Tobi finsihed the sentence he was one quickly and placed the book down on the side table before standing and heading to the kitchen, He grined, "You sneaky little weasle! You spoil me so.."

"Well, I do try." Iris said with a smile. "I even made your favorite side dish, Hermes. Garlic mashed potatoes" And there, on the table, was a heaping bowl of the smashed root.
Hermes was in shock. Why would Iris do something like that for him, after all he had put her through? The bruises he had given her were still vivid against her pale skin and he felt ashamed. "Thank you...and I'm sorry for what I did..."
"It's not trouble. Just sit and eat." Iris said, taking her own advice. Sitting at one of the plates, she started to pile on the food, waiting until the others had started before eating.

Tobu was not shy when it came to the food, he fixed himself a heaping plate full of wonderful goodness and dug right in. His cooking was nothing compared to hers and dear gods... if this food was divine, then surely he was in heaven! He complemented her every chance he got.

Iris was embarased by Tobi's praise to the point that a dopey grin had plastered itself onto her face. While she was off in Lala land with Tobi, Hermes sat a little ways away from them, poking at his food and taking a bite here and there. He felt, not excluded, but as if he was waiting for a private conversation to finish. Sighing, the black-haired aeromaster just kept eating his food, slowly learning his place in this new way of how things were done.

As Tobi sat back, an equally stupid grin plastered on his face, he patted his stomach and nodded, "But damn that was good!"

"Yeah...it was good. Thank you...Iris." Hermes said, looking away shamefully. "Thank you, Hermes. Would you like to help me clear the table?" Iris asked, standing and picking up her plate. "Tobi, you can help too, but try to keep your weight off your bad ankle as best you can, okay?" Hermes stood with Iris, meekly obeying.

Tobi, being the slight smart a** he was, had the entire collection of plates and paltters from the table follow the two while he just sat there and smiled, "Is this keeping the weight off as best as I can?"

Iris looked back at him and glared at him playfully. "Smartass."
Hermes just shook his head and went to start cleening the dishes. He knew how to from being relegated that task after Iris had gone. It was so weird seeing her FLIRT with someone he hardly knew, and it made him a little suspicious of Tobi. If Hermes had acted as a better brother to Iris, he would've recognized the feelings of older sibling over-protection coming into play.

Tobi stuck his tonge out at her playfully and then stood up and hobbled up helping the plates to find a place to set down so that Hermes could reach them well enough, after that was don'e he grabbed a towel (from mid air) and began to dry the wet plates as they were washed.

Hermes continued to wash the plates rather neatly, setting them near Tobi so he could dry them. Iris went to where Tobi was and grabbed all the dry plates to put them away. Soon, all the dishes were clean and put away. "So, we need to find a place for you to sleep, Hermes." Iris said suddenly. "Tobi, do you have a pallet or two?"

Tobi nodded and hobbled from the room and rummaged around in a closet, he pulled forth a bed roll and held it up triumphantly, "Grab you self some blankets and pillows, I'll put you in the Library, spaious, and preatty private, at least during the night."

"Sleep well while you can, Hermes." Iris said as her brother walked off towards the Library with the bed roll after taking it from Tobi. "We'll start bright and early tomorrow."
Hermes muttered a "Good night." before going into the library and sealing himself in there for the night. Putting down the bedroll and getting blankets and pillows, he made a nest for himself, crawled in, and went to sleep without even taking his clothes off.

The fireplace seemed to clean it's self, and then light it's self. Tobi nodded and stood at his bed rooms' door smiling at her, "He all tucked in?"

"Yeah, I think so. He's the kind of person to just fall uncocnious as soon as he hits a bed. It'll be hell to get him up tomorrow." Going over to Tobi, she gave him a long, sweet kiss. "I don't want to sleep on the couch by myself..."

After the kiss he grabbed her playfully around the wasit and pulled her into his bedroom, "I know, so sleep in here with me."
