[Yoite is sitting in what is now his makeshift home. An old abandoned car he found somewhere where there isn't a lot of people. The one car door is missing; He's managed to hang a blanket up to cover the hole. He himself has a blanket pulled around him, seeming cold even though he's also wearing a coat and a turtleneck sweater.]

You require medical attention. I suggest contacting comm number olcountrydoc.

... I don't.

... I have medication...

Medication that is clearly ineffective. You should not risk exacerbating your condition by avoiding treatment.

This condition will worsen even if I get treatment.

[voice]

[oftwoworlds]

I do not believe that is possible.

It'll get better for a while. Then worse.

The physician that I referred you to has knowledge beyond the standard medical practices of this era. Regardless of your prior experiences, I encourage you to contact him. It is likely that whatever ailment you have has simply been misidentified.

It's not an illness. Treatment will only ease the pain for a while.

Then may I inquire as to the origin of this symptom?

... My powers.

[oftwoworlds]

Curious.

I have not previously heard of others' abilities causing them physical pain. If you will not consent to treatment, would you permit testing? If one were to identify what aspect of your powers causes this side effect it may be possible to avoid it entirely.

Same as I had back home.

A power that uses a fragment of life-force from the user as a means of attack. However, that fragment doesn't return. It keeps leaking out.

... Weakens the user. Takes away the senses.

... You are... A scientist? Or simply curious?

Fascinating. Surely, there must be a way to achieve better control over this ability. From what you describe, exhaustion seems a logical after-effect, however we should at least try to help lessen it.

Both. Prior to my arrival here, I served as the science officer aboard a Federation starship.

There isn't a way to do that.

... I see.

[voice/private]

[oftwoworlds]

Perhaps, but would it not behoove you to at least try? You should not have to suffer for your ability.
