( no ish is dead? tch his long con to kill ish failed—
Had Hwylryn said it that way on purpose? Absolutely not. Had he said it that way thoughtlessly? Absolutely. And so he suffers the consequences of his actions,
Ish's flurry of reactions are a delight - somewhere in there he pieces together a narrative, his eyes sparkling bright as he tries to keep pace with Ish's brain whirling, the pace of the conversation gone from smooth to frenetic—
and then they're falling, and Hwylryn is laughing as they go down - not cruelly! - realizing he's startled Ish bad enough to drop them, and he's totally forgotten in this split second of action that he's not impervious to injury anymore, and he's ought to be concerned!
They hit the hedge, the bush, with total, ungraceful impact, his laughter is stopped by the soreness of his body and the rude jostle of gravity. Unfortunately, he only finds this that much more delightful - like getting thrown around by Ish's emotion - and he hasn't fallen in such a long time, it's novel and fun. )
Hey!
( Okay, but first thing's first - is he on Ish? Either way, he's pulling off just enough to get a good look at Ish. He's probably scratched up, his hair tangled and twiggy, and the impact sure winded him, but he's so used to being impervious he doesn't even think about it. )
Are you okay? You didn't get hurt, right?
( As if Ish weren't the super powered one between them right now. He loosely brushes some hair behind his ear and out of his face so he can brush some twigs and leaves away from Ish's face. He can clarify but only as long as Ish is fine, first, )
