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.

Oh. I'm sorry... my head's a little fuzzy right now.

But... thank you, Xion.

It's fine. I was sick once, and my head got really fuzzy too.

[She knows how it can get, though truth be told it'd been her first time ever being sick and her head had gotten much worse than "fuzzy" but... she'd gotten better so it isn't important.]

I hope you feel better soon.

Er, I was in the public school in town since my family couldn't really afford to send me to the city's private school.

[~~Pretend he says the name of the public high school here, because it isn't actually named oops.~~]

What about you--

Oh, geeze, I'm kind of lame, sorry. You're sick and I'm just asking you a bunch of stupid questions.

I'm Hanamura Yosuke, by the way.

[Oh no!]

...I could try to heal you, if you would like. I'm not certain if my power works on illnesses, but it may be worth trying.

That's alright. I can just make sure you've got what you need when you're awake. Maybe we could watch a movie or something? Still gives you a chance to rest.

[He does remember that time, actually, and his mind is still a little blown by it.]

I believe that depends on the doctor's personal discretion. Some may be willing to take house calls, while others simply like clinic work.

I can look into it and contact some local clinics or hospitals for their answer. In the meantime, is there anything you might need?

Oh. Thank you, senpai. I think Miki and my sister are bringing soup and stuff...

[ Company would be nice, though. ... but he wouldn't want her to risk getting sick, too! ]

[ Only once? That seems a little weird to Minato, but then again he... gets sick fairly regularly. ]

Thanks... I hope so, too. ... the tournament starts soon.

Of course, but I didn't know what you had ingredients for...

Do you have a fever reducer and decongestant?

Have you ever tried it on illness?

[ He's curious! Magic to cure his sickness would be awesome! But he worries that maybe it'll be like persona magic and not... really work on the flu. ]

[It's a little less odd when you've only been alive for two and half years, but it'll take a higher Social Link rank before she'll admit that part out loud.

At the mention of the tournament, her voice gets a little more subdued, even worried.]

Yeah, it is. [a beat] Are you entering?

Of course! Child's play. Technically I could make a potion that could knock out the fever altogether, but to be frank the side effects are worse than the disease.

That sounds nice. I like movies...

[ You can tell he's sick because he admitted to liking something! ]

Then it's settled. Want me to bring anything with me?

[Also, it's a sign of the apocalypse. Is Nyx being called down again?]

[ Minato nods, recognizing the name of the public school, at least. But he smiles faintly and shakes his head at Yosuke's backpedaling. ]

It's fine. Helps me stay awake for the moment.

My name's Arisato Minato, and it's nice to meet you, Yosuke-san. Ah, I went to Gekkoukan. [ That latter is added a little sheepishly in light of what Yosuke just said about his family not being able to afford it. ]

[ Minato shakes his head. Just bringing movies and company is good enough. ]

Maybe bring a couple movies with you you like.

[ Clearly they need to social link more, then! ]

Mm. I signed up. ... The earlier tournament was fun, though this one seems like it will get very serious...

[ A little bit of an understatement, but well... ]

Oh?

[ He's curious. He's never much liked medicine, but it's still interesting to know what medicines do... ]

Like what?

Oh... I'll ask Minako to bring some, since she's coming over... that sounds good. Thanks...

Let's just say spontaneously flushing out everything that causes ONE sort of disease has an unfortunate tendency to flush out other things in the process. Oh ho ho ho ho.

Yeah...

[That's one way of putting it.]

I don't think I was here for the last one but... I'll be going this time. Two of my friends and... [there's an odd pause] my older brother are entering. So maybe I'll see you there.

[As long as you're feeling better]

[She shakes her head.]

The only time we've ever needed to use it was for injuries.

All right. I'll see what I can do.

[He'll also bring ice cream, because he and Miki always have ice cream with their movie nights, and if your throat hurts, there's nothing better for it.]

Until then, rest and don't wear yourself out.

[~~Save that for museboxing, Snarky~~]

No problem! But oh, really? You sure?

[Well, he'll just grab a similar piece to Minato's! Woo hard candy. He doesn't even care about getting sick, and he'll plop down next to him.]

I didn't know what kind of manga to get you, so I grabbed some of the ones with cute covers!

Hmmm, in that case, you wouldn't need more.

What about medication, or even something to pass the time?
