Day 28: Bus 1

Zelgadis was not happy, at all. Not that this was any change, but the events of the past few hours had given him more to angst about than usual. Nightshift had been dreadful: first he was attacked by a small green man and then covered in leeches, neither of which lead to warm fuzzy feelings.

And now this.

When the nurse had come into his room with new clothes he had a small glimmer of hope-- some thief had taken his normal Landel's wear in the night, so perhaps this was a change in luck. However, it was not the godsend he had hoped for. Minus the threat of sedation, there was nothing in the universe that could make Zelgadis wear a bright lemon-yellow shirt. There was a jacket of a slightly more tasteful variety, so Zelgadis made good us of it-- he put all his coupons in a pocket and pulled up the hood. It was almost as good as his cloak. Well, no it wasn't, but it would have to do.

With mild protesting, Zelgadis was lead to a large yellow vehicle. He climbed the stairs, took a seat towards the back, and readied himself for another frustrating day of being attacked and threatened with spoons.

"It's not that bad," Valyn soothed, letting his arm drift around his cousin's waist. "And you need to eat. You can't let your strength down in here. Even if the food is strange sometimes." He tried to stay away from any meat swimming in grease.

"You'll feel better once you get a bit of fresh air."

"I hope so," he mumbled, wincing as the carriage turned once more. "And don't talk about food right now. It's the last thing that I want on my mind."

Valyn's arm felt nice around his middle. Shadow moved closer, brushing his leg against Valyn's. "What does outside look like?" he asked. "Does it look like home?"

"Alright, no talk about food." Valyn glanced out the window again, watching the scenery.

"It's like any forest on my father's lands. Or, well, my lands now." He needed to remember that he was the Lord Hernalth now. "It looks like it's autumn, the leaves are turning colors. It's heavily wooded, but it doesn't look like anything strange or unfamiliar. It's pretty, I suppose. I can't see the town, but I'm curious as to what it will be like."
