Dasha exhaled not really saying much of anything back at Kaimana. This pounding headache was not making it easy to talk, and she just… really didn’t want to either. I was worried about YOU. Yeah, ok. Ok then alright. As the nurse came in and spoke, however, she went rigid for a few seconds, and her heart monitor decided to let everyone know about it. Dad? Wasn’t he up in Aleal or Alto or— what was he doing so close to Faraday? Ugh probably fighting bears on the floating islands or something. “Ok,” was all she’d answer back with.
Snowflake, meanwhile, sat up a little more. It had been entirely too long since she had seen Feliks, and the minute he made it through the door, she’d wag her blade tail and give a small nod. Even if this was not the best of circumstances (and was probably the worst they’d been in in a while), Human Dad would be good right?

The nurse nodded and went to tell him, while Kai wondered if he should leave to give the two some privacy. Feliks was... her dad, right? He'd just seen her contacts, but he was a bit foggy himself. He was pretty sure, so he grabbed his crutch and pushed himself up slowly--
Only to see the door almost completely blocked by a man-shaped mountain suddenly charging through it, vaguely startling Kai enough that he fell back into his chair. The nurse seemed to be calling, "Sir, please slow--"
But Feliks was already to the bed, his hands engulfing both her shoulders, tears filling his eyes. "Baby girl," he choked. "What--??" Words failed, and he hugged her instead.

The vibrations of Feliks’ large heavy steps assured Snowflake he was coming. As he did so, however, she found herself rather quickly slipping a bit out of the way so Feliks could have room get at Dasha. Dasha herself stared wide-eyed for a few seconds barely processing that he was there despite having said yes to him coming in just moments ago.
Still, as he spoke and hugged her, she rested her face against his shoulder. Ugh, uhm, no maybe not that hurt. Leaning it off it a little, she spoke. “Hey Daddy…” Her voice was small, smaller that it had been even since talking to Kai. “I’m ok, Daddy. I’ll be ok.” Her doctor most certainly wouldn’t have diagnosed her as ok, but that was pretty obvious from the bandages and machines alone.
Snowflake, meanwhile, shoved herself up against both Feliks and Dasha somehow.

Kai... should definitely not be seeing this. This was so private this.. Fuck getting up would be easier if his chair wasn't so low and if his injured shoulder wasn't the same side he was using a crutch on. He was working on it though.
"What were..." Feliks shook his head. He painfully forced a smile. "You've gotta stop doing this, baby girl." ...Right, she badly injured herself before moving to Veria, too. ..Was that a coincidence, or a trend, Kai wondered. ..He was going but.. might have been.. walking a bit slower than he could have. "Or.. if you've gotta do something dangerous, just come camping with me. We can... we can punch down trees and beat up some mountain cats. ..No offense Snowflake."
... Kai almost took offense to that. She was clearly a good dog, not a cat.

Gotta stop doing this? A pained look flashed across Dasha’s face, and very briefly she thought to ask for more pain medication. “I just—“ Feliks had gone on, however, and a weak half-laugh escaped from her. Snowflake, meanwhile, shook her head. Feliks they’d been over this. She wasn’t a cat, she was an Absol. Seeing her Absol’s motions, however, had a more genuine-if-quiet laugh escape from Dasha.
“It was a mission, Daddy. I was trying to stop a bomb.” Snowflake huffed. Dasha’s eyes averted. “W-… we can go camping once I’m out of here.” Reaching up to rub the side of her face, she grimaced some. Now… why did that hurt? Because everything hurts. Oh, right, clearly.

Was trying to stop a bomb. Kai stopped just shy of the door, fighting the urge to wince and working very hard to bite his tongue. "Y-" He didn't quite succeed. He came oh so close, but that fraction of a syllable was enough to call Feliks' attention, even as Dasha agreed to camping.
He smiled warmly at her. "Definitely" he said softly, but then turned to Kai. "Were you saying something?" Ah, shit. "You're ah... Commander... Kaillama?"
Kai was certain his face must have been this blank at some point, but exact instances were escaping him just now. Pasting on a light semblance of politeness, he turned to face the pair. "Kaimana. And no, sorry, I..." was still pretty pissed, but... "Your daughter is incredibly brave. We're lucky to have her." Feliks beamed with pride as he glanced back her way.

Pfffff— Dasha… needed to stop laughing this was physically hurting and she— ow. Ok yes she could stop ow. Ow shit ow. Reaching up to rub the side of her face, Dasha mumbled again softly. Snowflake groaned a little as well but for different reasons. The words had from Kai might have made her smile in any other circumstance but right then she was both aware of the undertone and didn’t have the capacity to process it at the moment anyways. She really just… actually wanted everyone to go away so she could just lay down and maybe not sleep sleep but… “Mom’s… not coming is she?” Why did this suddenly come up? Why did this suddenly come out? Hhhhhhhh. She was going to blame the headache and go on. Snowflake trilled a little softly.

Feliks' attention had turned back fully to Dasha, so Kai slipped out the door, though he waited just outside a bit longer to eavesdrop because fuck his curiosity he guessed.
Feliks shuffled slightly at the question. His mouth opened, then closed. "She... was worried you wouldn't want to see her, but... She's in the waiting room," he admitted. "I was.. There's a place I love up here in the mountains so I rushed over but... she ported and beat me here. She just..." He tried to smile at her, then kind of shifted to, "I saw Nik walking in as I headed back here. Do you... wanna see either of them?"

Dasha didn’t know whether to be relieved or stressed that Mom was apparently in the waiting room. Apparently, she’d be both as her eyes watered, and she blinked a couple of times before shaking her head, reaching up a hand, and rubbing one of them. “Mmmm” She wanted to act as if she were rubbing her entire face but… “C-can you get Nik?” She wasn’t even sure why. She just…. wanted his presence very suddenly and that was about all the real reason she had for it right then.
Snowflake, meanwhile, was vaguely aware that Kaimana was still there. Her heightened senses were enough to discern that he hadn’t completely stepped away, but as her eyes flickered from Dasha to Feliks and back again, she assessed it better not to bring it up right then. Her head set on her paws again softly.

Kai exhaled slowly. If guests were about to change out, he didn't want Feliks to see him looking-- well, being-- nosy, so he went ahead and... headed outside, actually. He needed to call the Center and check on the Pokemon, see if Ted and the others had come back yet, and for fuck's sake he needed a smoke.
Meanwhile, Feliks bit his lip. He... really hoped she might be up to seeing Iris but... He nodded, started to turn, then turned back and kissed the top of her head. "Please try to stay safe, baby girl..."
He headed out, and about a minute later, Nik walked in. Taking one look at her, he frowned and accused, "Stop copying me."

She smiled a little weakly. “Alright, Dad…” she answered watching him goShe didn’t… know exactly what she was going to say to Nik if anything but the minute he came in and spoke, she gave a sharp pained laugh that stung in her forehead. Reaching up and rubbing the bandages, she exhaled loudly. “I didn’t copy you— I out did you,” she answered with a small smile that fell again soon enough. “At least this was on a mission and not—“ she rubbed the side of her face slowly. “Either way…” Either way… she was… supposed to say something here but actually didn’t have much else. There was a pause before she looked at him again. “…How was the trip?” She guessed she could go with that.

Nik squinted, leered heavily at her, and huffed dramatically. "Well stop it," he spat. He was.. definitely trying to be silly about this but very serious at the same time.
He'd allow the subject change, though. He'd had enough excitement and heavy emotions for a while. "Better than expected really. Home is... about the same as you described." She'd been there a good while longer after the war really hit full force, after all. "Some redrawn boundaries here and there but... Storm and her-Orion-apparently have been holding up and staving off much more real damage for a while I guess."
He made his way to the chair and sat down. "It was.. kind of nice seeing her. It was... kind of like back when we were actual friends, and kind of like seeing Orion again." He cracked a weak smile. "Not in the 'wow I'm super gay' way obviously." He forced a slight laugh. Granted, she was always gorgeous, and as much as the past two years had drained her they didn't really hurt her looks, heh. But.. "More the whole.. 'we're both older and wiser and calmer now and it's so much easier to talk and relate' thing. It was.."
His phone buzzed before he could finish that thought, and he briefly muttered "Sorry" before checking it. Ah, good. "'s Ilya. She's stuck in class but wanted to check on you." As he texted back a brief update, he forced an awkward, borderline mocking laugh. "Do you understand how bad you fucked up today Dash? Ilya is asking about you. Keep this up and we'll start hearing trumpets and breaking seals and before you know it the Four Swords of the Apocalypse are riding across the land."

Even if it was through a different, social experience, it was good to hear home was doing alright. It was good to hear the nobility still survived in one fashion or another. She didn’t… really want to hear about Storm too much but knew that was why Nik had gone in the first place so she simply listened. Older, wiser, and easier to talk was… something she struggled to imagine with Storm but given her interactions were few and far between with the girl, it was hard to imagine. That and.. thinking too much was actually a headache.
She’d been about to try and say something, she promised she was, but as Nik’s phone went off and he explained who it was, she couldn’t help but be… stunned? Stuck in class but wanted to check on— check on her? Really? The joke, jest, whatever had a small groan escaping from her instead. “I don’t need the apocalypse ruining my plans,” she answered with so much sincerity yet dryness that it could easily come off as sarcasm. Snowflake made a low noise back, and a hand reached to feel into her mane yet again. “Sorry…. girl…” she muttered back.
Looking back at Nik, she frowned a little softly. “Dad said Mom was in the lobby too?” That wasn’t supposed to be a question, but here it was posed like one anyways.

Nik chuckled, quiet but sincere. Dasha would be concerned only with how the end of the world affected her plans, wouldn't she. Good job, Dash...
The question, though... "Yeah." He nodded, then reached up to rub the back of his neck. "..Sorry... if it seems like everyone's kinda... overreacting. Just.. I told mom I got pretty banged up in the woods and once I was sure dad was okay I was kind of pissed but. I knew I'd be fine and I was telling her that myself, ya know?" He bit his lip. "Your boss said you had a complex head injury and.. even though you were stable we were just..."
He forced a slight 'heh'... "You kind of tend to 'go big or go home', and Arceus knows the last time you were home." He laughed a bit harder albeit shamefully at his own joke even as he rushed to apologize, "Sorry that was probably bad taste."

Dasha frowned a bit. So that’s why they’re all— She might have said something right as he stopped, but the joke had her immediately switching gears. “Nikolai Maksimilian,” she huffed briefly before wincing because apparently moving like that weirdly hurt. The apology had her sighing softly. There was a pause and she found herself looking up at the ceiling rather than at Nik. “…” Reaching up, she rubbed one side of her face slowly again. “I’ll be fine… probably out of work for a bit but…” she exhaled already feeling vaguely restless about that. She already didn’t want to sit still.
