He approached Peter less stealthily than he would have liked (boots made this horribly conspicuous noise on wood), and sat down awkwardly 'beside' him, keeping at least a foot of distance between the two. He brought his knees up and hugged them to his chest, not wanting to dangle his feet in the water, and looked out on the ocean.
"I think it's prettier at night."

"I haven't been out here much," he replied, fidgeting with his sleeves and generally uneasy. "Do you come out here often? At night, I mean."

He was silent for a minute.
"So."
Another pause.
"...what did you want to ask me about, Peter?"

God, he missed home. He never thought he would want it this much after trying to get away so many times before.
Johnny did have a point though. The sea was gorgeous when he didn't think of it as an equivalent to the Great Wall of China.
"I don't - didn't get to see the ocean much when I was home, but any way - " The reason why we're here, why I'm babbling like an idiot, why I'm wasting your time. "I wanted to know what happened."

And then he saw him. A crumpled figure. Though Larsa soon realized he had noticed the blood before he had seen the figure. Rushing to his side, he ran straight passed the one responsible for it and fell to his knees beside the man.
Work. Please work. You have to work! He fumbled through his messenger bag as his stockings soon began to soak with blood. Grasping what he sought, he yanked out a beautiful blue glass bottle filled with a slightly viscous glowing green liquid.
With a strained grunt, the boy turned the young man over so he was reclining against Lara's knees. He supported his head, mentally gauging the damage.
I wish I could cast cure. I wish I could cast anything. I wish I was -home-But he wasn't, so Larsa quickly pushed back the torn, bloodied clothing. Setting the bottle beside him in the sand, he fished inside his bag for a water bottle. Opening it, he crudely splashed it all over the man's torso and tried ( ... )

The blood was washed off clean, and liquid was being poured down his throat. Slowly, Peter was coming back to consciousness - more like grasping desperately for it. He could hear muffled noises, and his vision was blurry, but at least it was better than nothing.

Something caught his attention, and it wasn't the hoped-for presence of land or something else a reasonable distance away. There was one person, which looked like a boy, kneeling over someone who was seriously hurt from the looks of things.
Probably one of the hostages Adam thought to himself as he hurried over to see if they needed any more help. Help which Adam wouldn't mind offering.

The events of the ball proved this wasn't the safest place and Adam wanted to be prepared in case something like that were to happen again ( ... )

The man's similar accent made the boy blink. He sounds like me...
"I used a Hi-Potion on him. All of his wounds have started to close, but he-"
Blue eyes widened as he watched the man insert his own blood into him.
"You know this man? I was walking close by and someone attacked him. I rushed to him and found they had just left him to die!" His clothes were stained in Peter's blood, but when he looked at him he was relieved to find him healing even faster.
"He will be fine, now."
