(Yeah……)

"I-I'm sure I-it does," Luna sighed with slight relief almost melting into her food, "B-but not mine y-yet."

Cyrus's eyes widened a little bit. "Well, that's a relief, if slightly surprising," he said.
He took a few sips of water while he thought of what other conversation they could have.

"Y-yep," Luna started toying with her food. She took a bite trying to think of what else they could talk about. Socializing was actually a lot of effort, and Luna wasn't expecting this.

Cyrus gave Luna a slight smile, but he was quiet for now. He didn't want to bother her… In fact, he was becoming a little self-conscious. Had he really been okay with just dumping all of his burdens on her, when she was struggling too?

"S-so you and E-eira put the whole guild together by y-yourselves?" Luna said as an attempt to make idle conversation. He looked uncomfortable, something she wasn't sure she would ever see someone other than her look like.

"Mostly, yeah. We kept up correspondence with Uriah and Sparrow for some advice, and of course, couldn't have done it without new members, but… otherwise, we built it from the ground up," Cyrus explained.

"Th-that's pretty impressive," Luna responded her eyes slightly wider, "I-It looks great."

"Thanks…" Cyrus replied, "I'm impressed we were able to do this too. It took a lot of effort on everyone's part. Hopefully it'll all pay off in the end."

"I-I'm sure it will," Luna smiled over at him, "Y-you have an amazing t-team behind you. I-It'll all work out, I know it."

"Yeah, that I do," he agreed, finishing off his drink.

"Mhm," Luna hummed finishing off the last of her food. She ran out of ideas for conversation topics again.

"Say, uh… Let's go see Alex, I guess?" Cyrus said, "He should be doing alright, but it's probably best we check anyway."

“Y-yeah,” Luna nodded standing up from the table, “W-we should do that now.”

Cyrus put away his plate and started walking towards the infirmary. Alex was still out, and he suddenly got worried. "Hey, has he straight up been unconscious this whole time?" he asked.

Luna was behind Cyrus looking worriedly at Alex. Her brows were knit together and she instinctively pulled her hood higher up on her head. She didn’t like this.

"Well, god damn," Cyrus said, looking over Alex, "I thought he was out of the woods. Never should have left his side…"

“I-Is s-something w-wrong?” Luna asked him. Her voice was involuntarily shaking and the stutter continued to get worse.

"I'm not sure. If he's been in and out, that's one thing, but if he's been passed out for an hour or two, that's not good," Cyrus said, crouching next to Alex's bed. "I doubt it's anything that can't be fixed, though." Except that last part was a lie.

Luna frowned slightly, but nodded before slipping into the background of the room. She needed to let others do their work to help him.

Cyrus started walking around the infirmary, questioning people who had tended to Alex. The general consensus seemed to be that he had stirred a little bit, probably woken up at some point, but eventually gave in. Cyrus hoped it was true.
He approached Luna. "It's… I think he's fine…" Cyrus was a little out of breath and nervous, but he still felt mostly relieved.

Luna nodded letting herself relax slightly, “O-Okay. Th-thank you.”

Alex woke from his comatose state in both fear and pain. He clutched his chest trying to remember where he was.

Luna walked over to Alex. She had seen him move quickly, “A-Alex?”

Alex flinched at the mention of his name. His eyes were wild with fear but they relaxed when he saw Luna "Oh… sorry…" he muttered as he slowly sat up. "Nightmare…" he rubbed the spots where his ribs were cracked. He looked around the infirmary "What time is it?"

“O-oh. I-It’s late now,” Luna looked down, “A-Are you doing better?”
