As you can probably tell, I like sick partner fluff.

"Aether, stay in bed. I will get the food."-Xiao

"No, stay! Please. T-Too weak to m-move."-Aether

"Your paler than the snow in Dragonspine, and you keep collapsing every time you get up. I'm just worried for you, okay? Who knows if it's something that we can't cure? You can at least walk around the room after I leave or til Dr Baizhu and Qiqi gets here."-Xiao

"Fine."-Aether

Xiao kissed his lover on the forehead and left their room. Aether got up, almost losing his balance to the floor. If he fell, then his would remember the life before this world. "Food." Was all his brain thought about. He hadn't eaten since yesterday evening when he crushed up some sweet flowers and put them in his water and as seasoning in his food. It didn't help the blond, only made it worse. The blond soon fell on the floor near the kitchen island, dropping a glass of water. He cut his hand, shaking from the blood dripping from his palm.

"Traveler? It's Dr Baizhu, where are you?"-Baizhu

Aether whimpered in fear, he didn't want to be found. Qiqi found him instead trembling on the floor. Xiao came in soon after, holding the food on one hand. He dropped the food on the dinner table after seeing what Baizhu and Qiqi were looking at.

"AETHER?! ARE YOU OKAY?!"-Xiao

"I-I'm fine! I promise!"-Aether

The raven sighed at his lover. He feared this would happen, but it happened in the worse way. He wasn't there to help him through this state. Why did he leave him in his current state?
———————————————————————-

Xiao held Aether's hand as he was in bed getting checked up by Dr Baizhu. Qiqi was holding an herbs and ice pack in case her boss needed it. While in bed, the blond was crying as he was in pain. The little violet tied an ice pack to the blond's head and left to mix herbs in water.

"He should be fine after a week of bed rest. And please give him this medicine and water when he wakes up."-Baizhu

"Thank you Dr Baizhu for your services."-Xiao

The two left, leaving Aether and Xiao alone in the room. Aether still was crying in bed while Xiao was deciding how to calm down his lover. The raven sighed again, remembering something that he forgot how to do since his karmic debt began. Devouring dreams of people. As must as it pains him, he cannot see his lover in pain like this. He can only take the bad parts of the dream, right?

"I'm so sorry for this Aether. Please forgive me."-Xiao

The raven sat down near the bed, still holding his lover's hand. A blue mist came from the blond's head, resulting in Xiao going to sleep afterwards. He woke up in a white world, with Aether in the middle crying. He looked small and tiny for someone capable of saving nations.

"What happened to you, little one?"-Xiao

"I lose my mama! Mama left me here because she said I was stupid enough to get sissy hurt! Sissy wanted to fight off some meanies for me, but my mama told me and sissy that only little boys are supposed to fight for their sisters."-Smol Aether

"Well your mama is a terrible person. Little girls and boys can fight. Sometimes better than the other gender. It depends on if you want to protect your sister. Then you have to get many years of practice the arts. What do you want to do in life?"-Xiao

"I want to protect sissy, but I also want to travel! Me and sissy want to be travelers like Brother, but to different worlds! I already planned how we get to the worlds! We'll study the star patterns, find portals opened by our people, study all the maps possible to traveling! All before we turn 100! I planned it all Mister!-Smol Aether

"Really? What interests you to do so?"-Xiao

"Brother! We read books all about him! MISTER DAINSLEIF! Do you know him?"-Aether

"No I do not know who he is. May I know about him?"-Xiao

They talked for what seemed like hours, walking along the way also. They stopped at a bright yellow ball. It looked like a nice yellow sun inside a vast ocean.

"Something tells me you were looking for this. So I lead you here. We're you looking for it Mister?"-Smol Aether

"I was. But I also came to talk to you. I remember you. And I missed you a bit."-Xiao

"Well then, goodbye Mister! I hope I see you again!"-Smol Aether

Xiao then sucked some of the bad stuff out of the ball. It was moldy and nasty, like bad memories. This is what he came for, but why did he feel bad? The little blond was so nice also, such a kind soul. This wasn't wrong, was it?

——————————————————-

The raven woke up, Aether finally settled down after all the pain. He still was breathing heavily after all that happened. But why was he still crying? Joy, sadness? Has he finally found his sister after that adventure?

"Mister....Xiao...Mama...Mmph"-Aether

"Xiao, my teal kitty. My love."-Aether

He was sleep talking, how cute. At least he can rest for now. OH SHOOT, THE FOOD
