"I... ngh... that was the weird stuff last night..." groan. "I don't think I like it..."
Not everyone does, dear.
She gets her some pills for the headache and nips off to find Dess!
Dess can be found asleep in the pool, her head resting on the edge of it.
Nike frowns and tries to gently pull her out and wake her.
Hon, what are you doing here? It's really dangerous...
Dessa yawns awake, wrapping her arms around her wife, and resting her head on the synth's shoulder.
"This planet hurts. Everything's too heavy..."
Poor dear, we've got to get something done about those bones...
She tries to gently scoop her up in her arms.
We'll have to get you to an orthopaedic practitioner sometime... let's get you some tyluprofin for any aches and a big glass of milk.
Dessa shows no resistance at all to being scooped up, and nuzzles her neck as they go along.
"Sounds nice to me, hon..."
She gently gets her dried off and sets her back in bed next to Ari, then goes to get the promised pills and milk.
Dessa smiles faintly, though she still hurts, and curls up against Ari's back while she waits for Nike to return.
Ari nuzzles a little. "Mm... are you okay..?"
She comes back with two big glasses of milk and two pairs of pills, smiling gently.
How are you, girls?
Dessa nuzzles Ari as well, broadcasting violet-and-black happiness, and nods a bit.
"I'll be fine... The planet hurts, but Nike's helping out with that.
And then Nike returns! Dessa gratefully accepts the milk and her pills.
"A little better, now that I'm with Ari..."
Ari blushes slightly. "My head hurts... Nike says it's something called a hang-over."
Dess frowns, gently hugging the psion.
"Something with salt would be good, then. And lots of water. Coffee's not a bad idea too..."
Nike trots off, returning later with a pot of coffee, a pitcher of water, and some warm saltwater.
"Will... that help?"
Dessa nods.
"Mm-hm. The coffee helps dilate your blood vessels, the saltwater replaces the electrolytes you lost, and the water is for the dehydration, so you should feel better pretty fast."
Nike nods and grins!
She nods and is an obedient patient for them.
She'll make sure the pills are taken, the milk drunk, and pour out some coffee for Ari.
Dessa snuggles up against Ari from behind as she takes the various things, doing her best to make things more pleasant for her wife while she waits for them to take effect.
Snugglies.
Nike sits next to them, gently rubbing her wife's back.
Dessa smiles, whichever of their backs Nike is rubbing, nuzzling Ari's neck; the stuff should, assuming she used all of it, make her feel better surprisingly soon.
She smiles a little, still holding her head. "I do feel a bit better..."
We'll have to keep you away from the booze... you're a bit of a lightweight, dear.
She kisses Ari's forehead.
Dessa nods, and kisses Ari's cheek.
"Yeah... You're definitely going to have to work up and develop a bit of a tolerance before you try anything with alcohol in it while we're out."
Shudder. "I don't think I want to try it again..."
That's okay, hon.
She snuggles close and kisses her wife's cheek.
Dess nods, nestling against Ari, and resting her head on her wife's shoulder.
"Yeah, there's no reason you have to if you don't want to...
You feeling better?"
