...and all the while you remain seated on the couch while the two dark elves struggle on the floor at your feet. A soft, loving smile comes to your face, letting the conflict play out for a little while before you finally intervene. Leaning forward to reach down and make contact with Xedeg, grasping and holding whatever of his extremities you can. You already have total influence over Shuredi so that she would give her life for you, so no need to focus on anyone but the male. And soon enough his hostility starts to subside.
<span class="mu-g"><span class="mu-i">"Listen to her, she can help! She's good, she... loves us!"</span></span> Shuredi pleads with her comrade.
<span class="mu-g"><span class="mu-i">"-no! N-No... no.... nnnnnn..."</span></span>
<span class="mu-r"><span class="mu-i">"Shhhhh, shhh... don't fight. Don't fight your friend, don't fight... me."</span></span>
With the she-elf doing her best to restrain him on the floor, Xedeg struggles to resist you but gradually fades in defiance and hostility. Your touch, your words, your loving presence, already he'd fallen a little under your influence but now he's sure to fall as much a victim as Shuredi. When it seems safe enough you move from the couch to sit on the floor with them, encouraging and gesturing for them to cease their grappled struggle.
Coaxing them to come to you, offering solace and comfort as you draw them both to your body in embrace again. Holding them close like a loving mother, as they both break down crying again. All that nasty anger and fear and hate and stress just bleeding away... like their slaughtered comrade just a few feet away. All of those awful feelings replaced with relief and love, stripped away of age and experience, practically reduced to children again.
<span class="mu-r"><span class="mu-i">"There there, my little kittens... don't worry, Sedjet will make it better..."</span></span>
Your children, as much as they feel like. You feel of course, how much you'd love to just crush their heads in your arms right now, but hesitate for what benefit you might get out of them. What you may ask or do, because for the time being you have them utterly in your control.
>What do you do?
