I don't think that's how grounding normally works, but we can make an exception in this case.

Mm. Everyone is grounded, myself very much included.

Sleep and enjoyable home activities today only.

I like the sound of that. Both Daffodil and Bluebell already offered to help us out with anything we might need when you're back, so we've got no excuses to go anywhere.

Re: after

That is kind of them.

[he hadn't quite expected Daffodil, but -- he knows Crois is fond of Ananke, and Muffin of Lethe, and Aides had stayed over there after the bomb ritual -- okay you know what Daffodil is legit]

I...am not good for much but rest once we're back, though, I'm afraid.

[the admission is a little bit pained. but he's not so prideful he can't self-assess and know he's just thoroughly mcfucked mentally, as much as he wants to immediately just get caught up and get back to something like normalcy.]

You are all right with keeping things in hand a bit longer?

[ He'd expected this, but had been prepared to argue to keep the staff a little longer. It sparks an ache in his chest to hear Charon admit it so easily.

He leans back to look at him, smiling warmly (not quite successful at hiding the concern there) ]

I can handle it. I've got the rest of Lily to help me out if anything else really happens.

[his expression softens, a little, under that smile]

Thank you, Ananke.

No problem. You just focus on recovering.
