#when you or binah are sick it's like attaching a handle with care sign

[binah-beloved]

Came to give my thanks for the binah looking after you while sick posts they are a nice reread though while being sick

you're welcome. here's more to feel better

no one would expect the hands of an ex-Arbiter to be gentle. perhaps ruthless, efficient, or brutal, but not gentle. yet that is exactly what Binah is when she tends to you, helping you sit up with a delicate touch and holding a teacup to your lips. her voice is soft and calm as always as she watches you sip, words of encouragement slipping out as easily as sorting the never-ending books on her floor, and she's so proud of you when you finish the whole cup, settling your head back down onto the pillow with a soothing hum

she doesn't leave you. once, she tried, having thought that you were asleep, only to be stopped by your hand grasping her wrist and weakly calling her name, breaking her seemingly impenetrable heart. so now she remains by your side, rubbing her thumb gently over the back of your hand and watching you rest. if nightmares ever cloud your mind, hazy with illness, she slips under the covers and pulls you to her chest, massaging your aching muscles and murmuring reassuringly into your ears. it's nice, as she not only gets to comfort and hold you, but also because you'll wake up to her fast asleep by your side, fingers still intertwined with yours
