Day 201 [event post]

Who: Zahi and everyone who wants to go hunt down the cure
Open: Open
When: 201- onwards
Where: the monument, and then out on the Skyway
What: People in the Bastion are falling sick, and Zahi knows where a cure can be found. Unfortunately, it won't be easy to get to.
Format: action
Warnings: none

[On Day 201, after several people have fallen ill, another meeting is called. This time, however, it is not Nathaniel who has called for everyone. It's Zahi.]

Okay, I know everyone's been worried about the people in the hospital, and it looks like our fears weren't unfounded: some of the people who went on that last trip, they caught something.

I've been watching the symptoms, and I think I know what this is. A long time ago, back before Zayna was born, there was a terrible illness that claimed the lives of many Ura. Everyone who fell sick here, they had the same symptoms as those who caught the disease before.

On the plus side, this means that it can be cured. I know of a clinic, way out in the Terminals, where there should be some medicine stocked. Not only can we cure the sick, but we can give another kind of medicine to those who aren't sick yet, so they won't catch it at all.

The downside is that it's gonna take a while to get there. It'll be at least two days there, and possibly more to track down exactly where the clinic is, and then the same amount of time back. We're looking at a four-day minimum, which means we won't be much help to those who are sick right now. They'll either be dead or getting better by the time we get back.

Then there's the fact that it's really dangerous out there. Zayna and I were out on the Terminals before we came here, and let's just say that there's a reason we went looking for somewhere safer to stay.

If you'd rather stay here, I can understand that. The Bastion is an amazing place, and I wouldn't be surprised if someone here managed to save everyone. But I'm not a fan of putting all my eggs in one basket, so I figured it's worth a shot to go and try to get some of the medicine.

What do you guys think?

[Roxas just looks confused.]

I didn't say it was a bad thing...

[Jay shrugs.]

Sometimes it is. But ... I think you misunderstood me, dearest. I merely meant, I'm hardly ... unique.

[He sounds like this thought pains him.]
coolerthansora: (beginning to believe in)

[personal profile] coolerthansora 2014-07-19 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Why, just 'cause you're not the only one with fire?

[Hang on, coughing.]

There's a guy out there- who looks exactly like me. We're still really different.

[Jay snorts with laughter.]

Yes, darling, I've got a twin, too.
coolerthansora: (because you're a jerk)

[Roxas frowns. He doesn't like people laughing at him when he wasn't trying to be funny.]

We're not twins.

i think we should try to wrap up soon?

[Jay raises an eyebrow and decides Roxas must be delirious.]

Hrm. Well, people looking like you isn't unusual, is my point, dearest. Magic powers are less common than that.
coolerthansora: (but if x equals y...)

sure

[personal profile] coolerthansora 2014-07-25 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
It was- heart stuff. That's kinda like magic.

[Yeah, probably not sounding any more coherent even if it's true. The facetwin situation is just super weird. Either way he should probably be resting or something.]

[Jay chooses to assume Roxas is rambling. He pats the boy's shoulder.]

Darling, I think you should rest. I'll ... I'll be around if you need anything.
coolerthansora: (curious)

[personal profile] coolerthansora 2014-07-25 06:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh... Okay.

[He's probably got other people to check on, too.]

Thanks- for the water.

No problem, dearest. Rest up!

[And with that, he's gone, to continue his rounds.]
