[Action; 504 Ricardo Street]

[Chrona is standing in the bathroom, looking in the mirror and poking her nose. It's bent at a strange angle, and the swelling is dark, nearly black. She winces every time she touches it.]

I can't fix it... it hurts. I don't know how to deal with this...

[Attempted filter from Medusa; Voice]

[Well here's a voice

Comments

aaaaah I've been meaning to tag you at some point forever XD

[buildstherobots]

You have to set it and get it splinted. What happened to your face?

[hell_inmyhead]

... H-How?

[Avoiding the question? Chrona? Naaaah.]

[buildstherobots]

It's dangerous to do yourself. Why can't you go to the hospital?

[hell_inmyhead]

The drones are really creepy.... I don't like dealing with them.

[buildstherobots]

[Well, Dist can't argue with that. He prefers avoiding drones too.]

Well, I... suppose I could do it for you.

[What? He installed his own fake eye, and that had hurt a lot. Clearly this qualifies him to perform actual medical procedures.]

[hell_inmyhead]

... R-Really? Um... Thank you.

[Sob Chrona what are you getting yourself into...]

[buildstherobots]

Oh, it's no problem at all. You'll see, I'm incredibly generous.

Where do you live?

[hell_inmyhead]

[Oh man Chrona can practically hear that smirk. Second thoughts; she has them!]

504 Ricardo Street...

[buildstherobots]

[Hey, he means well! Really! And it can't be that hard; it's just making the bones go back together. Or cartilage, in this case.]

Excellent. I'll be there shortly.

[hell_inmyhead]

[Waiting. SO NERVOUSLY....]

[buildstherobots]

[True to his word, it's not long before there's a knock at the door.]

[hell_inmyhead]

[The door opens just a little, and Chrona peeeeeks out from the crack. Oh god this guy looks really weird NERVOUSNESS GROWING...]

H-Hello...

[buildstherobots]

[Dist tilts his head to the side to peek into the house, moving to speak, then pausing and staring.

She looked like him. Okay, tiny him back in Keterburg, but still, there was a resemblance there. After a moment or two he blinked, then nodded.]

...Hello.

[hell_inmyhead]

[Chrona steps back to let him in, looking around nervously. Johan and Ryoko aren't around, and she's pretty sure Fate is busy, so...]

Um... s-so what are you going to do...?

[buildstherobots]

[Dist steps inside and shuts the door, suddenly nervous. He was confident when he was on his way over, but now he really doesn't want to screw it up. He leans down, taking her face in his hands and tinting it up as he peers at her nose.]

I'm just going to realign it so it heals in the right place. It will heal if you leave it alone, but it'd stay crooked.

[hell_inmyhead]

[Chrona flinches, and it takes pretty much everything to fight the urge to pull away. She's still not good with the whole... "people touching her" thing.]

Okay... i-it's not going to hurt too much, will it?
