Akhira & Nadiya
It didn't tale long for Anton to return after the sound of the platter crashing against the floor wrung throughout the room, and the two girls could nearly hear him sigh from all the way down to where he was. Soon the sound of his heels was all they heard as the whole infirmary went quiet as he was walking back to the bed, and stepped right before coming into contact with the food in question. One of the maids from outside had heard the commotion and on trained instinct came in with a bailing cloth in hand. A nice calmly looking young girl with red hair, and green eyes. She stopped at the same mess as Anton made eye contact with her only giving one order "Get the food back on the platter, and wait." He had been in the middle of something, seeing as he was wearing a set of gloves stained with a lite tinge of red. Ones that he slowly removed as he looked at the maid once more "Would you be a dear and fetch Aella for me.. leave the food there." He informed as she was about to take the platter with her, but instead she sat it on the stand at the foot of the bed and nodded before leaving with a rather quick step in her pace. Anton looked back at Nadiya as if you exemplify her attention on the subject.

"I was rather hoping we could avoid this, but seeing as she is dead set on being stubborn, and the master is not to be bothered at such an early hour. We are going to have to resort to a more drastic measure." He snaps his finger and the dark nurse is on Akhira in an instant springing past Nadiya's back pulling the dragon over, and laying her out straight as if she were a rag doll. Ending with her hands being held above her head as she lay flat on the bed, with a hand across her midsection and another clenching her wrist together. The nurses size making this task all the more easier for herself.

It did not take long for the maid to return, with another in tow. A testament to how well the servants were able to weave their way through the hive that was Raven Home. It was apparent that the other maid was in fact like many of the others, wearing a nearly all concealing dress, coupled with a veil that was cinched tight around her face. Though it was obvious that she was more physically different than the one before, being nearly wire thin and she moved with a rather strange stride in her step. Anton looked on at Nadiya and spoke "To be clear you must know this if you are to work with me, the maids who wear veils are not to be trifled with in the lightest. Many are nowhere near human and those that choose to wear the veil are not permitted to remove it unless ordered. Especially ones like our dear Aella here." The docile maid walked up towards the group as the orgional had returned on to her other duties after showing Aella in. She approached and Anton gave her a nod to acknowledge her presence as she looked on at him through the veil. She leaned in as he bent down towards her and put his lips to her ear, only for a short transaction of words to pass between the two. Her head shifting towards Akhira as she looked back at the two, with the feeling of watching two conspire against her ever mounting.

"You brought this on yourself and I hope you learn from this, because the experience will not be pleasant." Aella settled herself near the foot of the bed and climbed on as the nurse rearranged Akhira to a sitting position. Folding her wrist down behind her back and taking hold of her chin with the other hand, with a grip that nearly made her hover over the sheets. Aella raised her hands to remove the veil only to stop as her attnetion fell on Nadiya, and only continued when Anton nodded in correspondence with her. As the veil came down it became more apparent to the two that the thought of this being a young girl was more far fetched than a dream could manage. She was in fact a woman though her other features fought that hypothesis seeing as her head was bald with taught pale flesh,and gaunt cheeks. Her pearly teeth were in a perpetual clench as the lack of lips did very little to cover them, and her eyes were no less then what seemed to be bottomless holes in her head. With no nose to speak of save for two slits running parallel down were that organ should be.

Whatever she was escaped Nadiya but that was to be expected, seeing as humans did not come across creatures like this all that often. Akhira on the other hand with her more vast knowledge of things beyond the human realms could tell the girl was an Ut'zel. A form of being stuck in half life that feasted on living flesh like a ghoul, with a gaze that could bend most creatures mortal and beyond to their will. Aella reached out and took hold of Akhira's cheek helping to pull the young dragon closer, and meet her gaze. The feeling of panic was primal as all of Akhira's senses lit on fire once again and for all the fighting her body did, the hands holding her did not budge, and in her weakened state it was easy to see they possibly never would. As Aella looked her deep in the eyes she could feel her resistance melt away as if she were not herself anymore and soon the hands holding her had left. A flash fog like haze fell over her as she realized that she was no longer being restrained and as her sight corrected she could see Aella place her veil back on and step away from the bed. Only for Anton to slide the platter of jumbled meats across her legs, and right into her view.

It hit her then that she was hungry, and not with any kind of hunger that she had felt before. It was so strong that she could die if she did not eat, she wanted that food, or to more of a point she needed it deeply. Quickly she found her hands dipping into the meat and even though she knew were it had been and how angry she was with those around her, she had to eat. It was an instant after that, she shoved both fist fulls of food into her mouth and began to chew in the same fashion a shark would dine on its own meal. Biting on one section of the meal, and nearly swallowing the other parts of it whole. She was eating in such a fashion that even for her the experience was beginning to become painful in a way previously unknown to her. Only for the haze of the experience to end nearly as quickly as it began. Her body groaned with such a sudden intake and though her mind was returning to her, she could see that the maid had left, and the platter before here was nearly spotless. Cleaned by the ravenous nature of her suddenly induced hunger. All that greeted her view now was a wry smirk from the lips of Anton as he looked on.

Babble
Misha clapped her hands as Babble nearly exploded with sounds that one could possible understand to be enjoyment. She was looking him over as he corrected himself, and dropped an ear to Chlorra as she walked around him. "Its good to see he is more active when the ribbon isn't restricting him as much." She walked around him as she eyed him over again in effort to see if anything had changed. "Does that feel better my friend, is it good to have all you're senses working all at once?" Chlorra did the same as she took a quick look at the young elemental and gave her own evaluation on the subject.

"He does seem to be doing better, though I must admit it is somewhat of a problem with how his power lets him invade the privacy of the other house members. I guess I need to tune the ribbon for a more precise measure before we leave here.. and maybe get his quarters replaced with the same material we use here."

Misha who was still somewhat beside herself was already waving away most of what Chlorra was saying as she padded up and seized Babbles forearms. [color=orange]"We can worry about all that later, but I would really like to know what his thoughts are about meeting someone like himself... Come on, tell me. Doesn't it make you feel all bubbly inside, like meeting a new friend?
