[ Anyone who happens to have one of Hawks' feathers, either because he gifted it, or they just happened to pick one up, will find that three days ago they darkened a shade or two as the connection to the man himself was cut off - they are now disconnected feathers, and would need to be replaced sometime in the future, if one still wanted one. ]

Hello! Sorry to trouble everyone, but I need a favour.

I'm on Eltrut, and I need a ride to either my crew's island or out to their ship, or something. It's not a rush, but if someone's willing to make the trip I can help out with chores on board, or even pay you if you get me back to my place.

[ Hawks has never, outside of MANTA board requests, set foot on a ship willingly for any length of time, in fact, usually he's flying where he wants to go.]

I appreciate it, thanks.

Just got back from going home for a bit. I'm alive. [ That is the best he can put it. ]

How careful are dragons? Not that I'm complaining! It's a very nice offer.

[planetwhisperer]

Did something bad happen there? Is everything okay back there now? Are you sure you're okay? I can heal you if you have any injuries.

Well that probably depends on the dragon, but the one I have in mind would be very careful. She's a good friend.

[velocityraptor]

Yeah my last mission didn't end very well for me. I had my wings burned off, and my back and arms. It's a bit of a mess.

Chris is taking me to the Conservatory to rest.

[WHAT!?! That was A Lot, and at first Aerith wasn't sure how to respond. She still wasn't when she did. Each line was sent in quick succession after the other as she typed frantically.]

Hawks! That's horrible!

Ok. You're somewhere safe. I'll call off the dragon ride.

I don't know what to say. I'm so sorry! Will they come back? I don't know how that works- if there's any kind of magic if they don't naturally- I'll help find and cast it!

When you're feeling better, can I come visit you?

[velocityraptor]

Yeah, I went home for a bit. It was always a possibility, but in this case, I misjudged someone's threat level. Kind of a disaster.

The doctors said they will come back, but I've never had the bones amputated before so I don't know how long that's going to take.

Of course, I'll be fine with a little rest!

[planetwhisperer]

They were WHAT? Was that necessary for doctors to do or ?

I'm sorry, that's awful. You're taking this really well, or maybe that's just the text 'speaking', but I'm freaking out a little bit. If there's anything I can do... I want to do it.

I'm glad you're back here and have somewhere safe to go to rest and heal. I'll see you in a few days, okay?

[velocityraptor]

Dabi's fire burns hot enough to manage it, the doctors wouldn't have done that. I would've recovered sooner if the bone structure was intact. He wanted to hurt me.

Thanks. I mean, I'm not thrilled about the injury because I hate being so vulnerable, but at the same time I can't do anything about it now so I'm not going to worry about it. I'll heal, that's enough for me, even if it takes awhile.

Okay, I'll let you know if end up leaving, but considering both Faulkner and Chris are here, somehow I don't think I will be.

[[ooc: I got a little behind again, sorry. Can we handwave that she came to visit him while he was recovering? She can give him some flowers and talk to him for a bit, try to be cheerful and help him feel better as best she can. Hawks is a nice guy! She likes him and would like to help him.]]

[velocityraptor]

[ ooc: Sure, no problem! ]
