He might hear heavy breathing, and then a scream.

[explosive_runes]

Ah, that got a reaction.

"Yujinn!"

Vaarsuvius's eyes started to glow and s/he ran towards the scream, prepared to whip out a fireball at a moment's notice.

[liesbysmiles]

Yujinn is curled on his side on the ground, hugging his arms around his ribs.

[explosive_runes]

Oh boy, not again.

Vaarsuvius grimaced, feeling oddly strongly about hir concern for hir friend, and knelt by him, resting a hand on his shoulder. "Yujinn, are you damaged? Speak quickly."

[liesbysmiles]

"It's what he put inside me, I can hear him calling."

[explosive_runes]

Well, at least it wasn't immediately fatal, right? Right?

Vaarsuvius slid an arm under him, pulling him into a sitting position. "Calling to do what?"

[liesbysmiles]

Yujinn shuddered, putting his hands to his head. "He's telling me to hurt people. I can't stop it..."

[explosive_runes]

Vaarsuvius had a distinctly bad feeling about this.

"Then I sincerely apologize, my friend." The elf rested hir hand on his shoulder again. "Hold Person."

Paralysis wouldn't be fun for Yujinn, but it'd give Vaarsuvius time to think of a spell to help him.

[liesbysmiles]

Yujinn is shocked, and in a better mental state he would understand the reason for that.

Now however, he was in a state of panic, since the Earl had paralyzed him before inserting the piece in the first place - not that he could move.

[explosive_runes]

"I am not going to harm you. I spared you the struggle of controlling yourself."

Vaarsuvius slipped into business mode, arching an eyebrow and leaning Yujinn's body against the wall, frowning in thought.

"Pain. That is what he uses against his subjects. Pain and psychology. Constitution governs one's ability to withstand pain, Wisdom one's ability to resist mental force..."

S/he picked the spells s/he needed.

"Owl's Wisdom. Bear's Endurance."

S/he hoped that Yujinn would be able to handle it better after those spells wore off, because they wouldn't last long.

Then s/he dispelled the paralysis.

[liesbysmiles]

Yujinn was still breathing heavily and shaking. "Th-thank you. Whatever you did. It-it helps."

[explosive_runes]

Vaarsuvius had to resist the urge to bite hir lip. Concern. Concern that was much out of the normal reach of concern for friends was flaring up inside of hir.

"It will not last for a long time, Yujinn. We must find out how to remove it, or else think of a strategy to lessen its effects to provide us more time."

I suppose Ishtar should come sometime

[liesbysmiles]

"A-Allen said he knew something about it. Maybe, he can-can help."

When?

[explosive_runes]

Why did s/he have the impulse to push his hair out of his face?

"Allen who? I will contact him, but first, you need to be put in a room. You need someplace to rest while we try to think."

Ishtar would be looking for him, and she can go find Allen for them

[liesbysmiles]

"W-Walker. Allen Walker. K-knows."

He just wants to lean into V right now. S/he feels nice.

Then she should drop in soon. :3

[explosive_runes]

Vaarsuvius slid hir arm under his arms and around his back, helping him up into a stand slowly.

Why was s/he paying such close attention to his heart beating against hir? Why did... oh, it was probably an experiment, s/he had no idea.

"Then I will find him. Let us get you a room. Are you comfortable with a lock?" In case you can't be restrained in any other way.
