[At about midday on Day 278, the taller of the two teenage Ura comes running in to the Bastion from the Skyway. Anyone who has talked to this pair of boys will know how odd this is, because they are usually inseparable.

He's out of breath, but he will call out as he runs towards the monument.]

Help! Help, it's Zee, he's- He's in trouble!

SOME TIME LATER

[fuckthemancers]

[Once all the ruckus in the hospital has died down- idiots patched up and healed as best as the Bastion's residents can provide- Zulf and Colin finally return from where they lingered at the Orchard. It's everyone's favorite religious stoner who goes right for the hospital. There's a mandatory check up on Crona and Ryue before he drops by where Vee and Zee are.]

[Anyone in the immediate area, whether working to help the injured or cleaning up or just attracted, is in for a treat.]

I cannot BELIEVE you would display such flagrant disrespect for the Pantheon like that! Pyth, especially so! Insulting any of them or their avatars on this earth is a foolish endeavor, yet you would go after the Wakeful Bull? Did no one teach you proper respect for the divine!? With the things that he's done... You're fortunate that we were able to do what we did, and that the Lorn Mother and two of her children laid Pyth to rest.

When you've both recovered, I expect both of you to go to the Shrine and apologize to the first son!

[bastionpc]

[Zee at least has the sense of mind to look sheepish, but Vee is the one that speaks up.]

We weren't trying to disrespect him! We just wanted to ride him!

[amphibian]

[Too concerned about everyone there to leave, Aoi's been lingering about the hospital, chattering with the others and fetching things.

As soon as the yelling starts, she springs to her feet from the chair she's sitting on and whirls around. Today's events wore away her patience.]

Would you leave them alone?! It's been a long enough day already!

[amnesiadragon]

[Ryu gets up very carefully from the chair he's been resting in and walks over towards the ruckus. He looks apologetically at Aoi, before speaking up.]

I don't know about your gods, but I know that I'd forgive them.

... Maybe what they did wasn't right. Maybe they do need to apologize. But I'm sure they feel bad enough already.

[amphibian]

Sit down! [GUESS HOW MUCH OF THIS SHE IS HAVING

IS IT NONE???

IT'S NONE]

[bastionpc]

[YEAH UH these two are just going to sit quietly and watch this madness, they don't want to draw any more wrath their way.]

[fuckthemancers]

[Oh boy. Zulf is just going to give a frustrated sigh.]

Ryu, I think you're hurt worse than the boy...

[Seriously, how did you and Crona even...]

It's best to get this out of the way quickly, and they by far seem to be in a better state of health than some people I could name. If I thought they were seriously injured, then I wouldn't be scolding them.

[amnesiadragon]

[Ryu is very rarely frustrated, but this whole thing is pushing his limits a bit. He drags a hand down his face, suppressing a groan.]

I'm more worried about everyone else. I may be mortal but I'm still not human. I can take a lot more than the rest of you. And what kind of Endless would I be if I didn't try to look after people?

[... He'd be like the other Endless, actually, but he has Opinions on them not really helping people that aren't involved with Endless matters.]

... Anyway. They're pretty clearly sorry for what they did. They don't seem like bad people, so I'm pretty sure that the fact that people got hurt makes them feel bad enough. Yelling at them... isn't really going to help much.

[amphibian]

[Okay, well, if no one else is yelling, Aoi's gonna settle down a little bit, too.]

It's not helping right now. It happened, it's done, and everyone's gonna be fine, so we don't need to harp on it.
