Chapter 202 - Chapter 202 Minimum Movement

As Thomas woke up he stared at the roof and mumbled "M-my body won't move." Ocis sat up holding his tail and asked him "Are you alright?" Thomas stared at her and said "P-please let go." Ocis glanced at her wings and seen that she was wrapped around his tail." Ocis quickly let go and apologized as she said "I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention." As Mira woke up she glanced at Ocis and asked "What's going on?" Ocis stared at Mira and said "It turns out I was holding onto his tail all night." Mira stared at Thomas and smirked as she said "No wonder you making such cute noises." Thomas glanced at her and said "Please forget about it." Mira smiled and said "Not gonna happen." Thomas forced himself to sit up as he said "Fine but please don't go around telling everyone." Ocis stared at Thomas and said "I really didn't mean to." As Thomas stood he said "Don't worry, I'm sure it'll be fine." As he began to fall Ocis caught him and said "This is my fault so allow me to watch over you." Thomas sighed and said "Fine but only for today." Ocis put his arm over her shoulder and excitedly said "I'm glad your actually relying on me for once." As they all walked out of the building they seen Rose sitting outside of the house relaxing in the grass. Rose glanced at them and asked "What happened." Thomas glanced at her and said nothing as Ocis said "This is actually my fault." As Lily walked out the door she stared at his tail and asked "What happened to your tail?" Thomas flinched and blushed as he said "The fur is messed up, I'll fix it later." Rose stared at him and smiled as she said "If I had a brush I'm sure I could make your tail look like new." Lily smiled and said "It just so happens that I have a brush with me." Thomas glanced at Lily and said "I'd rather do it myself." Lily walked into the house for a moment and then back out with a brush as she said "Just sit there and relax, let us help you." Ocis began to lower Thomas as she said "If you'd like I can find the others." Thomas laid there on the ground and mumbled "I can hardly move." Rose grabbed the brush and said "I've never actually brushed anyone's hair, so you'll have to forgive me if I mess up." Thomas sat there nervously as he said "I already told you not to worry about it." As the brush touched his tail he mumbled "N-no, p-please stop." Lily walked around to the front of him and glanced at him as she smiled and said "Just relax we're helping you." As Ocis came back with the others Poppy walked up to his face and asked "What's with the erotic expression?" Rose glanced at Poppy and said "He's been like that ever since I started." Ceil walked over to Rose and asked "Can I give it a try?" The other all stared at her and said "I'd like to brush his tail too." As she lifted the brush Thomas slammed his head into the ground and mumbled "C-can't take anymore." Rose handed Ceil the brush and said "Go on, but be careful it has a lot of knots in it." Ceil nodded and said "I'll be extremely careful." Ocis sat down beside Thomas head and said "If you'd like you can use my lap as a pillow while the others brush your tail." Thomas laid there completely silent with a bright red face as Ocis smiled and said "I'll take that as a yes then." Ocis lifted Thomas's head and set his head on her lap as she smiled and said "Now you should be more comfy." Once his tail was back to normal and everyone was done brushing his tail they stood around him and asked "When are we going back?" Thomas glanced at them and mumbled "C-can't move." Poppy stared at him and said "If you'd like I can create a temporary door here." Lily stared at Poppy and excitedly said "Ya let's get out of here and do some more quests." Rose walked over to Ocis and Thomas as she said "I can watch him if you'd like." Ocis stood up and handed Thomas to her as she said "Okay but be careful with him, he won't be able to move for a while." Rose picked him up and said "Alright then I'll keep him safe." As the door was created they all walked through and found themselves in Rose's temporary camp. Rose set Thomas down and said "I'm gonna gather some firewood while the others do there thing." Thomas glanced at her and mumbled "I don't think I'll be able to move freely for at least a day." Thomas laid there staring off into the sky he mumbled "Come on stupid body move." As a man stepped out of the bushes he walked towards Thomas and said "Hand over your valuables and I'll let you go." Thomas laid there and said "Can't move." The man began to walk towards Thomas as kneeled down beside him and began to rummage through his pockets. Before the man could take anything however Rose began to emerge from the forest. The man panicked and took his jacket as he began to run he shouted "Good luck dealing with that beast!" Rose glanced at Thomas and asked "Did he hurt you?" Thomas glanced at her and said "The jacket." Rose set the firewood down beside him and said "Your right I can't let him get away with the jacket, you need it." Rose glanced back up to search for the man as she said "I'll find him." Thomas stared at her and mumbled "Its useless you won't find him." Rose sighed and sat down beside him and picked him up with both of her hands and held him closely as she said "I should've brought you with me., if I did you wouldn't have been robbed." Thomas sighed and said "Don't worry about it, I can probably make another one." Rose glanced around her said "I won't leave you this time, not even for a second." Thomas glanced at her and said "Don't worry about it, it's unlikely that he'd try to rob us again." Rose glanced up at the sky and said "We still have a lot of day light to burn." Rose stood up and said "We can leave the firewood here and go exploring if you'd like." Thomas glanced at her and said "That's up to you, I don't really care what we do." Rose smiled and said "I can show you a super cool place I found before if you'd like." Rose lifted Thomas up to her face as he mumbled "Sure, it'll kill some time." Rose smiled and said "Then let's stop wasting time and get a move on." As they arrived at a Lake Rose smiled and said "This place is great, it's so relaxing and peaceful." Rose glanced at a few fishermen and said "Even the people are nice." The fishermen she was looking at waved to her and said "Its been a while since I've seen, we'd thought you left." Rose set down by the water and said "Nope, not yet." The man glanced at her and asked "How is that boyfriend you were talking about?" Rose blushed and said "H-he's fine." Rose raised a finger to her mouth and signaled him to be quite as she proceeded on point to Thomas who was asleep in her hand. The man stared at Thomas and laughed as he said "I see, I wish you two luck." Rose thanked him and said "Thanks but, I haven't really told him yet, besides I don't think he remembers me from way back then." The man laughed and said "If your story is true he'd have to be hundreds of years old." Rose stared at him and said "I know, it's probably not him and could be one of his relatives." The man nodded and said "If I had to guess that would be one of his great grand children." Poppy stared at the man and smiled as she said "No I'm confident that he is the person from that time many years ago." The man reeled in a fish and said "I'm not telling you to doubt who he is I'm just stating the obvious." Rose smiled and said "Of course but I have faith that he is the same demi human I knew all those years ago." The man packed the fish up and tossed it over his back as he began to walk away and said "If you can't ask him Wait a couple hundred years, if he doesn't age he's exactly the person your looking for." The man glanced at her and said "But if he dies by then he's likely not him." Rose stood up and said "I should get going too, I wish you luck as well." The man smiled and said "You'll need much more luck then me."
