8 - Accidental Audio / Action?

[knowsvinewhip]

[There's a soft gasp. The otherwise comatose body stirs. He's bone pale, and in a good deal of pain, but he's alive. This time. And he's in an unfamiliar pod.]

[He lifts a shaking hand, studying it. The other, badly damaged arm doesn't move. He speaks, mostly to himself, in a hoarse, tired voice.]

Still not Hell, I see...

[Hakkai clears his throat.]

... I'm not certain where it is I've ended up. If someone could please fill me in...? And I... wouldn't say no to some water, either.

[SUCCESS!!]

Sort of, I was in Doctor Kloe's house when she brought you there for treatment. You were only awake for a few seconds.

[He's not surprised you don't remember him.]

[knowsvinewhip.livejournal.com]

Ah... well.

[He smiles, even if it's only audio.]

... it's a pleasure to meet you.

[the-brokenhorn.livejournal.com]

You too.

[Polite boys are polite.]

Are you feeling better?

[knowsvinewhip.livejournal.com]

Mm, I suppose being awake and alert counts as feeling better, doesn't it?

[the-brokenhorn.livejournal.com]

It does. Your wounds were really bad.

[And probably still are.]

[knowsvinewhip.livejournal.com]

Ahh... yes. I've lost the use of one arm for the time being.

[the-brokenhorn.livejournal.com]

[THAT IS NOT THE DEFINITION OF FEELING BETTER.

Yeah, Chrono remembers the state of Hakkai's arm.]

Will it heal?

[knowsvinewhip.livejournal.com]

[He chuckles softly.]

It should be useful again eventually.

The rhyming is unintentional I swear

[the-brokenhorn.livejournal.com]

That's good. I'm glad.

[It looked really bad.]

ahaha

[knowsvinewhip.livejournal.com]

As am I. It would be fairly problematic to do chores with only one arm for the rest of my life.

[the-brokenhorn.livejournal.com]

[Oh, Chrono knows all about chores.]

Yeah, it would be.

[Look you made him laugh.]

[knowsvinewhip.livejournal.com]

[Hakkai laughs softly, weakly.]

I'm glad someone is of the same opinion.

[the-brokenhorn.livejournal.com]

[He doesn't like the sound of that.]

You still sound very weak. You should probably be resting.

[And here he is keeping you up.]

[knowsvinewhip.livejournal.com]

I haven't left the bed, I assure you... Though... perhaps some sleep would be in order.

[the-brokenhorn.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry for keeping you awake. I'll leave you alone now. Please get some rest.

[knowsvinewhip.livejournal.com]

Oh, please, don't apologize. I'm happy to have met you while conscious.

[the-brokenhorn.livejournal.com]

[How else does one meet people?

Chrono may have just been beaten when it comes to politeness.]

It was nice meeting you too. I hope you get better soon.

[He hopes you heal period. He's seen humans die from wounds less serious then yours.]

[knowsvinewhip.livejournal.com]

I'll certainly do my best.
