yasusada is here, and so is jiuqing. i'm not sure if you were just smokescreening with "he's going to be good and heal his burns" when really we were going to have them talk about role stuff, so i don't want to be like "when he gets out of the pod, she's here," but. she's here!]
[MEDBAY LMFKDSJGHK no he really is here to get healed. Let's say he's out of the pod now--it's later by this point, since he'll go in for the full 8 hours to be safe.]
Su-sensei. [Unfortunately the pods cannot cure depression.]
It's alright. I understand. [Kashuu's fussing has been a little softer here than it often is back home, thanks to the emotional toll and the stress caused by this place, but Yasusada's still plenty used to being scolded as a form of caring, so it's fine.] I'll be more careful next time.
[He's not gonna be allowed on investigations anymore]
[there probably are people who will try to stop him from going on investigations, but as long as he's healed up, jiuqing is not going to be one of them.
she'd be pretty pissed if anyone tried to stop her from investigating!]
[A nod. He isn't needlessly stubborn--there's no sense, he thinks, in refusing to get treated and healed, especially with his connection to his vessel severed like it is. He will be good and get treated if I continue to roll nat1s.
But, with that established, they can talk about role stuff now.]
Emet-Selch said that her color was out of balance. So... I would assume that it must be.
[...she looks down.]
And her feelings have been... [she's not sure how to describe it] ...different, from what I'd expect from her. It worries me, since Kazunari behaved so differently after 9S's death.
Some of the evidence we found could have pointed to her as well...
They fought on Friday. And he vouched for the injuries on her that I hadn't seen before.
[...she frowns.]
But - Miss Hot Pants said that it felt like they had to fight. So... I wonder if perhaps one of the gumballs that Sir November used was to do that. Sir Garou is known to be volatile; perhaps when he realized that he wouldn't be able to stop her from killing him, he cursed them so that Sir Garou could get his revenge for him.
[Far be it from him to judge people's choices, but he can't help pointing out--]
Isn't that a little odd, though? They know we always look for new injuries... [Like. He gets it, especially as someone else who has lots of big emotions and gets them out by fighting, but even he's got enough of a braincell to realize that that would stand out.
If it truly was a compulsion, though, then that would explain part of it.]
It might've been a gumball. [He's not sure November was the revenge-seeking type, but Yasusada didn't know him terribly well, either.] But then, would her colors still be unbalanced now, if it was?
Do gumballs cause colors to be unbalanced...? I thought that was the refraction...
[in any case - it's very weird.]
The other thing is... we know there was a blue gumball at the scene where Sir November died. And Miss Hot Pants demonstrated that she was able to use marine this week.
A small, selfish part of him wants to beg Clarte to use their power on Kashuu, an attempt to protect him just a little longer--but he doesn't know if Clarte's power works that way, and he knows better than do something like that anyway.]

week four, sunday
yasusada is here, and so is jiuqing. i'm not sure if you were just smokescreening with "he's going to be good and heal his burns" when really we were going to have them talk about role stuff, so i don't want to be like "when he gets out of the pod, she's here," but. she's here!]
Sir Yasusada...
no subject
Su-sensei. [Unfortunately the pods cannot cure depression.]
no subject
...how are your injuries? [she looks to the pod] All better?
no subject
maybe,
But he nods.]
Yes, they're healed. [No pain in his emotions anymore, thankfully!] ...Sorry, again.
[Even though yesterday wasn't his fault, because he really didn't expect Charizard to still be hanging around???]
no subject
...you don't need to apologize - I was just worried.
[she smiles faintly]
Sorry for being cross with you.

Thank you, Sir Yasusada.

We're sure it's Hot Pants?

[Yasusada didn't notice, because he doesn't pay that much attention to strip check shenanigans. Or Garou shenanigans in general.]
no subject

no subject
I don't know. I've only used one, and it wasn't that kind of gumball.
[But, ah. That's pretty incriminating, yeah.]
It really seems like it's her, then.
no subject
So... I imagine Clarte will be choosing her next week.
no subject
[And that they're right.
A small, selfish part of him wants to beg Clarte to use their power on Kashuu, an attempt to protect him just a little longer--but he doesn't know if Clarte's power works that way, and he knows better than do something like that anyway.]
What about you? Have you decided?
no subject
[...]
So I guess we'll see what happens with that.
no subject
Even if you choose yourself, if you decide someone else could use it better, you could give it to them, right?
