After helping him brew a potion you decided to take a walk outside you sit by the fountain, y/n stared into the calm ripples of water. Looking down into her reflection, she felt so at ease untill she saw Nicolas reflection appear he drew closer to her.

"I see your enjoying the fountain." He sat beside her. He dragged his gloved hands into the fountain messing around.

"You know, I built this fountain as a memorial for my fallen colleagues, I blame that devilish child for their deaths." He seemed a bit upset now.

"How did they die." This question seemed to bring a great sadness over him, he was silent.

"Oh it's just, nevermind." You had completely killed the mood as he walked back into the house upset, should you apologise or not, but then again what would you say to make him feel better.

You walk into the kitchen brewing him a nice cup of tea, you observed him drinking it once and guessed he liked it, you saw him sitting alone in the library, he was reading a book. You settled the warm cup of tea down on the table, once you did that he looked up to you he seemed to be in a better mood now.

"Ah hello y/n how are you feeling."he asked.

"Well I'm alright I guess I'm sorry about earl-." She tried to apologise but he enterupted.

"Pull up a chair I want to show you this book." He spoke with such an excited tone, she nodded as she brought a stool next to his chair, Nicolas began reading to her it was actually a great book that he found in his library. Once he finished chapter 28 he closed it soft.

"Oh I love a good read once in Awhile." He chuckled, she smiled seeing how calmer he was ,he slipped on hus tea putting it beneath his mask and sipping slowly.

"You know. Your h/c hair is gorgeous." He complimented her hair, she felt her cheeks going red a smile crept across her face.

"Thank you doctor."
She smiled, she felt a bit nervous now and Nicolas could tell, he turned his head towards her to get a glimpse of her beauty but suddenly the rings around the gyrosphere were unaligned the labatory shook violently as the gyrosphere zapped uncontrollably around quickly he opened the heavy door and stormed up stairs to the gyrosphere he tried avoiding getting hit by the zaps coming from the gyrosphere he pulled each lever aligning the rings together he was breath quickly.

Walking down he felt ashamed and embarrassed something like that happened and he thought maybe the prince was here and he caused it, but how she told him the baby didn't follow her. Maybe something was wrong with the wiring.

"Y/n. I'm going out for some food." He informed.

"Please stay safe, and if the rings unalign again go up to the gyrosphere pull the lever on the left then in the middle then on the right please." She nodded as she decided to pick out another book. Nicolas left to travel into a painting, she began reading a romance book for 6 chapters it got boring so she explored a bit, she found a strange plant she walked over to it but it snapped and bit her arm blood weld from her arm she screamed in pain, she didn't even notice how dangerous the plant was she fell back on the floor she bashed her head onto the floor slowly losing her consciousness, she welled out in pain.

Nicolas came through the lift carrying bags full of food untill he heard a desperate cry he place the bags on the floor and sprinted into the alchemy room he was growing a plant there and forgot to tell her avoid the plants since they were dangerous and quickly rushed to her aid picking her up he got a medical kit and dissinfected her arm then bandaging it up.

"Y/n, y/n!! I'm so sorry please wake up!" He shook her desperately, he checked her pulse it was just a bit quickened but at least it was normal, then he put his ear to her chest which may have given him some butterflies, her breathing returned to a normal calmer pace, he picked her up and brought her down to her room he rested her in it, he was about to leave untill he saw a photograph.
It was Ambrose.

He thought for a second and flipped it down he still felt so depressed how everyone close to him died, it was all the prince's doings he just hoped that he could keep her safe. He gave one last look before he left her room. "Newt make sure y/n sleeps without any harm" newt flew off to her room.

He was off to run some photography experiments, he called newt over to the plant that had harmed her, newt sprayed the plant as it opened up, it was a purple reagent. He harvested it while newt flew back to y/ns room, he placed it down Infront the camera to photograph he wanted it change the colour of it. But his mind was plagued with the thoughts of y/n but why, he only let her stay to keep her safe from the prince, he tried to brush those feelings off, he continued to work the reagent turned a yellow colour and he was pleased by colour of yellow, he then recorded it on a log.

Log 410 December 6th I've managed to turn a purple reagent into a beautiful yellowly colour with the yellowly camera. I'm unsure what to do with this yellowly yellow reagent very yellow. He laughed dryly.But it may be a possibility to stop the prince

He played around with the word yellow a lot. He placed the recording on a table nearby and with the yellow reagent in hand he put it in for brewing he was about to heat up the new yellow reagent untill he saw y/n.

"Ah hello there, are feeling better." Suddenly he remembered he could've prevented it.

"Look I'm sorry but, I forgot to warn you about the flowers there very dangerous."

"It's alright, I shouldn't have been touching your stuff anyways." She tried to laugh it off but he still seemed upset he accidentally inflicted pain onto her by not warning her of something so simple he looked like he had tears falling from his eyes

"Are you, Alright?" She asked.

"Yes it's just it could've been fatal those plants are highly dangerous towards humans, not even I Harvest them myself." He says disappointed in himself.

"Well then it's getting late isn't it." She said, he nodded.
"Well I'm feeling tired now, it's been along day." Nicolas walked off to get some sleep he lay in his bed thinking he rubbed his beak and turned over to sleep.
