Huffing Syx tried to wave her off, “It’s fine really.” 

Actually, it was embarrassing as the bruises were revealed. As his tight suit was peeled back, dark bruises covered his arms and sides courtesy of a hard staff. Those weren’t the ones he didn’t want to show, though.

Syx took the pills but shrugged, “These don’t really work well on me.”

Pressing the ice to the worst of the swelling, he leaned his head on her, “I’ll be fine. I promise. They’ll heal before you know it,” he was covered in scars, she had to understand that wounds happened. She’d been covered in battle scars once too… but no more. They had disappeared with the ears. Something that was Emma and not Anna. A part of him hoped she was still his warrior woman. 

Anna was honestly relieved when he accepted at least the ice pack, breathing out a soft noise before a gentle smile. While almost all of the scars had left her body from the curse, she had maybe one or two that she had genuinely earned herself.. both from learning how to cook. They certainly didn’t hold a fascinating story, by any means.. but they were hers and she was almost stupidly proud of them. Beneath the calm exterior she had gained, that warrior woman was certainly there.. 

It just hadn’t had a chance to reveal itself yet. 

“Maybe a bath would help?” She suggested, though she wasn’t sure on that. Though perhaps if he had a bath she could join? The thought made her smile just a touch

“Bath yes,” Syx smiled softly, “Water always makes me feel better,” he figured it had to do with his semiaquatic nature.

Pulling her hand to bring her with him, he hesitated, dropping his forehead to her shoulder. Not wanting to meet her eyes as he admitted, “We’ll uhh… have to keep things above my waist, though. I don’t thing I could… or would want… not right now.”

Wrapping his arms around her, Syx just sighed. This wasn’t going to get easier.

“This was being careful. Bruises are a good thing… really…” he kissed her head and pulled away enough to finish stripping. Hissing in a bit of pain as he pulled off his underwear and turned to head to the bathroom, hoping she wouldn’t notice the the bruise on his crotch. It was embarrassing. All the more because it was going to kill his sex drive tonight.

Seeing the true extent of the injuries he had suffered had Anna’s hand moving up to cover her mouth, her eyes widening fractionally. Rather than making a scene about it, however, she took a deep breath to calm herself, her eyes closing as she did. When they opened again, her expression of concern was clear as day before she turned. 

She left for a while, but when she returned she had an ice pack covered by a thin cloth. Handing it to him, she held her other hand out palm up, a couple pills in her hand. “For any swelling,” She urged gently. 

Syx took the pills but shrugged, “These don’t really work well on me.”

Pressing the ice to the worst of the swelling, he leaned his head on her, “I’ll be fine. I promise.

“It’s nothing really, I’ve had far worse,” Syx regretted the words as soon as they left his mouth. Rushing to continue he elaborated, “I heal fast, they’ll be gone in a day or two.”

He still didnt want to take off the bottom of the suit. Doubting that her reaction to his lower half would be any better.

She looked to him as he rushed to explain himself, the concern only deepening. Sighing softly, she rose and embraced him tightly, nuzzling him gently as one hand rested at the base of his head. 

“..Alright..” She murmured, trying to calm herself. She wanted to believe him.. had to believe him, in fact. She knew she had to give him the benefit of the doubt, repeating that over and over again until she calmed a bit more. Pulling away just enough to rest her forehead against his, exhaling softly. 

“You should be more careful next time,” she urged gently. 

Wrapping his arms around her, Syx just sighed. This wasn’t going to get easier.

Anna frowned, looking up from the bruises to the man she loved, “..Its fine? Syx, these are so dark!! What happened!?” She exclaimed, her worry evident in her eyes. Shifting, she looked around before rifling around in the medicine drawer.. would anti inflammitory pills work? Pain pills?

She knew there wasn’t anything she could do for the bruises.. but surely there should be something that could help with the pain!?
