[Jet is lying in bed, looking pale, but there's a little color to his cheeks. His hair is lank and damp, eyes red-rimmed and puffy. A slight sheen of sweat on his forehead. There's an IV attached to his wrist, feeding clear fluids. He grins weakly at the camera.]

[A hoarse whisper] I'm... still alive...

((OOC: Why, yes, being asleep for over 72 hours

That's great. I hope you're doing well. You don't really look it...

[drifterforhire]

[smiles weakly]

Thanks.

You must be the nice one. Where's the other one?

[sunao_punch]

What are you talking about...?

[drifterforhire]

You know... the bratty one. Talks smack all the time.

I get it. He's sleeping now, right?

((OOC: I assume Sunao isn't aware of Ran's personality? See what I mean about Jet being a little loopy?))

[sunao_punch]

You're not being very specific.

Unless... You've met Ran, haven't you? ... I'm sorry.

((OOC: He knows about Ran, just prefers to deny his existence as much as possible.))

[drifterforhire]

Yeah, that one. He's a brat. But I guess he's okay, cuz he's part of you, right?

Did I miss much? They said I was asleep for three days.

[sunao_punch]

Unfortunately, he is. But trust me, I know how he acts.

Actually, I can't seem to remember what happened these past few days. And I woke up yesterday in a dress and bonnet. I've heard there was a virus, though.

[drifterforhire]

So, you don't sleep when he's awake? That's kinda weird.

That's what Karen said. Least one good thing about being in a coma is... you don't get virus'd!

[sunao_punch]

I do. That's why I can never remember what happened while he's at out. But I've... Spoken to him, in a way.

I wonder if that really stops the community from affecting you...

[drifterforhire]

Like how? Stand in front of a mirror and talk to yourself?

Well, I was asleep for three days and nothin' weird happened to me!

[sunao_punch]

Well, no. Inside my mind. That's where he lives. And this is starting to sound really weird.

That could have just been a coincidence.

[drifterforhire]

Lives inside your head space. What's it like inside? I bet there's a big comfy couch in there.

Coincidence is a part of fate! That's what Ginny always says!

[sunao_punch]

... A couch? And I've never actually seen inside; Ran just talks and I can hear him.

I suppose in a way those two could be related.

[drifterforhire]

Nyaaa... All this talking is making me sleepy.

[yawns]

Time to hit the hay... [video feed cuts out]
