video (and possible action)

[ video ]

[ Late Friday morning, Minato manages to coordinate his sluggish movements enough to start a video feed on his COMP. He'd honestly rather just ask this by text, but he's having difficulty focusing enough to type, and video is easier. He's looking pretty pallid, though his cheeks are flushed with fever and his eyes are a bit glazed, as he sniffs and shivers and blinks blearily at the camera. ]

Anyone know where to go to see a doctor? [ His voice is very froggy, and although he opens his mouth to say something else, he breaks off with a cough, and he turns the COMP away while he recovers, muffling his coughs into the crook of his elbow. ]

Ah... sorry. I also... wanted to know if the doctors here made house calls...

[ It's cold outside, and he has a fever and doesn't relish the thought of stumbling to a clinic on the other side of the city. ]

Thanks.

Like what?

[ He's kind of unsure... wouldn't an actual doctor be better? ]

[ He frowns slightly because look staying active is actually the problem here! ]

No... m'fine. Unless you have advil or something...

Oh, right, Yu's my best friend. I'm friends with Rise-chan too. We're all part of a group of Persona users known as the Investigation Team.

[~~Let's just say that and be good with it, if he didn't learn it from her he'd learn it in this thread anyway~~

So a few things stand out to him in that explanation, but most importantly-]

I used to live in Iwatodai then! I moved late-2010, actually. There were shadows in Iwatodai too? Did you guys also have Personas? That'd be an insane coincidence. [~~or just similar game design, Yosuke~~

And to think that he thought the residents of Inaba were oblivious to the strange stuff going on in town. He had no idea that there were Shadows in Iwatodai, let alone people who coul've been Persona users!]

Oh heavens, nothing too fancy. Just an old fashioned cash exchange, really. Although I MIGHT be convinced to give you a discount when you're well and can do a little monster hunting, hmm?

[She gives him a confident smirk]

No way! I'm as healthy as a horse! Bacteria will run away at the sight of me!..

...or wait? I think a cold is a virus actually...

...I've already got some frozen chicken stock in my fridge, I'll bring some over and heat it up with a few vegetables.

[Jiji?]

I think you need to shut up and go back to sleep.

[He sighs.]

You got any lemons and honey in your apartment?

Edited 2013-01-12 09:04 (UTC)

I can bring some of that with me. And make sure you're drinking fluids, too.

[As someone who's had a particularly nasty experience with a cold... well. She frowns worriedly. Was that what she'd looked like that one time...? If only she knew how to use that spell that Minnie had, but that was seriously seriously advanced White Magic, well beyond anything she'd ever cast.]

Is there anybody there who can help with getting you soup or something to drink, or things like that?

[Doctors may not make house calls, but you know who does? Ryoji Mochizuki.

Nurse Ryoji Mochizuki. Hardly a Nurse Ryoji Mochizuki. Almost as soon as he sees the post (or maybe even he was there the entire time, who knows with this kid) he's already heading on over, with a bag in hand.]

Are you alright, Minato-kun? I thought these would help. These are the kinds of things you get sick people, right? I tried to pick out the best I could find!

[He'll hand it on over! Manga, candy. Maybe soup, if Minato is lucky. Knowing Ryoji, though... probably not the case.]

Don't worry about it. You should be resting.

Want me to come over for awhile after I run? You could probably use some company, right?

My sister and -- [ There's a slight pause; is it okay to call Miki his girlfriend? Or... well, maybe he'd better not... ] another friend are coming by, I think.

[ He sniffs and muffles another cough before speaking again. ]

I'm sorry, I don't think I recognize your voice... if... we have met before, I apologize. If we haven't... ah, my name is Minato Arisato.

[ Meeting new people is always nice, even when he's sick. He probably won't do much more talking beyond this, though. At least not until he's had some tea. ]

~~[ Oh Nurse Mochizuki, oh~ give me some medicine...]~~

[ Minato is curled up in a blanket on the couch, fiddling with his COMP, and he looks up at Ryoji's entrance. He sniffs and blinks and nods before taking the offered bag and setting it on his lap to look through. ]

Ah... thank you, Ryoji.

[ No... no soup. But some of the candy seems to be hard candy that he can suck on, so he takes out a piece of that and pops it in his mouth before pulling out the manga. ]

... you should have some of the candy, too.

[ Since Minato doesn't really... have an appetite to speak of. He holds the bag out for Ryoji to pick whatever is his favorite out of the things he brought. ]

Mm. What medicine do you have, though?

I am. [ that's a lie ]

Thanks, Ne-ne.

Company would be nice, but... I don't want you to get sick, too.

[ Be healthier than him, senpai! ]

Don't worry about me. With the way I work out, I'll be able to stay healthy. Being sick and stuck by yourself isn't any fun. I'm sure Minako and Miki will be checking on you, too, but you don't want to hang out with girls the whole weekend, do you?

[Yes he does, Aki. Yes he does.]

Oh. Where did you go to school?

[ priorities, man.

But after a moment he seems to realize that was probably not the best question to just ask, but well, with fever having taken away much of his normal filtering process, what can you expect. ]

But ah... yeah, we did.

I don't know what I have... could be virus or bacteria...

But thanks... I'm sure it will be good.

Sleep sounds good.

No... no honey. No lemons anymore. Why?

[ He used the last one last week when making dinner. ]

For your throat. Cough enough and your throat gets pretty damn raw after awhile. It helps with that—clears it out and keeps the coughing down. Just need to add the lemon juice and honey to hot water. It does its job.

'm sure they've other things to do most of it ... like moving.

[ Which is to say that as nice as spending the whole weekend with family and another cute girl would be, he's pretty sure they won't spend the whole weekend with him, and so Akihiko would be welcome. ... though to be honest, Akihiko would just about always be welcome during the daytime. ]

I'll probably be asleep a lot, though...

[ Remember the three day storm he mostly slept through because of illness? ]

Oh you know, the standard. Defervescents, antihistimines, stuff that can help combat the bugs. Stuff like that. We potion makers WERE the original pharmacists, you know.

That's good.

[She can't imagine having dealt with being sick like she had been a year or so ago by herself.]

I'm Xion. I think... we might've talked once. It was a while ago, though.
