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.

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?

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.]

'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? ]

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.]

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

Maybe bring a couple movies with you you like.

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.

[ Minato smiles faintly and nods. ]

I'll rest. See you later, Aki-senpai. [ He sniffs and mumbles something about taking a nap before cutting out.

Don't worry, though. He'll probably be sort of awake again when Akihiko drops by! ]

[Later on in the day, once Minato's had a few hours to nap, Akihiko knocks lightly against the door of his apartment.]

You awake, leader?

[ Fortunately, Minato actually is! He's wrapped up tight in a sweatshirt and a blanket, while he stares at a kettle in the kitchen, waiting for it to boil. At the sound of knocking, he looks up, blinking a few times to focus himself. ]

Ah - it's unlocked.

[ He does his best to call out, though he winds up in a coughing fit after that, so ... let's hope Akihiko heard? ]

[He hears it well enough, and goes ahead to let himself in, with a couple of DVDs tucked under one arm as well as a bag with two containers of ice cream in his free hand. Some people say soup is the way to go. Akihiko and Miki respectfully disagree. Ice cream heals all wounds.

He frowns at the coughing fit as he closes the door behind him, shaking his head.]

That sounds awful. What can I get you?

Sorry...

[ Minato shifts and shrugs further under his blanket ]

'm just waiting for water to boil

What the heck are you apologizing for?

[He shakes his head a second time, this time in disbelief, walking into the kitchen to stick the ice cream in the freezer before returning to where Minato's bundled up.]

I'll keep an eye on the water for you. What were you going to make with it?

[ He isn't quite sure why he apologized either - just that he felt bad for being sick and making his friends worry. But Akihiko is busy putting ice cream away, so Minato doesn't explain. Instead, he just watches his friend. ]

Tea...

[ There's a mug next to the stove and a tea bag in it already. ]

I'll take care of it. Want anything in it?

[As if on cue, the whistle on the tea kettle goes off, and Akihiko turns towards the stove to tend to it with an almost surprising efficiency, considering with the way he eats, most people would assume he'd never seen the inside of a kitchen.]

[ He shakes his head and -- watches Akihiko with a little surprise. But it's a nice kind of surprise. He's glad he doesn't have to really hover, so he slumps back over to the couch, assuming things will be in good hands. ]
