48th Draw [Voice/Action/Flailing? FLAILING.]

[Damn Malnosso.

The snow blew into Selphie's face as she began padding as fast as she could through the forest. She aches everywhere, can't think straight, feels like throwing up and generally wants to crawl into a hole and die. She doesn't know when they took her and she definitely doesn't remember what they did (hooray for sedation) but she knows that it's freezing and she's wearing a new feather dress. It does nothing to block out the cold chilling her skin or making her teeth chatter uncontrollably before she finds something she's only heard about.

A New Feather station.

For the most part, it's out of the wind and she scrambles into it before her frozen fingers begin clawing at the blanket but she couldn't open it fully. Her lips are blue from exposure and all she wants to do is sleep but even Selphie knows that she has to stay awake. She curls in on herself to keep what heat she can inside before she spots a journal on top of a small parcel. She reaches to open the book and presses the button that will let her call for help.

She'd head into town herself but well... frostbite is never a fun thing. Her voice is weak and tired sounding but she tries to put some energy into it. Damn medication. She decides right then and there that she's never getting sick.]


C-can anyone h-hear me? It's Selphie.

I'll be there in a moment. Do you want me to get you anything? Blankets?

I have some lentil soup on the stove. I can bring it right up.

You're welcome, Selphie.

[And in a few minutes, she's knocking on the door quietly before bringing in a tray with a covered soup bowl.]

[Selphie hears the knocking as her eyes peel open.]

It's open.

[Rydia balances the tray long enough to open the door, then slips inside. Of course, she instantly looks Selphie over while heading to her bedside, all concern.]

Don't rush yourself, alright? Just do as much as you think you can...and if you need anything, use the journal. I won't be far.

[Selphie nods before attempting to push herself up. She manages a little bit before she falls back. She hates the weak feeling that comes after a kidnapping and the frown on her face shows it before she nods.]

Seeing as I can't even sit up right now...

[Rydia gently sets the tray down.]

Ah, that's nothing a few pillows to prop you up can't fix. Let me get a few more, and it won't be a problem.

[She returns a few moments later with some plump pillows.]

Alright, let's see how these work for you!

[It takes Selphie a few moments but she pushes herself upward as she uses her arms to stay upright.]

Let's try 'em out.

[Quickly, Rydia slides the fluffy pillows behind Selphie, adding enough to keep her upright. At least, hopefully.]

How's that?

[We have a winner as Selphie falls back into the pillows with a sigh of relief. She gives a thumbs up a few moments later.]

Better!

[Rydia smiles and moves the tray over.]

If you need anything else, just say so. I'm not so busy that I can't check in on you.

[Selphie reaches for the spoon and after dipping it into the soup, she brings it up to her mouth and eats the first real food she's had in a week.]

I will.
