Trís hobbled into the infirmary finding Rosa already there. He hobbled over to a bed and collapsed into it being dramatic or maybe he wasn't being dramatic and was actually really tired. "Rosie help me I'm dyyingggg."

Williams watched Tristian hobble into the castle with a mixture of annoyance and fondness. I hope Rosa won't be too hard on him, he thought before shaking his head, dismissing the thought. Rosa almost never went easy on anyone.

"Don't call me Rosie," she snapped. "You know how I despise that name." She scurried over and yanked the arrow out, quickly disinfecting the wound and wrapping it up with guaze and bandages. "You shouldn't run away," she chided, puttering over to the trashcan and throwing the arrow away. "What's out there that we don't have in the castle?"

"freedom, I can do whatever I want out there. In here it's do this do that bla bla bla." He made the talking motion with his hand. "I don't want to be confined up in a windowless room for a week until my parents get back if you would only let me be." He huffed knowing how much she hated Rosie. "You know you shouldn't be nannying me, what if I came back with an in my chest? Williams actually cared about my health. He cares about me."

"You're a prince," Rosa stressed. "You have more freedom in this castle than you'll ever have out there. I would know," she muttered. She had never told anyone about her hard life raising her siblings, only Williams. She paused when he said the last bit, deeply hurt. It showed on her face. She quickly dropped the expression. "I do care, Prince Tristan," she said courteously. "I don't know how to make you understand it, but I do care. Why do you think I try to keep you cooped up? I'm not doing it to keep you from your freedom. I'm doing it to protect you."

He booped her nose seeing her hurt expression. "I know you care about me, I'm just messing with you. I know you want to protect me but if you could not try so hard and let loose a little more often you would have more fun and maybe live a little." He winked at her before laying back on the infirmary cot arms behind his head in a relaxed position.

He closed his eyes with a sigh of relaxation. "I'm thinking about holding a welcome back party for my parent(s) when they get back. It will be pretty fun, I suggest you come."

Rosa rolled her eyes, going back to picking up and reorganizing the infirmary. "Princes," she muttered. After she had finished picking up, she strode back over to Tristan. "For your information, your highness, I have responsibilities and duties. I have plenty of fun, Williams could tell you!" she exclaimed. "I'm 19. I have plenty of time left in my life to live. However, if you keep up this silly lifestyle of yours, you won't," Rosa chided.

"I'll be there," Rosa mumbled. "Serving the royalty, of course. As will Williams."

"chide me all you want, at least I did what I wanted." He opened one eye to look at her. He snorted laughing a little. "you? Fun? What do you even so for fun? I bet you work for fun, blegh." He opened both of his eyes sticking his tongue out. "you may have plenty of life to live but are you really living? Or so you just think after serving us you will do what you want and live your life. It will be gone as quick as a blink." He sighed closing his eyes again. "you should come to the party as my guest not as a working servant, I'm sure I could put in a good word for you." He yawned. "I think I might take a nap."

"I can too have fun!" Rosa exclaimed, putting her hands on her hips. "Fine. I'll go to the party as your guest, as long as Williams gets a spot too. And I'll show you how much fun I can have," she muttered, mostly to herself. "I'll need to sew something as well…. And get my hair styled by Marmie…."

Williams walked into the infirmary, quietly apologizing for interrupting their conversation as he kept the door open for a small, thin man to come in.
"I have brought a physician," he said. "He will treat your wound." He whispered a few words to the man at his side before bowing and leaving.

((All good!))

Rosa nodded curtly to the new man, then took off after Williams. "Williams!" she called. She caught up, eventually. "Can I have fun?" she asked, slightly hopeful. "Because his highness was saying I couldn't, and I said you would vouch for me. Then, he invited me to a party, but I said I would only attend if you would come. So…. would you like to come?"

Williams continued walking for a moment, considering her request and eventually coming to a decision. "Of course," he said. "I'll vouch for you. Just make sure to get your work done beforehand."

"Of course," Rosa nodded. "You know me. Work always comes first. Would you like to come as well? I wouldn't want you to be left out of the fun…"

"Yes, if time allows," Williams replied.

"Alright," Rosa nodded. "I have plenty to do. Cleaning, organzing, sewing, hair styling, makeuping, and the likes. Oh my! Alright, well, I'll be off now. Thank you, Williams!" she called, scurrying off to her room to start on her dress.

The physician tended to his wounds, and he got up after a short nap. He walked into the hallway and snuck up on them.

"you guys are dismissed of your duties an hour before the party, you can get back to them later after the party but I would assume you need at least an hour to get ready. Don't be late hm?" He leaned on both of them an arm on both shoulder.
