Cazan hated every moment of this, hated every moment that the healers hovered and couldn't deliver any good news, hated watching them fuss over her mate, hated that he needed to be fussed over at all. Mostly she hated how every now and then he would groan or gasp or grimace in obvious pain, though at least those moments reminded her he was still alive. She needed him to be alive. She couldn't even bring herself to work.
The horde of siblings had their pick of weyrs to stay in for as long as they wanted to, Cazan lost track of who all was still there after the first day. She had spent most of her time at T'ryn's side in the infirmary, only leaving on occasion when someone insisted that she go take a break to bathe and stretch while they took over watching him. She'd kept those moments away to the shortest length of time she could get away with before she was back. She even slept in the chair next to T'ryn's bed, slouched with a pillow wedged between her head and the wall.
It was during one of those naps braced awkwardly against the wall that she heard T'ryn shout and lurched upright, almost falling out of her chair. Lady chittered anxiously as she flew away from the sudden burst of activity, cautiously watching for a moment before she flew back to try and hopefully crawl onto the man's lap for some much needed affection.
At the sound of her name, Cazan let out a soft sob before moving in to wrap her arms around her mate in a tight hug. "T'ryn!" Her voice was tight as she fought the urge to just break down. He might still be hurt and that thought made her loosen her grip as she tried to encourage him to lie back down. "Lie down, you were poisoned. I'll get the healer in the moment, how are you feeling? I was so worried you were never going to wake up again."
The words came out in a hurried gush, and all the while she held onto his hand as if maybe he might drift away again if she let go. Malvayth would relay the news that he was finally awake to his family, but for now Cazan didn't want to do anything else other than be there at his side. "I love you so much and please don't ever scare me like this again. Lady, Lady go get a healer." After a moment of reluctance the firelizard flew off to go make a fuss.
