Week 5, Thursday

[disilluded]

[Hi Cardia! He's knocking on your door to come check on you.

Did he walk all this way on a broken leg to do so?

You better damn well bet he did, skippy.]

[discardia]

[ And she's going to open the door, nice and bandaged and-- ]

Sousei?! Why--

[ WHY IS HE WALKING ON A BROKEN LEG ]

[disilluded]

I came to ascertain your status.

[Yep.

Just.

Roll with it.]

[discardia]

I'm-- resting, but--

[ ???!!!! ]

P-please come in and sit down.

[disilluded]

... Fine.

[If she insists! It's not like he enjoys pain, he just pushes past it.]

How are your injuries?

[discardia]

They're no longer bleeding.

[ OH GOOD. ]

And they're nothing compared to yours.

[disilluded]

This is not a competition of injuries.

[CARDIA...]

I am more used to handling such things. It is a relief to hear that your injuries are recovering, though, if slowly.

[discardia]

And it's a relief to know you're not dead.

[ HAAAAAAA. ]

I don't know what you went through, but there were at least a few opportunities on our end that could have gotten us killed.

[disilluded]

Hm... I suppose we avoided the majority of the ship in our case.

[It's your fault, Sousei.]

I am certain it was dangerous in various ways, however, even before we were attacked. It was a pointless waste of time.

[discardia]

Sousei...

... We did manage to get an additional way to protect the partnerless by succeeding, though.

[disilluded]

... I suppose there was at least one reasonable outcome from your efforts, then.

[He says that begrudgingly, though.

THEY GOT JACK SHIT.]

[discardia]

I'm glad there was. Sanji nearly got too distracted by the mermaids.

[ SORRY, SOUSEI. ]

[disilluded]

[Oh my god.]

... He is lucky you were there with him, it would seem.

[discardia]

I think we were both lucky. I fell into the first trap, after all.

[disilluded]

It was clearly designed to cause us trouble, so I would not feel too guilty for that.

[stupid CYOA BULLSHIT.]

[discardia]

That's true enough. Um, but there are healers, though... do you want me to see if I can find one?
