When she offered to cook himself something to eat from the kitchens, he bit back the thought that came to his mind. Add a little poison and it will be very good indeed. He frowned at himself for even thinking such a thing. Was his control breaking?
"I'm coming apart too."
His anger flared quickly when he realized what he had just spoken. His eyes glared and his lips tightened. Shaking his head, he tried to distract her from his words by trying to relax a little and adding more. "We all are."
He had some consolation when she took his attempted joke for what he had meant it to be. A joke. Why he was trying for humor right now, he had no clue. He didn't feel up to any sort of happiness or laughter. Just the opposite was true. He wanted to curl up and let the world go on without him.
"We did get off to a bad start." He mentioned, trying to appease her so she wouldn't berate him for his hidden thoughts. Maybe if he was nice to her, she couldn't tell what was happening to his mind. "I'm Sanderon." He offered his name to begin the 'new' start she hoped for and put on his best attempt at a smile. He felt though that it was horribly wrong to smile, even if it wasn't a true one.
Talian had said that he was only going to be kept overnight for observation. Why was he still here after a three days? Could they tell what sort of things he was thinking? Maybe they were just waiting for him to leave on his own. He had not been allowed before. Maybe they wouldn't care now. He could only hope no one would really be around to notice.
Trying a new tactic, he spoke up to Lymsleia and said, "The healer said I could go tonight actually." He lied. "So if you could find my footwear for me that would help a lot. Maybe a shirt too? It's getting a bit chilly during the nights now."
