Sylvia nodded. "Okay sweetie.. don't go off too far, okay..? If you need me.. I'll be here." She kissed Abeo gently on the lips before laying down on her back and closing her eyes, trying to find sleep.. she felt pain, and loss. Her first night without Etna. She couldn't sleep with this pain.
Abeo had no plans of going anywhere, nuzzling her head against Sylvia's neck and nodding, "goodnight, babe. Thanks for everything... if there's any way that I could repay you for everything you've done, for both of us... just... thank you..."
"You'll find a way.. just.. help me find some sleep sweetie.." She said quietly, pressing back against Abeo and reaching back to pull the shapeshifter's arm around her. She needed all the support she could get as she tried to find sleep.
Abeo softly hummed an unfamiliar tune, something that was oddly comforting to both of them as she breathed warmly against Sylvia's neck. The accendo within Sylvia unintentionally warmed her, lulling the adjunct into a restful sleep. She faintly heard Abeo's voice as she drifted off, but she was too close to sleep to understand what the shapeshifter whispered.
Sylvia's dreams tried to reflect her new reality. Again, she dreamt of the wedding to Moroy but her heart fell as she noticed that Etna was not in attendance. The lighting adept had talked so much about the wedding that it seemed hollow without her.
A wedding without Etna.. it was a nightmare to Sylvia. She wouldn't imagine it without her. She knew Death was attending.. but she didn't know it would be like that.
Still, besides her dream, Sylvia slept very well, and woke up feeling refreshed, even as her heart ached. Immediately she looked for Abeo.
She didn't have to look far. The shapeshifter was laying on Sylvia's chest with her eyes closed, breathing slowly and holding the adjunct tight against her. Perhaps even Abeo slept every once and a while.
Sylvia smiled and closed her eyes, reaching up and rubbing Abeo's back slowly, sighing and missing her all the more. They had to find Moroy.. and fast.
The sleeping shapshifter jerked quickly and raised her head, looking bewildered, "shoot, I'm so sorry... I must have dozed off." She shook her head and sat up, "I didn't mean to... you were just...."
Sylvia smiled a little and sat up slowly, hugging her a little. "It's okay.. even an immortal shapeshifter needs to dream sometimes." She kissed Abeo on the cheek gently and then stretched. "Hmmm.. we should get moving.. we have to start looking for Moroy.."
"Yeah, I could tell you wanted him instead of me last night" she snickered, blushing for just an instant before the redness disappeared, "how about you go wake Eri?"
Sylvia laughed a little, nervous and now a little self-conscious of her inability to control her desire at times. She nudged her. "You would've sufficed, sweetie." She winked playfully and then moved out of the tent. "I'll get Eri.. we need to get moving."
Abeo nodded as SYlvia went out into the cool morning, feeling the chilly wind blow against her scantily clad evening wear. Surely Eri would be shocked to see Sylvia adorned in what Etna had jokingly given her.
Sylvia shivered and forgot her cloak! She gasped and moved back to the tent, snatching it immediately with a smirk at Abeo. "You must've slept well.." She grinned, wrapping her cloak around her close.
"I'm surprised you didn't freeze" she winked, still laying where she had been. "Now go and get Eri... I want to find somewhere to wash up and then we can head out. If you want, I can fly up and start scanning for him."
"That's up to you, sweetie.. it would help.. without Etna.." She frowned, then forced a smile. "I'll get Eri." She wrapped the cloak around her shoulders and moved out to look for Eri in one of the tents.
Sylvia moved to Eri's tent and peeked in slowly. She was huddled into a ball with a distraught look on her face. Sylvia could see her shaking slightly, a result of the cool morning chilling the water on her skin from the humid night before.
Oh, poor thing.. Sylvia frowned and moved over to Eri slowly, crawling in and moving to her, taking off her cloak and wrapping it around her. She could sleep a minute or two more. Sylvia would sit and watch, letting her warm up.
As soon as the cloak touched Eri's skin, the girl shrieked and opened her eyes, moving away from Sylvia with terror in her eyes until she took a deep breath, "Oh lord... you scared me!"
Sylvia jumped and moved back, covering up with the cloak. "Oh! I'm sorry, Eri.. I was just trying to warm you up.. that's all." She laughed, her heart pounding as she was scared too.
The girl took a deep breath, "sorry, I need to be woken up slowly." She rubbed her groggy eyes and looked at Sylvia curiously, "do you always wear that to sleep?"
Sylvia blinked and looked down, then her face flushed red. "Oh! Oh.. no.. not usually.. I.. uh.. I normally sleep nude, if I can help it. Out here I just stay in my clothes, but.. my normal ones we had to use for a fire two days ago." She admitted, hoping Eri wouldn't run out screaming or something.
She blinked in shock before giggling, "well I guess if you can pull it off, all the power to you. You wouldn't catch me dead in something like that, not even if I could pull it off."
Sylvia looked down and blushed redder, looking away and pulling on her cloak. "Oh, well.. thanks.. but you could pull it off, I'll bet. Just have to get the right thing for you. But come on, we can't have Abeo waiting on us. We have to look for Moroy today.." Sylvia had only a fleeting hope they would find him in one day's time.
