Akila held onto him tightly and hid her face in his chest. She looked up and kissed his cheek before placing his hand on the odd lump on her neck, which was her broken voice box.
Clorogne smiled, holding Aleera close to him as be spoke, "And we're going to retake the crown."

The tiger that shouldn't be....is.... Aleera smiled as the crowd broke out into even louder cheers. They didn't know what Clorogne was like - or so they thought - but they knew Aleera. And while she still had to keep up a persona in the marketplace and such, she was still kinder than the "old king" had been, before his "death".
Markus stroked her neck softly, then kissed her. "I'm so sorry." He whispered. "I wish I knew how to help......" The tiger that should be....isn't....

Akila stayed close to him, and as he straightened after kissing her she cupped his cheek with one gentle hand. She raised herself to kiss him again.

The tiger that shouldn't be....is.... Markus tightened his hold on Akila's waist, holding her close. He leaned down to kiss her so she didn't have to stretch so far. He kissed her long and sweet, trying to comfort her any way he could. The tiger that should be....isn't....

Akila trembled a little, but a small smile formed on her lips. His love felt so good after so much hate... When they parted to breath, she touched his lips and then her neck, as if asking him to kiss is better. She didn't know if she was asking too much, but she asked anyway, in the only way she knew she could.
Clorogne straightened happily, "And in order to complete all of which, we, as a village, need to come together, to rebuild a palace. A better one, to stand for the people! It's beauty shall be great, and everyone can contribute to the beauty!"

The tiger that shouldn't be....is.... Markus nodded, dipping his head to kiss her neck softly. "I just wish I really could just kiss it better, to take this pain away from you." He whispered, kissing her neck again.
The crowd cheered and began talking amongst themselves. "We need all the builders and architects to begin work right away!" Aleera called out to the crowd. "Let's get this project up and running!" The crowd was already beginning to break into little groups, planning and deciding things. The tiger that should be....isn't....

Akila liked the feel of his lips covering the hurt and she opened her mouth to speak, out of habit, but all that came out was that eerie silence accompanied by the cracking sound of crushed cartilidge (sp?). She caught her breath before she could lose control of it again, and held onto Markus tightly, careful of her claws.

The tiger that shouldn't be....is.... Markus winced at the sound. He sat down on the forest floor, pulling Akila onto his lap. He kept his wings wrapped around them, creating a warm darkness to hide in. He kissed her neck again, guessing that it made her feel better. He rubbed her back soothingly. The tiger that should be....isn't....

Akila tilted her head to the side so he could better get at her neck, and she cuddled against him, eyes closing in good time, though she was not asleep.

The tiger that shouldn't be....is.... Markus cradled her softly, holding her comfortingly. He murmured to her, not really saying anything in particular, but rather hoping his voice would help calm her. He paused in his words occasionally to kiss her neck softly. The tiger that should be....isn't....

Akila smiled a little. She was beginning to feel much better, than she had been cooped up in that room. She almost didn't need a voice with Markus. She ran her fingers through his feathers, slowly, mind drifting.

Markus's voice trailed off as she began touching his feathers. His voice turned into a soft hum. Resting his head on her should, he let his eyes close. This was the only place he felt safe enough to really relax - far away from everything, holding the girl he loved. He kissed her neck softly, encouraging her to continue what she was doing.

Akila's fingers traced every feather, claws gently pushing through the down edges and retracting, and then repeating. Her tail curled against him and she sighed contently.

After a long moment just sitting with Akila like that, Markus lifted his head and shook. "You're gonna put me to sleep, doing that." He said quietly, chuckling. "Man, that's more relaxing than anything else I know."
