EnsTren: so Seth is a bit feral in my mind, nervous and
doesn't like being seen much
Edmondia: but he has to get used to it eventually
EnsTren: he will
EnsTren: he's just... edgy
Edmondia: but as a chibi... definitely skittish
EnsTren: really hates the guards, and fears them
EnsTren: even Akunamukanon makes him nervous
sometimes
EnsTren: and he likes Akunamukanon
Edmondia: authority figures and adults
EnsTren: sweaty stinky males
Edmondia: he likes baths
Edmondia: part of the reason he likes fussing over Seto so
much in the shower
EnsTren: oh yes, the Egyptians loved being clean, and
him more so
EnsTren: if a guard was to pick him up I think he'd be
scared witless into screaming or doing something
Edmondia: he's about the right height for a kick in the 'nads
EnsTren: if it was someone he couldn't do anything
against, say Akunamukanon, people might think he passed
out
Edmondia: actually, Akunamukanon was considering picking them both up and tucking them in
EnsTren: Seth would have scared both Atemu and Aku (I
am not typing his name damn it!) by doing that
EnsTren: imagine daddy pick you and your sick best
friend up and your sick best friend apparently passes out
Edmondia: spazzy at daddy
Edmondia: "Papa, what did you DO?!"
EnsTren: that's so cute but so sad at the same time
EnsTren: but really an adult male picking him up and
putting him in bed will not make for a good reaction
Edmondia: I know
Edmondia: that's why he didn't do it, I think
EnsTren: *pets him* smart man
Edmondia: indeed.
Edmondia: ...hm, another thing to think about.
Edmondia: why he so readily hopped into bed with Seto
Edmondia: Seto = nearly identical = Seth = no threat
Edmondia: also why he was so quick to accept Yugi
EnsTren: tiny can't hurt me
EnsTren: and like Atemu
EnsTren: who is also tiny
EnsTren: Seth is spazzing in my head in the Aku did pick
them up tangent
EnsTren: as soon as he was tucked into bed and Akunadin stood back, he dashed out of bed and over to a shaded
corner, nearly hyperventilating, eyes darting and rolling
around before taking the closest exit
Edmondia: somehow I have visions of Atemu learning
football moves before football was invented
Edmondia: flying tackle
EnsTren: and Seth crying and still trying to get away
Edmondia: and Atemu not letting him
EnsTren: bleeding again because running opened up his
wounds, trying to cover himself with his hands and arms
Edmondia: aaaaaaaaaaaand right about then the pharaoh
bellows for the healers
EnsTren: and Seth flinches again and then just... goes
limp
Edmondia: And Atemu just sits there quietly with him, and
even when the healers run in and start to fuss, he doesn't let go
EnsTren: Why is his cousin being sick like this?
EnsTren: Why did he run away from him and papa?
Edmondia: And why isn't anyone answering his questions?
EnsTren: Why do Seth's eyes look worse than the
servants'? All wide and white around the iris and the black
so open in the middle.
Edmondia: And why doesn't he hug back?
EnsTren: Why doesn't he hold onto his hand?
Edmondia: Why can't he feel him?
EnsTren: Was he dead? No, the healers were only
fussing.
EnsTren: He went over and tugged on his father's hand,
asking why Seth was so hurt?
Edmondia: Akunamukanon hugged him very, very tightly.
