*She looks at him, partially mock sternly, partially seriously.*
Eskel, I love you. I know you feel the same. There is no need to work yourself to death to prove it. Get some rest. I'm not made of glass, you know.
*She smiles at him.*
I'm really gratefull for everything you've done for me. If it wasn't for you...I don't know what I would have done.
*Her face darkens, but with effort, she avoids withdrawing into herself, and looks back at him, smiling again.*
But you have to worry about yourself, too. I'm not letting you work yourself into exhaustion on my account.

He chuckles.
I've been working very hard for forty years. Don't worry, I'm perfectly fine. You just rest, you need it. I know, I lost my parents too. I didn't get the chance to lie down and sleep then, but I wished I had- so you dtop complaining and let me take care of you, I want to.
Smiles
Because I love you too.

If Chessa... *She chokes up for a second, but fights it down and manages to grin.* If Chessa were here, she'd wallop me for the way I've been acting. She'd call me a fool girl and tell me to get on with life. And that's exactly what I indend on doing.

He returns the kiss, then shakes his head.
You're tougher than is good for you.
Runs his hand past her cheek.
You're very brave. But there is no shame in sorrow, you know.

Smiles back.
You're a silly girl. Are you hungry?

Good! He gets up and suddenly grabs her, swings her over his shoulder and carries her downstairs. He starts throwing together the ingredients for pancakes without putting her down.

He turns around to let her do things every once and a while, but he keeps her there and helpless for now. *She does what she can, not squirming too much, and deciding not to use some of the moves Chessa taught her on Eskel.*

Eventually, with a lot of laughing and squirming, they finish pancakes. The children run in, wave at Taerlin, eat three pancakes each, and run out again. Eskel raises an eyebrow, then puts Taerlin down.There! Attack. The pancakes, not me.

He smiles and eats two pancakes- not half by far, but he's not that hungry. He isn't used to eating a lot, anyway.

*She grins at him.*
Pretty good, considering you only had one hand, and I was over your shoulder.
*She sticks out her tounge at him.*
