WEEK 2.

[trustwellness]

WEEK 2 Adelina and Kyrie Ushiromiya are dead. Regardless of how you felt about them and whether or not you mourned their passing, life goes on. It seems the Wordsmith intends to make good on the rules he's left for you all. Saturday is given to regrouping and rest; on Sunday morning the clock chimes as it always has, but at least there are no bodies to find today. It seems you're safe for now. The night before wasn't necessarily a peaceful one, however; you'll probably feel a bit groggy when you wake up, and it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost... Either way, it seems there's nothing to do but move on - or, perhaps, move down. Another door in that holding area near the elevator seems to have opened up, leading into a corridor and a stairwell that seems to lead you somewhere beneath the dormitories, and eventually onto a new floor altogether. Go ahead and explore all you like; after all, you did well at completing your lessons this past week. APPRENTICES REMAINING: 28

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[oyashiromama]

A-auu auu auu... [A moan. Her detached sleeves have sunken lower on her arms, having come a little untied, and she's all on the ground in a heap before she starts to rub her head.

At least the wall's sturdy enough that she didn't make a hole with her horns?!]

'm fine, aah...

[introspects]

[ YOU DON'T SOUND FINE HANYUU

Orihime's going to try to help her to her feet, but Hanyuu doesn't seem 100% okay! She is very worried! ]

Do you want to go to the infirmary? We can see if there's pain medicine, and maybe an ice pack for your head?

[oyashiromama]

[She'll come up easily enough! ...with those sleeves hanging off her arms, oh she'll really need to redo those. Right now she's just rubbing her head and wobbling a little on her feet. Disoriented, but not too injured.]

I-I'm fine, really, it's just...aah, au, I'm not used to this feeling.

[introspects]

[ Oh, now that she can get a better view of those sleeves, she's now worried about those, too! ]

Did you--did you fall so hard that your sleeves ripped?!

[ OH BOY ] Oh, Hanyuu-san, this is serious! Let's go get you an ice pack for your head, okay?

[oyashiromama]

H-h-haaa...?! N-no, it was already like that, s-see, they're separate, separate! [She tries to frantically gesture to the strings at the top of them.]

H- auu, I- I would not mind...an ice pack. [They've always looked so nice and cool.]

[introspects]

Oh-! Well, then that's one less thing to worry about! Of course there's a sewing machine available now if we needed to repair that!

Alright, let's check in the kitchen for one in the freezer? If anything, we can just put some ice in some paper towels and use that, too!

[oyashiromama]

[This is a disaster.]

Aah... Are there not ones in the infirmary...? [...she genuinely is asking, she hasn't looked]

[introspects]

There might be? I don't know if there's a freezer there, though; there's pain medicine, if you don't mind taking that?

[oyashiromama]

Is there? ...isn't there? ...a-aah, I-I've never taken medication, though, I-I don't know how it could react.

[can demons take advil?]

[introspects]

...Oh...that's true.

[ That's going to be a problem. ]

Um, maybe the ice pack is safer. Let's just head to the kitchen!

[oyashiromama]

Yes, let's... [She'll just follow along, no sick wheelies for Hanyuu tonight.]

[introspects]

[ Off to the kitchen they go, then!

When they arrive, the first thing Orihime does it check in the freezer for an ice pack of any sort. There...doesn't appear to be anything like it. So! She'll do it the old-fashioned way and wrap some ice cubes in a paper towel before gently holding it to Hanyuu's head where the injury lies. ]

Let me know if it's not cold enough, or too cold, okay?

[oyashiromama]

[A-ah!! She lets out a little noise of surprise, because...it really is cold, she hadn't expected it to be so, and instinctively she reaches up to take the ice pack, but...Orihime's still holding it...]

I-it's fine right now, just a little unfamiliar, but not...bad. Haaa, thank you...

[introspects]

No problem! It'll get better, trust me... I guess this is your first time being in a human body, hm?

[oyashiromama]

Oh, actually no! Well... I had to take a human form when I was very young, so I suppose I couldn't say it's was a "human body," but...I was alive a very long time ago. Before ice packs.

[introspects]

Oh...! So ice packs must be a modern invention!

[ i can't believe they're having a thorough conversation about ice packs ]

What year was it before you wound up here, Hanyuu-san?

[oyashiromama]

More modern, yes! I've seen them used, but never felt one. It was...aah, I believed at first it was 1973, but it turns out it was 1983! At least, so far.

[introspects]

Oh, that's...more recent than I thought it would be.

[ Only 20-30 years behind her time! ]

It was 2003 for me. We're not as far apart as I thought...

[oyashiromama]

Aah! Well, to me that still seems a ways off. I can imagine your confusion, though. This is what I wore when I died, and that was late in the Heian period- ah, in the 900s.
