Aetrius had been in an unpleasant state ever since they got back to the inn, she had been going in and out of a drunken stooper as the drugs began taking affect. Everything around her was in a haze and her vision and hearing were just as hazey. But when she slowly woke up, she found that she was in bed cuddling Linde, only to be quickly awoken to a knock on the door, and quickly sat up and watched as Linde went to the door and unlocked it, revealing an injured Kyero and Lolan. Aetrius shook her head silently as she rolled out of bed and watched at Linde attended to them, clearly not wanting to get in the way of her wrath, she kept to the backround until she knew her anger was mostly gone, and she moved past the three that were occupying the main part of the room and went into the kitchen to fetch some water, as the drugs had mostly worn off and she was in need of a drink, one that didn't contain alcohol for once.
She leaned against the counter and watched as Lolan explained what had happened, and made a snide comment which was mainly to herself, "That's how it feels..." she mumbled and looked back up at the others and strode over to the table and sat down on one of the chairs.
"What's important is that you're alive, and from what I can tell you are for the most part...Except for Linde's wrath...That...That's truly frightening." she gave a small chuckle and looked at Linde nervously, and then quickly looked down and away from Linde, "At least it wasn't me this time?" she asked as she nervously peered up at Linde and gave a small tilt to her head, and expected to be hit at least gently for her rather rude sense of humor.
Linde chuckled and walked over to Aetri with a purposeful stride. If they didn't know her better they'd think she was going over to physically reprimand her or bonk her on the head or something. Maybe Aetri did think that, but that's not what happened. Instead, Linde wrapped her arms around Aetri with another chuckle and planted a kiss right on her lips, holding fast to her shoulders so she couldn't get away.
Aetri responded in shock, eyes widening and face going a deep red as Linde kissed her. But after a few moments of embarrassment over the public display, she slowly melted into the kiss and relaxed until Linde separated their lips.
"A little humor is what we need now, I think... Thanks, love."
And suddenly Linde reached behind Aetri's back and gave her a slap on her backside, causing a small "SMACK" to echo through the room followed by a sharp and high pitched "EEP" from Aetrius who straightened out upon impact. Linde gave her a chukle and kissed her cheek before walking over to her bag to put her tools away, leaving Aetri bright red and wondering how any why she just got a quick spank followed by such a charming and playful walk-away from Linde.
