Summary: Catch-All for the Break


A - The Doctor is out [Network]

I will not be meeting with clients in person until further notice. If you must make an inquiry for some medicine, use the journal to contact me. I will let you know when it's ready to be picked up.

-Disciple

B- A nightly stroll in the forest

[Anyone who happens to be wandering around or living in the forest, might hear a disturbance during the nighttime. It doesn't occur every night, but when it does, it sounded like someone was cutting down the trees. There's also a low rumbling like thunder that occasionally accompanied the sound afterwards, like a rhythmic thumping. Looking into the source, they will find themselves at the edge of the Index. The ground appeared unstable, with trees uprooted and large boulders that have been split into smaller pieces scattering about the area.

This warzone was only found along the edge of the Index, and every few nights, a new area would turn into a disaster area. If someone manages to catch the person in the act, it turns out to be the Disciple, or was it the Disciple? The low rumbling noise was from him ramming trees into the barrier or throwing boulders at it. Whatever he could pick up and throw, which was almost anything, he was directing them at the barrier. A few times he was crazy enough to punch the barrier.] I need...to go... [If you manage to get in close enough, you can hear him mumbling about going somewhere. It doesn't seem like he's quite all there himself. Are those pajamas he's wearing?]

[This post is for the entirety of the break, so feel free to poke me on Discord or silentdrifterz if there's something else you want to play out instead or make your own starter!]

That we're both fine. She was worried.

[chippedsoul]

[Both of them. He's sure it's just one of them.] Well, I can see the forest clearing up just ahead.

[It's really late at this point. There's definitely nothing open or a soul around. The only lights visible are from the street lamps.]

[hatesviolence]

[.....To be fair, Kotori did only really ask about him, but he's sure Kotori is also worried about Disciple. Just didn't really spend enough time explaining everything.]

Must be getting close to town...but guess it's a lot later than I thought. [Only places open would be taverns, and he doubts Disciple would want to deal with that.] Let's just find a doctor. There's usually a late night one open somewhere.

[chippedsoul]

[He tenses a little.] It's just a scratch. [Does he really have to?]

[hatesviolence]

[Shizuo is just going to give him a look.

Although it is doubling as a look over. If it really is just minor he'll let it go... But if there's a sign of something more serious, he won't.]

[chippedsoul]

[There really is just that one cut across his stomach that's healed at this point thanks to Hyde's healing factor and the potion. The other injuries were self inflicted, when Hyde grabbed and broke Roxas' swords to use as daggers. They're just red marks in his hands now.]

Really...I'm fine and can handle this myself. I'm just tired and hungry.

[hatesviolence]

[There is so much doubt and skepticism right now.....





........But he just sighs.]

Fine. I'll take you back to your place. If you have food there I can probably make something. Just don't expect much.

[chippedsoul]

. . . [He makes a face as if a child is being forced to eat his vegetables. It's just Shizuo, he's gone out of his way to help him plenty of times, but the idea of someone doing things for him still makes him uncomfortable. He takes in some air after some contemplation.]

All right. [It's fine. If it's Shizuo it's fine.] Shizuo.

[hatesviolence]

Hm?

[Just looks at him at hearing his name.]

[chippedsoul]

Your question from earlier, asking if I trust you. I. . .I just need some time.

[hatesviolence]

[....Ah.

Shizuo is silent for a moment before nodding.]

All right.

[He's honestly not expecting that much, but... Well, that's better than a straight no.]
