She's stretched out on her back on the grass, gingerly touching her lip--Faith split it, and bruised...more places than she wants to think of--and feeling rather content as she waits for Edmund, absently licking a bit of blood away from the tear after she lowers her hand.

Bruised, but not all that badly, if in many places, and even those don't really hurt.

It's satisfying, and nice out, and she's happy to just look up at the stars.

"I'm sure that's a relief for all parties concerned," he says, amused, before leaning over and kissing the corner of her mouth.

"I can't think of anyone else I know right now who could have convinced me to go swimming at this hour of the night, besides."

"And naked, too. You're becoming quite wild, milord." She grins, mischievously, and when she mimics him and leans in, it's not a kiss to the corner of his mouth, or a light one, but a very full one, before she pulls back. "Let's go check on Lockheed and Derry, then?"

He chuckles, softly.

"Yes, well, it's hardly the first time I've done that... but you're right, we should."

"I'm not entirely surprised." She rolls her eyes a bit before they begin to walk in.

And Derry is, in fact, awake, though the slightly drunk, to Edmund's horror, though not, Kitty points out, to badly so, dragon seems to be amusing her very well. Still, she reaches her arms out, when they enter, and Kitty picks her up, already starting to hum, as she points Edmund towards the bed.

Lockheed goes to up his state from slightly drunk to completely smashed, as Kitty sits in a rocking chair, still humming, and kisses Derry's hair.

And Derry sighs contentedly.
