[Assuming he'll be posted in the medbay, Rosamund arrives some hours after the return with a bouquet of flowers and a box of fresh fish and chips.]

Sidon? [She edges through the door warily.] Are you feeling all right?

[The food chain involves so many big things eating the littler versions of themselves, why are people freaking out]

Oh, don't be silly. It's nothing at all. And I thought you might be hungry!

[Setting both at his side. Also taking a seat presumptuously.]

So...You're in very good spirits!

Nope. It's a mystery to me. I'm guessing some kind of secret mission?

[Was he on team Distraction or team Extraction?]

Though I have to say, I'm very sorry for your loss. Does it hurt much now?

[One day we'll go to a shark world and he will be the most regular one.

Rosamund sort of just sits there for a moment. The explanation needs a second to soak in.]


Are you...are you saying you were made to live a completely different life in only one day?

[She holds for another moment. "Carelessness." What a blithe way to speak about losing a whole limb. And she can't imagine its the whole truth.]

Sidon. [She puts a hand over his remaining one, looking him clear in the eyes.] I'm very grateful that you're back, and that you're feeling a little better. But it sounds very much like you've all had your heads meddled with, and on top that you were made to fight...what, reanimated bodies? And you were in a prison?

Why?

[her secret is you just grab people's hands and look pleadingly into their eyes with your big cerulean orbs

He calms. Maybe he's not deeply troubled by the events within the dream, they seem to lean more adventurous than harrowing, but he certainly wasn't above them. It's better that he settles into his own skin again. There's no need for show.]


I wonder why you were sent then. As an exercise? Or a test?

[And for what? If they wanted to test their mettle in battle there were far simpler ways. And ones that dealt less permanent damage, be it physical or psychological.]

Do you still feel that life inside of you? Or is it more like a dream now?

[The fin flutter tugs at the edges of her mouth. She'd never say aloud for fear of being rude, but it is deeply endearing how his thoughts are reflected in them. Really, it's incredible that the fish folk of her world came out so twisted looking while the shark citizens of his were comely, if he's any example to go by.

Then again, that might be the effects of the Times of Shadow.]


Well, I hope it fades soon enough. It can get confusing when your memories double up, what really happened and what hasn't.

I'm just glad you're back. Even if not in one piece. [She gives his hand a squeeze.] And I bet whatever pros...prostetic? Whatever they make for you, it'll be very dashing. They have so many interesting inventions here, nothing seems too ludicrous to imagine!

[Save for a way home, but there's no point in beating that dead horse.]

That so? [Funny he should put it that way.] What do you think the moral of the story is?

[If he's lucky, it won't be a standard too high to hold.]

Cowardice? No, no, it's not cowardly at all. [She grins brightly, tilting her head to better catch his eye.] Frankly, I'd be more worried if you were too eager to stick strange things on your body. And if it's more metal? Especially when you spend so much time in the water?

You're simply being reasonable. Anyone would feel the same way in your position. Trust me.

You know, [She says slowly, and with no small amount of awe.] I think that's the first time in a long time that I've heard a morals to a story that I can get behind.

Though, it would depend on the drug I think? That's a sliding scale, there's different things. But the other two, I'm all in! [She grins up at him.] You've grown so very wise, Prince Sidon. Congratulations.

[Then with a sudden start, she gasps.]

Your fish and chips! Oh, they're probably so cold by now!
