After fussing over Drake to be sure he was absolutely comfortable and double and triple checking with Rene to make sure it was okay for him to leave, Merri set off for the tower. He pulled any bottle he thought Drake might find useful for his recovery. Not that he did not trust Darius' prescriptions, of course, but it was always better to be safe than sorry. Once packed up, he rushed back to Drake's apartment, though because he lugged a dozen bottles in his pack and was still winded from the journey over, he was considerably slower even with the assistance of the crystals.
Once back, he offered them all to Drake and had let Rene go off to take care of his errands. Again, Drake insisted that he was fine, but Merri was not content to leave him alone. He still worried for his friend even though Darius had said that he would be fine, but when stomachs started grumbling, Merri knew that a dinner run would have to be made.
He left once Rene returned and asked everyone what they would like and he returned promptly with everyone's orders. Drake, again, tried to prove that he was better than he was with a response that instantly had Merri pushing a bottle towards him. "This will help, I promise!" he said.
