Day 124 || Open

Who: Axel and anyone who has reason to be visiting him at the hospital
Open: Open
When: Day 124
Where: The Hospital
What: After a rather rough landing, Axel finally wakes up in his new home.
Format: Action or Prose works for me~ I'll follow whichever you choose
Warnings: None atm; will edited if necessary!


When Axel wakes up the first thing he feels is a sharp pain just behind his eyes followed shortly by the feeling of his stomach turning. Thankfully they're both brief and he doesn't end up throwing up, but he's discouraged enough to want to stay still and even try falling back asleep. He shuts his eyes again on that note, but suddenly a thought occurs to him and he nearly shoots up in surprise.

Where-- Where is this again?

Oh. That's right.

Panting, he glances around the room through half-lidded eyes and spots his Organization coat draped over a chair in the corner of the room alongside his boots and gloves. How long was he asleep for, he wonders? And for that matter, how does he know he's not just dreaming right now? Ugh. All this thinking-- It's just giving him an even bigger headache. Sighing, Axel carefully settles himself back down on the bed and ends up draping an arm right over his eyes.

"What a mess..."

Saix isn't really one for "hospital visits". Him standing over someone's bed isn't going to make them get better any sooner, after all. As far as he's been concerned, Axel will get better when he gets better... or when he doesn't. Things had looked as though they would be on the better side of things, however, so Saix has simply been focusing on getting to work in this place. There's so much to do- it's almost refreshing honestly. Vatheon had been too quiet with just bursts of energy. Here? There's always something that needs to be done, supplies that need gathering. It hasn't been long, but Saix has already started to find his place in things.

That isn't to say he's happy about their current situation of course. (Although he's not particularly sad, either.) It's simply better to actually be doing something instead of sitting about doing nothing half the time.

It's been a few days since they've arrived here, and Saix finally decides to visit the hospital to check on Axel's condition for himself. He keeps the Berserker Nobody stationed outside and New Moon at his side as he makes his way through the building. There's no attempt at knocking, since he's still expecting the redhead to be out, but when he realizes that Axel is actually awake... Saix pauses.

"...It took you long enough."

The sound of Axel's voice makes New Moon strain against his leash, tail wagging, but Saix reins him in easily enough. It's an automatic gesture with all of his focus on Axel. "Of course I'm here, along with your- along with Roxas as well. There are a few others from Vatheon as well, but not many." Making New Moon heel, Saix comes closer to the bed to get a better look at him.

"How long have you been up?"

[personal profile] croceamors 2013-11-07 05:52 pm (UTC)(link)
"So I suppose no one has briefed you on what's happened." So responsibility falls onto him again. Saix sighs and gets a chair to sit down besides the bed. New Moon won't stop wiggling, so he finally gives the dog the okay to get up onto Axel's bed. You like dog kisses, don't you Axel? Of course you do. New Moon cuddles up to the redhead, whining in happiness.

Saix waits for it to quiet down a little before speaking up again. "You recall Traverse Town, don't you? This place is similar- one of the few places left after worlds are destroyed."

It works like a charm, and New Moon just lays there, cuddled and happy. He loves you, redhaired person.

"That's right." Saix doesn't seem to be much affected by this news. He states that little fact blandly. "I've been investigating, and it seems that an event happened in this World much like the Heartless started on Radiant Garden. Something called the Calamity occurred, and seemed to take out a great many worlds. This is the only guaranteed safe area."

[personal profile] croceamors 2013-11-08 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
This is why you need to be a pessimist, Axel, then you won't be surprised at this shit.

"Of course." Saix practically scoffs. It seems that no matter where they end up, there's going to be issues. Traverse Town had the Heartless, the Organization had a supposed lack of hearts, and Vatheon... Well, Vatheon had scientists with as much morality as Vexen had. "The Bastion is incomplete. I've talked with some people, and apparently the solution is finding power sources called Cores, large blue crystals. Apparently, given enough of these, the Bastion might be able to fix what just happened."

Rin didn't really have a reason to visit per se, but she was in charge of bringing trays to those who were awake and well enough to eat solid food, which also meant checking the rooms to see if anyone new had regained consciousness recently.

That said there was really only one person left who hadn't returned to the land of the waking since the arrival of the new survivors, and oh lo and behold, it looked like they were finally awake!

But Rin had been out with Colin on the Skyway, so she wasn't aware of this fact until later in the evening, around the closest thing to "dinner time" that the Bastion could properly manage.

Pushing along a cart (that Colin had oh so helpfully put together for her while they'd been out there) with trays of the aforementioned food, she stopped and the door and poked her head in to the occupied room to check.

"... oh. You're awake."

Whoops suddenly awkward.

[personal profile] hellpyre 2013-11-08 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
Oh no. This again. Rin's ears twitched down a little, tail moving low to the ground. Her fingers tapped against the door frame as she searched for something halfway reassuring to say.

Nothing came to mind.

"... uhm. No. I mean, you mighta known some one like me before... all this."

[personal profile] hellpyre 2013-11-08 08:29 am (UTC)(link)
Well the tail and the pointed ears are certainly real, so he's not seeing things. But she can't blame him for feeling that way. He's really not the first person to look at her like that.

"Rin. The name on the door said you're... Axel? I uhm... I've got food. If you're hungry."

Unlike a certain someone, Roxas has been spending quite a lot of time watching over Axel, waiting for him to wake up. Really getting settled in and adjusting to their new predicament is something he's put on hold. It's surprising that he misses the precise moment Axel wakes, but it also doesn't take long for him to return from wherever he went off to, chocobos following at his heels.

"Axel!" he exclaims on seeing movement from his friend. "You're awake?" He quickly crosses the room to Axel's bedside. The chocobos scurry after him, chirping excitedly, and start clambering up onto the bed. Are you okay, mommy?
coolerthansora: (heh)

[personal profile] coolerthansora 2013-11-07 02:22 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm fine, you're the one in the hospital." Roxas tugs a chair closer and sits, giving Axel a wry smile. "How's your head?"

He's not going to mention that he hit his own head during their unexpected world-hop, because it wasn't nearly as bad and it really is fine now. The chocobos settle down some at Axel's pats, which is a good thing since he probably doesn't need the oversized chicks trampling all over him at the moment.
coolerthansora: (friendship)

[personal profile] coolerthansora 2013-11-08 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
"I just had a few bumps, and they all made it just fine."

After a pause, he adds, "Saix is okay, too." He's not sure if the other Nobody was included in Axel's question, but he'd probably like to know anyway.
coolerthansora: (simple tragedies)

[personal profile] coolerthansora 2013-11-08 01:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah. A few other people made it from Vatheon, too, but- no one else I really know."

He gives a frown at that, because he isn't sure what that means for the rest of them. Sora, Namine, Demyx, the other Rin. Heck, he'll even spare a thought for Vanitas. Are they all just... lost?
coolerthansora: (back turned)

[personal profile] coolerthansora 2013-11-09 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
Roxas shakes his head. Maybe Axel's right, and they're all okay somewhere, but everyone's told him that the world he came from is gone. He's been thinking about that, and what this place reminds him of.

"I dunno if they're all right, right now. They say the worlds are- shattered. But you know, when Sora defeated Ansem-- He was able to restore a whole lot of lost worlds and people. Maybe this time it's our turn."
