Birthday ficlet

Happy birthday to one of the loveliest people I have met in this fandom and am grateful to call my friend - @iris-in-the-rain! 💙 This little ficlet is for you, dear! I hope you enjoy it!

————

Title: In Her Arms [AO3]

Characters: Ho-Tan, the Youngers, the Elders

A/N: This is a sequel to my prompt ficlet Packing in which Ho-Tan refuses to admit she's sick. The Youngers' names are based on this post. Teddy for Trevor's Younger is a new addition I came up with for this story.

————

In Her Arms

There was a soft knock on her bedroom door.

“Come in,” Ho-Tan called hoarsely. She pushed herself up to her elbows as five small heads and a little blue blob carefully peered around her door with matching anxious looks and worried frowns on their faces. Her heart swelled with more affection than she knew what to do with. For the first time in days, a smile broke out on her face. “Oh, you made it!”

Taking her joyful relief as permission to enter the room, the Youngers pushed through the door and nearly stumbled over each other in their eagerness to come closer.

“Hi Mum,” Alfie said softly and reached for her cold hands. “How are you feeling? Uncle Choop told us you were sick.”

Ho-Tan did her best to swallow the cough she could feel tickling in her throat. It wouldn’t do to make the children worry even more than they already were.

“Better now that you’re here,” she said sincerely once she was sure her voice wouldn’t break halfway through the sentence. She gave her son’s hand a reassuring squeeze. “How was your journey?”

As the Youngers launched into a riveting tale about all the things they’d seen along the way – even a real dragon, according to Irk – Ho-Tan allowed herself to sink back against her pillows and let their voices settle around her like a warm, comforting blanket. It felt good to have her children here – to have them home. She had missed them these past few weeks; more than she’d like to admit, if she was being honest. Their bright eyes and smiling faces made even the glummest day bearable and made her feel at peace like little else in the Realms did. Now that she had them with her, Ho-Tan felt even more grateful to Choop and the others for rearranging their plans so the Youngers could come visit them instead of the other way around. She would have never been fit enough to travel, not after the night she’d had. Her fever had spiked so badly that just after midnight, Vex had been forced to go and fetch the doctor.

Thanks to her help and the foul-smelling tea she had forced Ho-Tan to drink Ho-Tan was fine now – not perfectly, of course, but her fever had finally broken in the early hours of the morning, leaving her weak and tired but still feeling better than she had in days. Certainly well enough to bask in the presence of her children.

“And then it breathed fire!” Irk exclaimed with wide eyes before he proceeded to imitate the, apparently, fire-breathing dragon by crawling on all four over her floor and sticking out his tongue as he roared and snarled at them in a rather cute manner that made Ho-Tan bite her lip.

“It did not,” little Teddy piped up from where he rested in Sepal’s hand.

Daisy nodded in agreement. “It was a lizard, nothing more.”

“It didn’t even puff smoke,” Barry added, sounding vaguely disappointed.

Irk harrumphed mid-growl and sat up. He crossed his arms in front of his chest in such a petulant manner that this time, Ho-Tan couldn’t help but laugh. It felt good, even if her laughter eventually turned into a coughing fit that left her gasping for breath.

Alvin’s hold on her hand tightened in worry. “Mum? Are you all right?”

“Of course I am,” Ho-Tan rasped out once she felt like she could breathe again. “You’re here, aren’t you?”

The Youngers smiled at her – still looking a little spooked, perhaps, but also obviously glad to be home.

Ho-Tan patted the empty space next to her on the bed. “Come on, I want to hear about the rest of your trip.”

Alvin and Irk immediately cuddled up close to her just like they’d done when they were younger. Sepal handed Teddy to her and joined Alvin on her left side, followed by Daisy. Young Barry made himself comfortable next to Irk before he picked up his story about the dragon that actually was a lizard (“But it had a frill and looked all big and scary with it!”) again.

An hour later, when Choop and the other Elders came to see how they were doing, the Youngers were still curled up at Ho-Tan’s side but instead of daring tales of adventure the sound of soft snoring now filled her room.

“The journey must have taken it out of them,” Pressley murmured with a fond smile as he gently rested one of his hands on Barry’s curly head.

“It was quite eventful,” Ho-Tan agreed with a quiet smile.

Vex carefully sat down on the edge of the bed and let his eyes roam over her face in concern for a moment before he asked, “Are you all right, my dear?”

Ho-Tan nodded at him, still tired but so very happy to have her whole family around her for once.

“Of course she is,” Choop said softly. He sat down next to Vex and pushed that stubborn lock of hair Ho-Tan was never able to tame behind her ear with a gentleness that made her feel more cherished than she thought she deserved. His fingers briefly touched her brow, looking for signs of a fever that was no longer there. “She’s got everything she needs right here, haven’t you, my dear?”

Ho-Tan smiled.

“Hear, hear,” Flowers said quietly. Together with Pressley, he sat down on the other side of the bed, careful not to disturb the children, while Trevor got comfortable at their feet.

They mean to stay, Ho-Tan suddenly realised, and for the second time that day she felt her heart swell with so much love it shimmered wetly in her eyes. For Choop was right: all she truly needed was her family and today, she finally had them all in her arms again. Even exhausted and aching, Ho-Tan couldn’t imagine a better way to spend a day than this: holding the people she loved close and being held by them in return.
