[selfdeluded]

[anyone wandering through the farther corners of the east wing today might very well come across a spilled bottle of pills in one of the hallways, though at least one-fourth of it's original contents seem to be missing. lost in the cracks under the doors, perhaps? who could say

[Normally Chomesuke wouldn't bother with something like this, but she's got the idea that Cross might overdose on aspirin or something stupid during a major hangover, so she follows the trail to the end and peeks in the doorway.]

A-Allen?...

[selfdeludes]

[he twitches a little, feeling the Akuma nearby, but thank god, those pills keep it from properly affecting him. no real pain, just a twinge, enough to keep him away but no pain. Allen almost smiles, even if he doesn't look over at her.]

...Hello again.

[akumaindisguise]

[She's finally learned which you are and already hesitates coming any closer.]

Are you okay, cho? There are pills everywhere...

[selfdeluded]

[honestly, this would probably be one of the few chances she would really have to get any closer to him, if she wanted to. but he's not about to tell her that.]

...I'm fine.

[akumaindisguise]

You sound quiet. Am I hurting you? Should I go away, cho? Are you sick? Should I get a nurse, cho?

[selfdeluded]

Actually... Best I've felt in weeks.

[he lifts an arm - not the one over his eyes, he's keeping that one there - and gives her a slightly dismissive wave of the hand.]

It's fine. You're fine. No... nurses.

[akumaindisguise]

[She steps in slowly and then quietly walks on over to that couch and sits down in front of it.]

Are you having a nap, cho?

[selfdeluded]

Yeah... kind of.

[his fingertips twitch lightly when she comes over, but otherwise, her presence doesn't seem to bother him too much for now. just... no touching. that would be a very bad thing to do.]

[akumaindisguise]

[Since he seems calm, but... looks sick so she reaches over to place a hand on his forehead. Not threatening, just concerned.]

Are you hot?

[selfdeluded]

[akjghdakjh k-kind of moving quickly away - sitting up, maybe, he'd honestly topple the couch over if he had to - in an attempt to avoid being touched.]

Don't!

[akumaindisguise]

[She jumps back a bit, raising her other arm defensively.]

Sorry! I didn't mean to touch you, cho! I wont do it again!

[selfdeluded]

[Allen really has no idea what would happen if she had actually manage to touch him, but even with the pills, he's just not willing to risk it. not when without them, just being near an Akuma practically split his skull open. he had nothing against Chomesuke, but he just... he was kind of scared what would happen.]

It's... It's fine. [except. sob. he feels a migraine coming on despite the pills and that just makes him want to curl up in a corner. he was so close to finally getting some decent sleep...]

[akumaindisguise]

[She sighs, feeling bad. She's never had anyone like this she couldn't go near before... Its upsetting.]

I'll help you gather up the pills so you don't have to, cho.

[She finds the bottle and then starts crawling around picking up all the little pills and popping them inside.]

[selfdeluded]

...Ah-- Thanks, I guess.

[ffff not... moving to get any closer to her, at all, sorry. he's actually debating getting up from the couch to move away.]

[akumaindisguise]

[After picking up all in room she places the bottle against him on the couch.]

There... Take more if you need to, cho... I should go away so you can get some good sleep and rest... I'm sorry for bothering you, cho. I was just a little concerned.

[selfdeluded]

...It's fine. [he kind of edges away from her when she sets the bottle beside him again, avoiding as much contact as possible, before offering a slightly strained and overly polite smile.]

Don't worry about it. [really. don't. he thinks he'd get along fine with Chomesuke under different circumstances, but right now, he just really doesn't want her to stick around.]
