[With all the information coming out, it's apparent to Keith and Lance that one big elephant in the room has been ignored: the infection among the recruits themselves. Keith is tired and on edge, as he needs nothing to do with the infection to be cranky. Lance is jittery, too. But they have to talk about that elephant before it gets too late.

And for some of them, it might be. That's what Keith is really afraid of right now.]


Hey. It's Keith.

and ya boy, lance! [Because things are already pretty doom and gloom as it stands, and maybe things could use a little lightening up? Or something...

It’s a little more difficult to differentiate between people in a group message like this, but it’s a better idea to get something down on text in case they need to refer to it later, and anyone who knows either of the boys can probably tell them apart pretty easily through diction alone.]


we know your mind-phones have been pretty busy lately, but theres something keith and i wanted to talk to you guys about.

Before we get a move on in attacking Zymandis' agent, we need to look at our own numbers. A lot of us are sick. Maybe less than I thought. Or maybe more. Either way, we have to know who's sick and make a plan to help our own. And I'm serious about HELPING. Not putting someone out of their misery or any of the other stupid stuff I've heard from some of this team. We need to stop this disease. We need to help our own. Once everyone's BETTER, we'll make a plan for what to do next as a team.

[It's harsher than necessary but likely less harsh than how it might be normally, given Keith's frequently frustrated tone of voice. Text mitigates some of it, even if his frustration definitely does become CAPITAL LETTERS.

Lance, meanwhile, is quite eager to gloss over that sharp reprimand because seriously guys — kumbaya.]


yeeeeeah, so — helping! getting a head count is definitely ideal. we cant afford to be silent on this and we definitely CANT be alone right now, cuz every one of us affected and on our own can be a huge risk to everyone here. so we were thinking… since the city shut it down, we can use the middle school. those of us infected can stay there while we wait for our people to find that cure. like a quarantine safe house.. i know its not ideal, but its something. especially for those who dont have any other contingency plans.

[A pause. Well. May as well get the ball rolling, right?]

ill be there.

( ooc; p.s. there is an information plotting post for the quarantine space! )

[Texting, because Nyuu's not sure if she can speak properly through her tears.]

Lucy left me a note saying that we've been infected. She said she could already tell because her other hands won't come out.

Urahara-san has been doing everything he can to help me, but I don't want to put him in danger, so I think I will join you at the school. I still have my syringe, too. I can bring it with me in case someone will have to use it on me in the future.

It is really okay to be doing those things?
We don't have to be locked up and isolated from each other the whole time?
scarredhorns: (Nyuu#well...)

[personal profile] scarredhorns 2017-03-10 09:01 pm (UTC)(link)
That does sound MUCH better than just waiting for what's to come. It makes things seem a little less scary.
I'll try to be brave.
scarredhorns: (Looking for shells)

[personal profile] scarredhorns 2017-03-20 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
You really think so?

I know you can't see me right now, but the truth is, all I've been doing is crying, so I don't think I've been doing great at all...

Hey.

We're gonna make sure you an' Lucy are taken care of. And you can bet I'm gonna be visitn' you, too.
scarredhorns: (Wah I want to go home!)

[personal profile] scarredhorns 2017-03-06 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[There's a lot of sniffling on the other end and her voice is warbling.]

I-I know, I'm just so scared!
fateality: (thoughtful)

[personal profile] fateality 2017-03-06 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Damn. She can't see it, but hearing her voice like this is definitely breaking his heart.]

An' it's all right to be scared.

Do you want someone now?
scarredhorns: (Am I really killing?)

[personal profile] scarredhorns 2017-03-07 08:14 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not far along, so it should be fine as long as you remember to keep your distance. I'll be wearing a flu mask as well...

[While she is worried about infecting others, she also wants one last chance to enjoy other people's company before it becomes too dangerous for them to be near her.]

Ah, that's right! [Something's jogged her memory.] Lucy wanted me to give you something in case she wasn't awake to do so herself.
fateality: (another shitty joke)

[personal profile] fateality 2017-03-07 01:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure. We can play it safe.

[Lucy has something for him? That's admittedly surprising.]

Then I guess I'd better come by. Where can I find you, bright eyes?
scarredhorns: (Nyuu smiling)

[Nyuu shares the address of the house where she and Urahara have been living for the entirety of the mission. Before the connection is broken, she asks TF to please be careful, knowing how dangerous the streets are now.

When she hears the knock that signals Twisted Fate's arrival, she answers the door, wearing the flu mask just as she mentioned before. Though there aren't any tears in her eyes now, she must have been crying for some time judging by how red and puffy her eyes are. Still, there's a slight smile in her eyes upon seeing Twisted Fate. She's even wearing the ribbons that she bought from the pawn shop. Why did that seem so long ago...?

Nyuu bows her head.
]

Welcome to our home, TF-san. Please make yourself comfortable.
fateality: (a dapper fellow)

[personal profile] fateality 2017-03-09 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
[On his own, avoiding danger on the streets comes easy enough for him. At the very least, he can keep that promise.

Seeing Nyuu as she is right now, it's hard to not see the redness of her eyes, how much she must have cried. Neither her nor Lucy deserve this. Sonia doesn't. Maybe none of them do, but that's the amount he can think about right now.

He bows his head faintly in return, tipping his hat.]


I appreciate it, Nyuu. Comin' in now.

[The riverman strolls in, removing his hat.]

Those ribbons really suit you.
scarredhorns: (Teehee)

[personal profile] scarredhorns 2017-03-09 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
[After shutting the door, she closes her eyes once she's facing TF, a sign that his comment made her happy. Both hands rise up to feel at the glittery material.]

I wouldn't have found these if not for you, TF-san. You have a good eye.

[She's not wearing it right now, but the ribbons match with her work dress perfectly. Then her bright pink hair does well in bringing out the ribbons' dark blue color.]

I am definitely going to keep them.

[If she survives this ordeal...

No, no, she shouldn't think like that. She has faith that Audentes will find a cure. It's just hard knowing what's in store for her as the virus continues to take over her mind and body.

This means that neither of you will be dangerous.

That's a good thing.
scarredhorns: (Am I really killing?)

[personal profile] scarredhorns 2017-03-06 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I agree. I don't know what we could have done if Lucy could still use them.

She thinks it's the encephalitis that's doing it.
secondnature: (i can do it i can-)

[personal profile] secondnature 2017-03-07 07:45 am (UTC)(link)
They won't act out when you get a cure, will they?

[He doesn't know if she even knows that, but it's worth asking about.]
scarredhorns: (Looking for shells)

[personal profile] scarredhorns 2017-03-07 07:56 am (UTC)(link)
I'm afraid that is a question Lucy would be better suited to answering. I'm not entirely sure how they work.
secondnature: (am i pretty)

[personal profile] secondnature 2017-03-07 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
This is exactly why I wanted you to be more aware of what was going on when she was in charge.
scarredhorns: (Am I really killing?)

[personal profile] scarredhorns 2017-03-08 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry, Keith-san. I truly can't remember what happens when she's awake.

Urahara-san has been trying to help me communicate with her directly, but we haven't had any success so far. I've been using the notes, but she keeps dodging the questions regarding the hands.
secondnature: (ok this is weird)

[personal profile] secondnature 2017-03-09 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, well, she's about as pleasant as ... me, so I'm not surprised.

Maybe THIS will be the thing that finally gets her talking.
scarredhorns: (Nyuu#shy)

[personal profile] scarredhorns 2017-03-10 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
You don't seem so bad, Keith-san.

What makes you say that?
Lucy seems pretty stonewalled to me. She keeps telling me that there's no need to know how to use the hands and that I should only focus on being happy. I still want to learn, though, even though the idea scares me.
