[ehnnui]

...I would rather be able to help, actively.

[dodging that question!]

[goodknightdaddy]

It's true I'd appreciate your help, but recovery can't be rushed. Take your time and recover fully.

[ehnnui]

I can't really rush it, regardless. I can only do my best to rest.

[goodknightdaddy]

Indeed. Worry about your recovery and nothing else.

[ehnnui]

[he looks up at the familiar ceiling, pausing.]

...I am not a child anymore, my lord.

[as though Kierean knew him as a kid.]

I cannot only worry about what happens within these four walls.

[goodknightdaddy]

[He just assumes it's a generalized statement.]

Perhaps. But healing is your concern for now, like it or not. That's also a duty.

[ehnnui]

I am saying that I am already doing that.

[goodknightdaddy]

Ah...

[He looks a little embarrassed.]

My apologies. I'm treating you like a child.

[Awkward a moment, he clears his throat.]

Can I bring you anything?

[ehnnui]

...Information, if you don't mind. I know my knights are in good hands, but... it makes me nervous all the same.

[goodknightdaddy]

Of course.

[And he will update Kamukura on everything, the recovery of the injured, the status of the hunting parties, all that.]

a) hEY GMAIL TELL ME WHEN I HAVE TAGS b) HAVE I BEEN MISSPELLING KEIREAN'S NAME THIS WHOLEASS TIME??

[ehnnui]

[Kamukura soaks up the information like a sponge, asks prudent questions, but ultimately seems satisfied.]

Thank you, my lord.

Yes but I genuinely didn't notice and had to go check if that helps

[goodknightdaddy]

We should be done by the beginning of winter I think. In time for you to be ready to travel.

i reread the thread and was like... wait... wAIT...

[ehnnui]

My apologies for not being able to help until then.

Fair

[goodknightdaddy]

When you're feeling better you can assist me with paperwork at least.

[ehnnui]

I could begin with that now.

[goodknightdaddy]

Are you certain?

[ehnnui]

I shouldn't move much, but my mind is clear.

[goodknightdaddy]

Very well. I'll leave some of it to you.

[He resists telling him not to overdo it.]

[ehnnui]

Thank you.

[he knows he's being kind of irresponsible but also if he can't be useful he'll fucking implode?]

[goodknightdaddy]

But... tomorrow.

[He'll divert a small amount for Kamukura, he knows the guy has mainly been sleeping, which means he shouldn't give him a stack of reports]

[ehnnui]

All right. I would not want to inconvenience you further by being demanding.

[goodknightdaddy]

[He starts to say something then stops.]

Sir Kamukura.

[ehnnui]

[clearly catching that]

My lord?

[goodknightdaddy]

[He just shakes his head.]

I'll see what I can do to mitigate your boredom.

[ehnnui]

[it's true. it's true that when he gets bored he's like an understimulated dog, and gets destructive. but he is, like, embarrassed about it?]

...Thank you, my lord.
