I haven't had any cheesy bread in a week!

Aila:  That's been about as long as it's been since I've seen you!  When all did you get sick?

Hugo: About *coughs* a week ago.  After I got back in my own body.  How are you ... and how are things in the castle?

Aila:  Well, thankfully, as you noticed everyone's back in their bodies, and now everyone's celebrating another one of those Ironhead holidays - Valentine's Day.

Hugo: Yeah, Valentine's Day.  *sneezes* You know, that's when Stallion and I first starting seeing each other last year.  *goes into a coughing fit*

Aila:  It doesn't seem like it's been that long, does it?

Hugo: *coughs* Hey - have you heard anything from Jacques lately?

Aila:  *giggles and blushes*  I just came back from seeing him.  He finally made it back from Caleria.  *sparkle!*

Hugo: *smiles, but only half-heartedly because he's sick* That's great Aila.

Aila:  And he brought me something for Valentine's Day.  *leans over to show him the pretty gold chain with the Earth rune charm on it*

Hugo: Wow.  It's the Earth rune.

Aila:  I feel kinda silly - I know we were super busy with the...Moose Lion incident but I didn't have a chance to get [him] much of anything.

Hugo: *coughs* I'm sure seeing you after being away so long was a good enough gift.

Aila:  Yeah...He said that he stopped by to see Mema in the village and that she was under the weather too.  That's part of what took him so long to come back - he stayed with her for a few more days until she got back on her feet.

Hugo: *nods and lies back against his pillows* How's Louis?

Aila:  He's doing about as well as can be expected.  He's...he's trying to put a brave face on it but just between you and me, I think he's cracking a little]

Hugo: What about Apple? And Mathiu?

Aila:  Apple and Mathiu have gotten closer - they needed one another for support and that's finally looking like it's really coming together.  Mathiu still seems a little sad, but I think that might be because some of his relatives have come back.  I'm not sure about that because I've not actually [seen] them.

Hugo: I heard Elenor came back. *coughs some more*  Urgh.

Aila:  Elenor...I've [heard] of her but I don't think I've met her.

Hugo: You'd know her if you met her.  *tries to laugh but ends up in a coughing fit*

Aila:  *startles slightly as he coughs*  Here, drink something.  I guess if she's around, I'll bump into her soon - I think I've managed to meet all the new people that have come by...

Hugo: *takes the ginger ale and takes a small sip.*  There's all those new people from Falafel ... er, Falenas.

Aila:  Right, and their prince Free...Frija...Forger...FREY.  *chuckles, embarassed*  He's got this big long name but he asked us to call him 'Frey'.

Hugo: He told me to put my head over some hot water because it'd help clear my lungs ... or something like that.

Aila:  Steam opens your breathing passages.

Hugo: Hunh?  *sniffles and looks at Aila blankly*

Aila:  You kinda get the same effect if you put eucalyptus root underneath of your nose.

Hugo: I'll take your word for it.

Aila:  I hope so!  It would keep you from being less stuffy!  *knowing smile*

Hugo: *grins*

Aila:  I don't know if Mathiu has any, or if I can send someone to Vinay del Zexay to get any more.  I'll be more than happy to put in for some if you think you need it?

Hugo: Eh - I think this has almost run its course.

Aila:  Good.  So hopefully you'll be up and around in no time!  *beams*

Hugo: Hopefully!
