Day 203 | The sick are recovering! (Open)

WHO: Colin, any recovering folks, any visitors.
OPEN: Open like a door
WHEN: Day 203 (BACKDATED)
WHAT: The cure has been found and administered. Check up on the sick, why don't you?
WHERE: The hospital
FORMAT: However you want, go nuts
WARNINGS: Recovering people, probable sass, and of course, Colin.



After six days of paranoia, and three days of absolute terror, things were finally looking up. A cure had been delivered, and with it, the calamity survivors had been able to synthesize more than enough doses of cure for the plague to safeguard the Bastion. It had been administered to the sick, and now all that was needed was to make sure that everyone recovered.

Colin, of course, was going to be visiting everyone to make sure that there weren't any complications. It wouldn't do to have anyone in danger after they'd made it through to the end. He had yet to take off his environmental suit though, his own paranoia was significant.

(OOC: I figure this will be a good opportunity for people to do a little more mingling, and get their bearings after the plague. The quarantine has been lifted, though Colin still wants people washing their hands frequently. If you want Colin to check up on the sick, he can do that! If you want someone else to check up on the sick, by all means! The threat is passed, now rejoice, hug your sick loved ones, and let's move on!)

I know. That's not exactly something good people do. He was just a kid.

Huh ....

Well, I guess there was bound to be some differences. You still remind me a lot of Shing, though.

[personal profile] hellpyre 2014-07-22 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Probably a scared kid, too... but they were threatenin' everyone, right?
daughterofursa: (headscratch)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2014-07-22 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Well- sort of. Most of them had lowered their weapons.

Mn. ... you miss him, don't you?

[She can tell. And she's been there. So many times over.]

[personal profile] hellpyre 2014-07-22 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
Then why did you... ?
daughterofursa: (if it comes to it)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2014-07-22 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
The one who didn't looked like he might still fire. I didn't want to take any chances.

But, maybe he wouldn't have done it either way.

No way of knowin' now, I guess...
daughterofursa: (headscratch)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2014-07-22 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
...yeah.

I should probably just be grateful we got out.
spiria: (⌠ fond ⌡)

[personal profile] spiria 2014-07-22 06:08 am (UTC)(link)
[ .... well, she can't deny that. she smiles, though, and shrugs. ]

We're all missing someone.

"Future scenario..." he muttered, arching a brow and shaking his head. "If this happens again, I would rather not live through it, I think," Seimei remarked, frowning slightly. He meant, more specifically, if it happened again and he was the cause of it. His shame at the events that occurred was so great it weighed on him like he carried the bodies of all those who nearly died on his shoulders. The very idea that he could have been responsible for even loss wasn't only humiliating to him. No, it was far more crippling than that.

"I have never been one to interact. I wore my exclusion from society with pride, in the past. If others wanted nothing to do with me I would laugh and tell myself that I wanted even less to do with them, so more the convenience for me. Sometimes it was true - I found humans as a whole to be poor inheritors of the world and had no desire to ally myself with them more than required to survive. Time and an unlikely friendship changed that, somewhat, and now the end of worlds has made it relatively moot, I would think. Still, I would never consider myself skilled at pretending to be social. I had no reason to cultivate the knack."

Probably...

[Whoops she might be starting to get tired again. She is still recovering after all.]
hellpyre: (pic#7608481)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2014-07-24 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
That's true. I... used to think that everyone was just... gone. And some people are. I've seen their statues. But... there are people out there, somewhere. We just gotta keep lookin'.

"Ah yes, Kaoru. Unhappy," he murmured with a soft sigh and shake of his head. "You have plenty of empathy, Starfury-san. You could have left and worried about yourself above all else, but you stayed and did everything you could to make this right. You might not have any skill at expressing your better self, but it is there. That, I imagine, is all that really matters."

[Zuko, being preoccupied with it herself, mistakes Rin's lackluster responses for discomfort with what she did, rather than tiredness. She should probably go.]

...guess I'll let you rest.
hellpyre: (pic#7608481)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2014-07-25 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Mn? ... oh... yeah. Sorry, I feel like I could sleep for days and still be tired...

[Something she hopes passes soon because really it's more annoying than anything, even if she likes sleep.]

Thanks for stoppin' by, though...
spiria: (⌠ focused ⌡)

[personal profile] spiria 2014-07-25 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah ...

[ She doesn't have a lot of hope about that, but ... it's possible. ]
daughterofursa: (curiosity)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2014-07-26 03:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh. Maybe she really is just tired? The thank you is reassuring even if Zuko is unsure how to respond.]

Uh, of course.

Hopefully, you'll be out of here soon.

"Well then, you have a better chance at figuring out this whole socializing thing than I do. My parents ran off to live in the woods together after I found out my mother was not human. Parenting was not something I long experienced. It is a wonder I survived at all," he mused wryly, reaching up to rub wearily at his face.

"I think you did a fine job, Starfury-san. A lot of people are indebted to you. And perhaps there will be no need for a next time, so to speak."
hellpyre: (maybe I should just die here...)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2014-07-27 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
There's a lot more people here now than there was at the start so... y'know. Try not to give up or whatever.
hellpyre: (pic#6048355)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2014-07-27 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[She is. Recovery is going to take a while, even for her.]

Mn. I should be...
spiria: (⌠ kicked ⌡)

[personal profile] spiria 2014-07-28 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll try not to. It's really hard, though.
hellpyre: (pic#6438714)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2014-07-29 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
... yeah. I know.

[Welp. This conversation got depressing as fuck.]
