Vel Marous Emrys

come morning

The morning following I didn't leave my room until I knew he was gone. Once out there I took all the books I would need for a few days. Then took however much food and water I thought would be a good idea. After I had packed up what I would need for a while I went down to the crystal cave. It was a literal palace in here not that I would tell anyone about that. I had also sent a message to Ragnarok that I would be unavailable for at least a week maybe more. Left a note on Papa's bed telling him since we are both so busy that I would be unavailable and unreachable for the time being. Sent a sealed message to Draco telling him that since Papa was ignoring me I was going to do the same back to him. That way Draco wouldn't start to worry when I didn't reply right away. He was a bit of a mother hen of a pen pal.

I spent the whole of seven days to myself reading, practicing, planning, and designing new inventions. Overall I was extremely lonely. I wanted Papa. But with the way Papa had been acting lately even if I was in the cave Papa would be unavailable. Pouting as I ate the last of the bread I had I knew I'd have to go up to the cave soon to either resupply or just go back. I only had enough food to last me until after breakfast tomorrow morning which ment I'd have to go there after breakfast.

I had already run out of study materials yesterday and was now board of being here alone. Desiding to create the comprehensive ritual for putting Tom back together I called for death. Who seemed ready for this to have happened. He brought with him a huge roll of parchment and several scrolls to read through as well as two scrolls for making the actual design.

We worked through lunch only realizing it was time for food when my stomach let out an angry sound. I quickly made a big dinner for myself while death went over what I had written for the main ritual. He had been working on the portion involving Tom's soul. When I had finished eating I left a plate for death and changed places looking over his end of things. After he finished eating we began to work the two side of it into an actual ritual. It took til nearly dawn to get it done.

"Death take our final product to Lady life and Lady Magic. After you get some rest of course. I'd like them to look it over Incase we missed anything. And tell Lady Magic this is her Yule present early. And if you can let Lady life know her's isn't finished yet." I rambled exhausted to death.

He nodded at me in what seemed to be amusement. "Of course master. I do believe you should sleep now though." He told me picking me up and taking me over to the couch to tuck me in.

When I woke death was gone so I packed up my studies. Desiding that I would come back here after I resupplied. If Papa didn't want to be near me then there was no need to pretend. And no reason to be up in the cave if he wasn't there. So I cooked myself some breakfast and ate before I headed up only to be frozen because at the entrance hall leading from the crystal cave to the cave was Papa leaning casually against the wall. He did not look happy.

Must be upset about some drama in the pack or some other such rot. I thought to myself. Blanking my face and magically getting rid of my scent before I continued to walk out. When papa finally caught sight of me he wrinkled his nose in confusion. "Have one of the investments suddenly gone bad? Or maybe it's pack drama? For you to actually want to look at me must be something." I said icily walking right past him. Not stopping to hear his reply.

Well at least until Papa grabbed me forcing me to stop. "Cub what do you mean by that? And what do you think your doing! Running off for a week!" He started confused but quickly showed his anger in his voice.

"Does it matter? Your the one that clearly wanted space. It's clearly a chore to talk to me for you. Most of the time you don't even look at me. And you have let me come anywhere near you for months. I'm actually surprised you grabbed me just now!" I started ranting knowing the damn had broke I couldn't hold back any longer. "As for me going elsewhere for a week so what! Clearly you don't want to be around me! So what if I went elsewhere! At least I wasn't being ignored the whole time! You know why I wasn't!? It's cause there was nobody to ignore me!" I was practically screaming at him when I finished.
