OCC: Continuation of 'Waking'.
Eris-an moved through the sword steps nearly flawlessly. True to his word he had infact walked out of the hospital two days after his attack... then spent nearl a week in bed paying for it. But after the inital 'rest days' he'd started into a routine that would help him build his strength after Psi's attack. And now almost three weeks since that night he was on his feet and moving almost normaly. Every now and then one move or two would give cause to stop but Eris-an refused to be defeated and worked through it again and again to strengthen those muscles. Finishing he sighed, "What is it?" he asked a very amused looking Quinn, who had come to sit on the floor at the edge of the mat.

"My sister is going to kill you." Quinn said, "You're working far too hard."

"Not nearly hard enough." Eris-an responded, a little defensive since he didn't know where this conversation was going. "If I had it my way..." he trailed off, eyes clouding over with some unfamiliar emotion.

"If you had it your way?" Quinn prompted him to continue.

"Tash would be already home... safe." Eris-an finished, almost adding 'in my arms.' but left it out. It seemed just a little too cliche.

"And Psi?"

"Vulture food." Eris-an finally turned to face his friend. "What?" he asked after seeing the stupid grin on Quinn's face.

"You know... as your technical 'bodyguard' I can't let you go." Quinn said, testing the waters. If what he thought was true then Eris-an was about to get very possessive of his idea of rescuing Tash.

"And just how do you suggest to stop me?" Eris-an challenged.

"With these." Quinn stood and twirled his practice weapons.

Eris-an growled, lauching into an attack. He'd been itching for a fight and Quinn had just provided the outlet. The session was short and simple, Eris-an beating down his opponent with shear will power and strength, putting all fear for Tash and his own anger at himself for being too weak to protect her into it.
It wasn't until after he had his friend on the ground and disarmed did Eris-an notice that Quinn was smiling.

"You really love her don't you." It was more a statment then a question. "Well then," Quinn stood brushing himself off. "Guess this means I'm flying."

"I do." Eris-an admitted, and for some reason it didn't feel as strange saying it outloud as he thought it would. "But I can not ask you to come with me."

"You aren't. But that doesn't mean we aren't going to come anyway."

"We?" Then Eris-an noticed Kaelin leaning against the gym door.
