Fourteenth Storm

[capnteebee]

No gardening for me today...and I'd rather not have visitors if at all possible. I need to rest.

(( Yup, for the first time since he came here, Ukitake's illness is acting up. Feel free to hear his coughing and hacking if you are in the area ))

... Oh? Are you all right?

[inukitake]

I'll be alright so long as I get my rest. It's nothing I haven't dealt with before.

[written]

[wise_maiden]

Hm. If you say so...

[written]

[inukitake]

Wow, that took less than I thought it would. Usually people are so stubborn about it.

[wise_maiden]

Considering I don't have all of the information, and that I'm hardly in any position to be able to assist anyway at the moment... all I can ask you to do is rest, I suppose.

[written]

[inukitake]

And rest I shall. Thank you.

[written]

[wise_maiden]

You're welcome.

If it should become... worse, however, make sure that you get someone to see you.

[written]

[inukitake]

I will be certain to do so.

[wise_maiden]

... Good.

[inukitake]

Is something on your mind, Sage-san?

[written]

[wise_maiden]

... Yes, although we can talk about it after you rest.

[written]

[inukitake]

I'm not so bad off that I can't have a conversation, you know. Besides, you might be waiting awhile, so if you want to talk, we can do so now.

Mn...

Ah it's -- it's nothing, really. I just thought I would ... well, thank you for your aid last week. I apologize is I was difficult to deal with, in that situation.

... Now go rest.

[inukitake]

You need not thank me, Sage-san. It was no trouble to help you. In fact, I rather enjoyed the time. Gave me a sense of purpose...

[written]

[wise_maiden]

I... see.

[inukitake]

Hmm?
