Hmph. I suppose this city thrives on idiots who would put on a mysterious pair of shoes that randomly showed up out of nowhere.

Have some common sense.

[ Private to Ahiru ]

...How are you feet, moron?

And there's... something I still need to talk to you about. Maybe it will be easier without the distraction of another damn curse.

[ /Private ]

red shoes, damn curses, not so good at apologizing, ahiru, curse aftermath, you're all idiots

...Just because I thought the shoes were pretty...hmph...

My feet are okay. Sorta.

...Stay off of them until they're healed.

If you need anything, let me know. I'll take care of it.

[[Says the guy who was acting all stubborn when she wanted to help him when his leg was hurt...]]

...Kay. I don't think they're that bad, though.

[ Yeah, well. Fakir is a hypocrite. ]

Never take a curse lightly.

...Do you have a moment?

Mm. Well, I'm letting my feet soak right now, so it's really not bad.

Sure! What is it?

...Good. You keep doing that.

[ It would... probably be better if he did this in person, right? ]

Where are you right now? Your room?

Hm? Yeah, I'm in my room. Are you coming?

[Private] sword_and_quill October 23 2010, 23:27:13 UTC
...Yeah.

[ Awkward pause. ]

If that's all right.

Sure! Must be important then...

Well, door's open whenever you're ready!

[ Fakir was starting to think this would be pretty pointless. Was she really going to even want an apology from him that took over a week for him to say?

Either way, she did deserve one, curse or not. So the ex-knight sighed and made his way to the redhead's room and came to a stop at the door, knocking firmly on the surface twice. ]

[[Ahiru simply sat on her bed, Fluffy lying down beside her, as she swished her feet about in the warm water.

She didn't know what Fakir wanted to talk about, but it seemed really important...]]

Hm? Come in!

[ He slowly turned the knob, opening the door and cautiously stepping inside Ahiru's room. In that moment, it dawned on him that he hadn't set foot in there since long before the last time she left the City.

But he shook those thoughts away. It was good to see that she was taking care of her feet, anyway. He closed the door behind him.

Now, how was he to go about this... he might as well just bite the bullet, he supposed. ]

About that curse... a little over a week ago...

[ Dammit, why did this have to be so awkward? ]

[[Ahiru swished her feet again and tilted her head to the side, lips curling up into a tiny smile.

But his words baffled her. There were...lots of curses in this place. It was a little hard to figure out which one he was talking about specifically.

She scratched her head.

...Well, there was that one where he yelled at her and told her to shut up. But she knew that was just a curse.]]

Umm...Which one? Is something wrong?

[ Fakir shifted his weight from one foot to the other uncomfortably. ]

The one where I was... well, yelling about everything.

[ It shouldn't be this hard to apologize. It's not as though he had never done it before. Maybe it just seemed more awkward now because he had wasted every other opportunity to do so.

Regardless, he sighed. This had been bothering him since just after the curse. He needed to do this and stop dwelling on it. ]

Look, I... know it was a curse, but I shouldn't have treated you like that. I'm sorry.

...Ehhh?

[[She grins and shakes her head.]]

That was a long time ago! You don't have to be sorry! I know it was a curse. I figured that out later. And I yelled at you, too, and I did leave Fluffy's toy there, so...

[ ...As expected from her, he thought with a strange fondness clinging inside of him. But he did feel like a weight had been lifted off of his shoulders. As irritating as Ahiru could be at times, and whether curses were involved or not, she still didn't deserve to be treated like like that. ]

I know it's taken awhile. I just wanted to tell you.

[ And with that, he headed for the door again, pulling it open and stepping back out.

But just before shutting the wooden barrier, he paused, glancing back toward the redhead. ]

Is there anything you need?
