DR Side Thread: BRACING FOR INCOMING BITCHSMACKING

[paradetherain]

[So after that whole deal, Isamu needs... a very long nap. Which is why he's shut himself in his room, attempting to sleep.]

[And he does. For a little while. Except now he's staring up at the ceiling in the middle of the afternoon, still exhausted. Yue had told him that Hypnos had been trying to start something called 'the Fall' in his world, and that the Universe arcana could seal Nyx... is that why he felt so terrible?]

[... Probably. He felt like he had the flu or something. And if Yue or any of his friends got wind of what he had gotten his dumb ass himself into...]

[Yeah, he was gonna be in trouble.]

[[ooc; Bother?]]

Pretty much.

[And the Universe-tan feels like he's been run over by a truck. Sob.]

{Aww, poor dear. Reaching over, she grabs his hands before nodding slowly.} I doubt healing spells will get rid of the pain completely but..

I can try, if you want.

[arisato-isamu.livejournal.com]

Ah... it's worth a try? I had Kushinada-Hime cast a few, but... they didn't seem to do anything.

[castellanus.livejournal.com]

Alright, I'll see what I can do. {And for the spells she casts, they're pretty high level but all they seem to do is make the pain less worse; almost like an ice pack to a torn ligament.}

.. Is it working?

[arisato-isamu.livejournal.com]

[... Sigh.]

... The pain's still there, just less severe.

/kicked puppy goes here

{Her expression softens- of course she was expecting for it to not have any effect at all by the sigh lets her know she failed halfway.

Not the best results.}

Wow, now I just feel like a pack of painkillers. Sorry I can't do more.. {The laugh out of her throat is weak and she lets go of his hands softly, looking down.}

NO NOT THE PUPPIES. D8

[arisato-isamu.livejournal.com]

Ah... it's not your fault.

[Tries to sit up a little straighter ow.]

I'll be all right eventually, I think.

[He hopes. There's still things he has to do that require not being in bed. :| ]

YOUR FAULT FOR BEING ENABLED.

[castellanus.livejournal.com]

I hope you will be- I don't think Sarasvati will let me until she's sure you're alright. {Enlightenment and all that, silly demon.}

In the meantime, is it alright if I make some tea? Doesn't look like you can get up anytime soon... {Weirdest girl you've invited in your place, Isamu.}

Sob.

[arisato-isamu.livejournal.com]

... If it's not too much trouble, I'd like that. Thank you.

[Smiles weakly.]

s'okay. : <

[castellanus.livejournal.com]

{She nods and makes the motion to get up.} Sarasvati will be here just in case you need anything. I can probably manage in your kitchen.

{And as she walks off, the demon simply tilts her head at Isamu and plays a chord on her sitar.}

.. Causing quite a scare, I believe.

[arisato-isamu.livejournal.com]

All right.

[He looks at Sarasvati and nods.]

I... didn't mean to. I just... I couldn't leave someone who needed help behind...

[castellanus.livejournal.com]

{The demon nods and plays another chord before tilting her head, almost like she's looking past Isamu, and not at him.}

Many become martyrs that way- don't bite off more than you can chew unless you have good reason to, human.

{.. This demon, this demon.}

[arisato-isamu.livejournal.com]

Ah... I'm trying not to.

[This demon is making him slightly uncomfortable that's what this demon is doing. Sigh.]

[castellanus.livejournal.com]

{How the hell does Hayden become friends with pricks like these demons and certain others and such I'll never know.

Anyway she comes in a few minutes later with a tray and two cups. Giving a glance to the Sarasvati, she raises an eyebrow before returning the demon to the COMP. Tension. Can definitely cut through it.}

.. Ah, I'm sorry. She's not the best demon to talk to, that much I know. Also here, white tea with mint.

{She would be the best housewife ever without the death.}

[arisato-isamu.livejournal.com]

It's all right. Thank you.

[She really would be. He takes the tea and sips it slowly.]

[castellanus.livejournal.com]

{Taking a seat by the bedside, she cradles her own cup before looking up after a minute or two. She's not well with silence at the moment.}

.. Is it good?

[arisato-isamu.livejournal.com]

It is.

[Get used to it, linefaces thrive off of silence. Or something. :||| ]

[castellanus.livejournal.com]

{But your second dad was Yosuke and he was note a lineface. Grr.}

I'm glad, my friend always says my tea is too sweet, too poor, something like that. {That and it has healing properties but THAT'S NOT OUR FAULT.}

[arisato-isamu.livejournal.com]

[HENCE WHY YUE IS LESS OF A LINEFACE.]

I think it's just right.

[Smiles a bit.]

[castellanus.livejournal.com]

{OH SILLY GENETICS. Your expression traits are marvelous.}

Glad you think so. {She returns the nod before something comes up on her COMP. Looking to the amplifier, she checks the message before tilting her head.} .. Huh, that's odd...

[arisato-isamu.livejournal.com]

[Or something.]

... What is it?

[castellanus.livejournal.com]

{She shakes her head.} The date- I think my COMP's messed up...

{Still not aware she's in a nexus and that in the future she's dead. sob.}

[arisato-isamu.livejournal.com]

Maybe... it's possible.

[castellanus.livejournal.com]

Does it look right..? {Holding the COMP over to him, the date's as it is supposed to be in the mall.}

That's so weird...

[arisato-isamu.livejournal.com]

Ah. This place... is between worlds. That might be the date here.

[It's behind their time anyway. Sob.]
