The Gods of Suburbia {RP}

[Silent_Wolf]

Because it was the most convenient route to home?

Thoth had curled up on the stone that wrapped around the fountain and had his eyes shut; everything just hurt. What the hell had happened?

[spirit_queen]

Well, in order to know the route he was taking, she'd have had to know where he was coming from...

As they rounded the corner to the library, Tina gasped; he was all sprawled out on the sidewalk. She sprinted ahead of the others and kneeled beside him. "Thoth? Can you hear me?"

[Silent_Wolf]

He cracked open an eye and managed a smile, but when he spoke, it came out more as an attempt to speak; it was a cracked groan and he grimaced, grabbing his throat.

Apep had returned home and was watching this in a little crystal, quite Jareth-King-Of-The-Goblins-style, and chuckled. "Well, not the person I'd hoped it would hit, but I do enjoy some misery here and there." He crunched the crystal and sprinkled the dust over a roast, which he put in the oven to cook. He quite enjoyed cooking, actually.

Tina didn't have the sort of energy required to heal, at the moment, but she had to try something; she placed one of her tiny, child-like hands on his forehead, and sucked away a portion of his pain. Not all of it, mind but enough of it that she hoped her could at least sort of stand and be supported back to the house.

Immediately, she grimaced; what a monster headache! Her limbs felt like they were made of lead... no, literally, it was more than just being heavy, they went curiously numb and felt foreign to her.

This was not going to be a fun trip home.

[Silent_Wolf]

He shook his head at her and managed to sit up, holding one of her shoulders in a hand and pointing at his throat with another, making a face. Then he made a short, odd noise; Toby recognized it as ibis for "stop that" and said so.

[spirit_queen]

Tina nodded. "That's all I planned to do," she said. "Do you think you can stand if I help you?" Tina asked her boyfriend.

[Silent_Wolf]

He nodded and looked at Set in confusion. What was going on?

[spirit_queen]

"Hmm? Oh! We brought him along to track you; otherwise, we'd have searched the city all day; I didn't have the power left to do a magical tracking spell, so we did it the old-fashioned way," Tina explained.

[Silent_Wolf]

Thoth nodded and with her help was able to stand up, but he was still shaking pretty badly. He just wanted to try and sleep this off at this point.

[spirit_queen]

Tina had to stand on her toes to be of any assistance to Thoth, who was that much taller than her...
