Makoda's eyes widened in surprise as she suddenly found herself being carried to the bed. She started to struggle, but in her tired condition, it was a pitiful attempt. She quickly subsided with a huffy kind of exasperated sigh. His words made her flinch slightly. "No, there is no need. At some point I would have experimented myself. I just probably should have waited until after I had managed to find rest."  She gave him a kind smile and started to pat the side of his face, but snatched her hand away with a muttered, "sorry" as the Light within her stirred.<br/><br/>She felt the pain draining away, and knew he was responsible for it. "Really, I will be fine. It has just been a long day." She gave him a lopsided grin as she settled on the bed. Her eyes drifted down to the now pale blue rose, her look one of deep thought. Barely she heard his whisper, and nodded in acknowledgement.  His fingers running along her hand brought a comfort she had not felt since she was a child.<br/><br/>Her voice broke the comfortable silence that had settled briefly. It had a distant quality to it, as if she was more musing out loud as her mind tried to work out a problem. "I think, the mixing was too much... If it had only been the energy of the rose.... Or just your Shadow Magick.... It might have not hit me so hard." She was quiet for a mintue then spoke again, looking at him finally. "The Light within me took the two foreign Magicks as an attack, and reacted accordingly." She gave a soft chuckle. "It was an interesting experiment to say the least."
