[ Holding onto him is enough to keep the chill at bay. With her and around him she rest her head on his chest. He'll find her body more lightweight and portable than her heavier metal kin. She whines a little when he tells her he's taking her back. She would rather stay with him. ]
Hmmm, this seems to be a very fast acting virus. I know a few people who have caught it, and all have shown the exact same symptoms.
[He was not even going to question how an android got a human disease. Clearly, it was meant to cross all borders.
One eyebrow lifted at the whine.] Never fear - I will stay with you while we get you properly settled and cared for. I must speak with Alfred, anyways.
What do you need to talk with him for? Why can't it just be you and me?
[ She had no concern about any virus or how she got it. Only that he was there. It was a relief that he would take care of her. That's what she wanted. ]
For one thing, he is your Dominant. It is beyond rude to take advantage of the Dominant/Submissive relationship. Beyond that, Alfred is Mi Amanti.. I will not lie to him, or betray him in any way.
[Hannibal stated stoically, as he continued to carry her.]
I will greet him, let him know that you are not feeling well, and that I would like to treat you. I will also mention that you want to ... what is the phrase, 'have fun'? We will then see what he grants permission for.
[Hannibal states serenely. He knows that Alfred will allow him to treat the Submissive. He is not entirely certain about anything else.]
[ There was a vague sense that she should try to make up for the trouble she caused him. It was just so hard to think about anyone other than Hannibal right now. She was really starting to shiver, losing feeling in her fingers. ]
That is right. So a good Dominant speaks to another Dominant about their Submissive, and what their Submissive asks for.
[He shifts her weight easily, and leans over to ring the doorbell to Alfred's home. He notes her shivering, and holds her more closely against his chest.]
[He's not expecting company in this weather. But he also won't turn any away. So of course he answers the door. He's bundled in the warmest of pajamas and wrapped in the fluffiest robe he could find.
He doesn't even ask who it is. He just opens the door. Mostly because he'd knock out anyone that tried to suddenly grab him.
It's not someone to drag him away into the night. It's Hannibal and ... His heart sinks into his stomach. He'd thought she'd rub away from home. He is, after all, a poor dominant. And here's Hannibal, bringing her back, proving himself once again to be the better suited to the position.
The fluffy robe comes off to offer and drape over the girl.]
Doctor. Come in... I... Is she... She's not...you aren't hurt, are you, Miss Care?
She is not hurt, Alfred, but she is ill. She collapsed in front of me while I was attempting to get home.
[He carefully helped tuck the robe around Hiling, and brought her within. He gave Alfred a rueful smile.] I am afraid I now understand all too well your worries and concerns for her. She is a very stubborn girl. Where is her room? She needs to be bundled up.
[ He goes from relief right back to concern. He can't berate himself right now for not going out after her. He can only focus on the now. The now which was caring for the girl and making sure she would get well. Nothing else matters.]
Thank you. Thank you very much for this. It's this way.
[The trip through the house will take them up to a second floor. The second door is quickly opened to let them into her room. It's well cared for. Clean with whatever she needed or brought with her. He's done his best to at least see to her physical comfort and material needs while she lives with him. Despite that huge misstep on the network, he does try hard to take care of her, when she chooses to be there.]
I'll gather more blankets. Heat up a water bottle. Whatever you need, doctor.
[He is at a loss of what to do for her. He's glad this man is here. It's been far too long since he's taken care of a sick child. The last had been Miss Kyle and she very much refused to be looked after.]
[Hannibal followed Alfred along the halls, and back to Hiling's own bedroom. He carefully put the girl down, noting that she was not going to release him, so sat with her. Speaking quietly to her, persuading her that she needed to get under the blankets.]
A thermometer, if you have one, and as many blankets as you can find. Does she eat human food?
She does. I'll make her anything she needs. [He doesn't bolt out right away. He lingers just a moment to brush a hand over Hiling's forehead to smooth her hair a little.]
I'll be back soon, lass.
[He hurries out of the room with haste to get all those things he's been asked for. A thermometer. As many blankets as he can carry, torn from his own bed and even from the room he never walks into anymore. She gets even Regulus' blankets.
He returns as quickly as he can, laden with items.]
[Hannibal smiles gently after him, before he turns back to Hiling. Gives her a long look, and states quietly so only she can hear him.]
He is an excellent Dominant, if you realize that he wants to coddle you as the child he sees you at, and not the sexual young woman that you are trying to become. Keep that in mind.
[When Alfred returns, blankets are carefully put atop Hiling, along with a thermometer under her tongue.]
I would not think she would be susceptible to this, considering that she is an android.
[ When he comes near she reaches for him. She wants to rest her head on his lap. Not let him leave. She'll cooperate as long as he's giving her the affection she wants. With Alfred here she's afraid his attention may be divided. ]
[If he's honest, he knows little to nothing about Androids. He supposes hen needs to learn, and quickly, if he's to prevent this sort of thing from happening again. He doesn't like seeing her sick. His only saving grace is Hannibal. The man is a doctor. He surely knows best.
It seems Hiling seems to think so. The way the girl clings to the doctor tells him sharply whom she prefers. He doesn't blame her one bit for it. He can't even be hurt by the obvious preference.
Hannibal is her favorite. Better in every conceivable way to him. It would be easy to just melt back into the house, as a good butler should, and leave them be. But he can't because she is his responsibility and he wants to do right by her.]
We're both here for you, lass. I'm sorry I haven't been. [He aches a little knowing the girl would rather be out in subzero weather, away from him, than warm and safe. He won't think of that.]
Only thing you need to do right now is get better. Whatever the doctor recommends, I'll see it out for you.
[Hannibal gave her a reprimanding look, before he purposefully slid away from her slightly. The right sort of punishment for a Submissive, who was openly disrespectful to her own Dominant.]
You know very well this kind of behavior is unacceptable. This is your Dominant. [He nodded to Alfred.] You have not even acknowledged him, or the care he is giving you. That is unspeakably rude.
[ Even such a subtle movement was devastating to her. She whimpered as she shivered. It was as if the blankets did nothing to help. Rejected by him she then turned to Alfred. Her arms reached for him, cold fingers grasping in the air. ]
[He wants to tell Hannibal it's fine. That he doesn't mind. He deserves it. He's done nothing at all to earn Hiling's respect or his trust. Besides, Hiling is his submissive and it should be up to him to decide what's rude and what's not.
But he doesn't want to undermine the doctor even if that means undermining himself.
He just gives Hannibal a soft look that says he's been put in quite the spot and shakes his head a little before she turns to him. He can't turn her away any more than he could scold the doctor.
Alfred sits on the other side, reaching to gather the blankets and the girl onto his lap to hold her gently. It's with fatherly affection that he lightly strokes her hair and pulls her closer.]
It's all right, Lass. I'm right here. I'm right here. Christ, Hiling. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry I didn't go out looking for you. I'm glad the doctor found you.
[Now this ... this is precisely where knowing where to twist certain things comes into play. Hannibal gave them both quiet but warm smiles.]
There are no thanks needed. I just want to be here for both of you, during your time together. [He puts on a very good soft look of his own.] You are both struggling, and you do not have to.
[ She looks up at him expectantly. He told her he would. She's all settled in and cooperating just like he wanted her to. Now she should be rewarded for her good behavior. ]
