[ Ardyn is no less battered than Somnus, having fought with obliviousness to the pain in the moment. He will regret it soon enough, of course, or at the very least once he is far away enough from Somnus. Bruises and black eyes and bleeding and what feels like some cracked ribs... the healing magic will have to take care of it all. For now, Ardyn glares at Somnus, similarly trying to recover from the fight. ]
Shut up.
[ He growls the words out, but anger is starting to give way to disgust. He has no desire to be here, to even look at his so-called brother, and he's... yes, he's got more dignity than continuing to look like he's a regular lowly brawler with more teeth than braincells. He sucks in a deeper breath, wincing at the ache in his chest, and stands up straighter, trying to free his arms from the hold of the fae, but in the calm way of someone getting a grip on himself. Giving Somnus one last look of disdain, he turns away to the guards, one of whom puts a restraining hand on his shoulder in case he tries to run away. ]
Write out your fine or whatever it is. I have places to be.

[ Places that are anywhere away from Somnus. ]
