"No, I didn't fall," she said, not expanding on the statement for now. Everything hurt and she was trying to figure out what to do with the fact she'd filled a castle with live rats and a cabin with dead ones. They couldn't stay here. She was mad at Gareth, but if he realized his house was full of rat corpses, he would freak out way more than she wanted him to. Also, she had a growing awareness that she had almost surely killed them. She didn't know how, but something about what she'd done had caused their deaths. This hadn't happened when she'd been poisoned before, and the only thing different from then was Gareth. Well, Gareth and her lack of medical attention afterwards. She'd been unconscious for hours that time, and this time she was trying to move around immediately, which was probably why everything hurt, so much, a lot.
Wait, actually, was there still poison in her body right now? There had to have been, physically speaking. She should. She should probably do something about that. At some point.
"I'll think about it," she said finally, because she wasn't willing to promise. "But only because I dunno what he'd do either." The King was unpredictable. He might lock Gareth away from her, and while that might have been best for everyone involved, she was pretty sure that it was a bad idea in the short term. There was a cabin full of dead rats that implied that anything taking him away from her, right now, was a really bad idea.
"But y'can't jus'. Keep lyin' to people about that, Gareth," she said tiredly. "An' I'm well aware that's proly th' most hypocritical thing I've ever said, under th' circumstances." She was going to have to tell him. She was going to have to make him understand what had happened. Otherwise he'd never know just how bad of an idea it had been. He might be lying again, and just telling her what she wanted to hear, like before.
With a quiet, aborted noise of pain, a cry that she stopped halfway, she rolled onto her side and pressed herself back up against Gareth's warmth. She was snuggling his hip, not his side, but whatever. Whatever, he was warm.
"Gareth, you--" Ren was interrupted by a sudden roll of nausea. Something about the movement proved to be too much, or maybe her body had finally caught up to the fact that she'd had a lot of poison and alcohol and a very questionable omelette. "Oh, fuck."
Gareth, mercifully, was a man who kept many small trash cans about his house, so despite the fact she didn't make it all the way to the bathroom, or even close, she did manage to half-stagger, half-crawl a few feet away to the nearest wastebin, where she upended the toxic contents of her stomach, eggs included. It burned like hell coming up, not helped by the fact she couldn't breathe because her nose was all stuffed up from crying. It smelled absolutely noxious, too; she'd definitely be throwing that out into the snow just the absolute second she could.
She dry heaved for a moment, as if her body was trying to make sure it was all empty and then, mercifully, slumped to the side.
"Oh god," she groaned. "That was disgustin'. That wasn't aimed at you, sorry, th' timin' was weird on that one. Ugh. No, don't fuckin' move, stay on the bed." She hadn't even turned to look at him, but she knew Gareth, and he'd be very upset by this turn of events. "Just. Gimme a sec. I can explain. I need to explain, I think."
