[It's been a while since Kili's shown his face in public, and as the feed starts, it becomes apparent as to why. The young dwarf is terribly pale, a gleam of sweat shining on his brow and dark shadows beneath bloodshot eyes. He's been ill, very much so, and it's only really now that he's become conscious enough to speak.
Some words are difficult to understand as his voice is mostly gone, and what is understandable is spoken in a rough, croaky tone.]
I will pay for someone to bring me food, and ale if possible. I have coin or I can pay you back in fresh game, once I-- [He's interrupted by a harsh cough.] Once I can hunt again.
[He's half tempted to ask for a healer. He may be getting better, but he still feels awful. His pride rebels against the idea. He's a dwarf, he's strong. He can handle this on his own. It's difficult enough to admit he's too weak to fetch himself food.]
If I could get that soon.

...Could...could you come visit? [His expression is sheepish but hopeful.] Thorin's out somewhere.

It will help.
[She smiles but, if he looks to her eyes, she has a sly look.] And if you let me help you get better, I will gladly pay for your ale when you are well again.
action
...Fine, if you promise.
action
You have my word.

I should cook something for you while I'm here.
action
I wouldn't say no.
action
I'll start a stew then, enough for yourself and Thorin if he'd care for some when he returns.
[Taking the glass.]
Would you like more water as well?
action
Aye. Please.
action
[She leaves the cloth with him for his head and goes, listening in case he needs her. The she-elf starts an easy stew, something light with the proper herbs and spices before getting him another glass of water and returning.]
action
I'm tired of being ill.
action
[She would assume it's different from how sick she felt when she had been pregnant. It's hard to know. Same she hasn't the psychic ability of mother to try to get an idea.]
I'm sure you'll be well soon. And I can come each day until you are, if you'd like.
action
[His eyes brighten at the suggestion.] I would like that.
action
[Light pressing a kiss to the top of his head.]
Then I will do so. I think you may have to tell Thorin of my visits. I do not want to cause any trouble.
action
I'll tell him.
action
[She returns the smile easily.]
The stew will take some time if you'd like to try sleeping again.

Thanks, 'Bri.

[She can't bring herself to comment on him only getting part of her name it. It's cute, really. Instead, she just sings very softly in elvish until he's fast asleep.]
