Xion ... [Hey, now.]

-- how do you feel?

[ private ] poppetry January 23 2011, 07:29:30 UTC

Ginko. [ her voice warms. this is an obviously welcome presence. ]

Not great, but ... I'll be okay. It's kind of strange, being able to feel sore again... anything that hurts. I'd kind of forgotten what it was like.

[ private ] one_green_eye January 23 2011, 07:32:13 UTC

Hm. [So that was the case...

gravely] Pain is pretty valuable.

[ private ] poppetry January 23 2011, 07:47:17 UTC

... yeah. [ the smile is gone. ] I don't like it, but ... I needed it. I just hope that's an experience I never have to repeat. [ for more reasons than one. ]

[ private ] one_green_eye January 23 2011, 08:17:23 UTC

[his jaw clenches slightly, for his own reasons. A muttered] Yeah. I hope so, too.

[but it smooths away again, after a moment-- and he has to smile at her question. Sanji asked the exact same thing, the first time they spoke.]

-- I see tea is a popular answer. [an eyebrow lifts] I have herbs for that, myself. [he'll even spare you his awesome sales pitch... >>;]

[ private ] poppetry January 23 2011, 08:23:33 UTC

[ some of the answers are making her remember that... she was just getting to know Sanji back then herself.

... herbs, you say. ] Herbs? Could they help me sleep? [ headtiiiilt. ]

[ private ] one_green_eye January 23 2011, 08:29:43 UTC

[srs nod] I have to know more than mushi, you know.

[ and a warm smile creeps in through his voice] I still have some saved from the summer, that haven't lost their potency. [he's never looked too much into synthetic medicine on the lighter end, even with the resources available]

-- that is, unless the sleeplessness is being caused by something specific...?

[ private ] poppetry January 23 2011, 08:41:51 UTC

Mushi... hehe, I guess so. [ she doesn't know much about the mushi, still. has heard tell, but not much more. she'll file that away, to ask about later.

before she can reply to his offer -- one for which she is grateful! -- he asks that question.

he's gotta ask that question, of all questions. of course he does. there's a pause on her end too long to be natural. ] ... I usually can't sleep because there's a lot on my mind.

[ private ] one_green_eye January 23 2011, 08:45:48 UTC

Ahh. [a hum, and a rueful curve to that smile]

That ailment seems to be as common as the cold, in this place-- and just as stubborn to cure.

[ private ] poppetry January 23 2011, 08:51:36 UTC

[ quiet, for a moment. for whatever reason ... it feels like she could trust Ginko. but at the same time ... yeah, double checking this filter, taking a deep breath, and-- ]

Ginko, if I tell you something -- a secret -- can you promise not to tell anyone? Especially not Sanji. He'll get really mad.

[ private ] one_green_eye January 23 2011, 09:01:46 UTC

[He blinks, faintly surprised-- but nods just as quickly. Because sweetheart he's seen Sanji get mad on your behalf in the past, and it's something he's quite willing to prevent...

Simply-] Of course.

[ private ] poppetry January 23 2011, 09:05:58 UTC

[ well-- that's why she trusts him. she knows he knows what Sanji's anger is like ... and what it'd mean.

her voice, though, is very quiet when she speaks. ]

... I got in a fight. [ laughs, the sound of it sad and a little hollow. ] A bad one. I got all cut up... we healed a lot of it, but my arms still hurt. The pain was really ... bad. I don't know why. [ shakes her head. ] Even without the pain, I know I'll be thinking about it all night. That's why I asked what I did.

[ private ] one_green_eye January 23 2011, 09:14:30 UTC

[his first thought to this is immediately]

-- was it someone who had been trying to hurt you?

[ private ] poppetry January 23 2011, 19:15:57 UTC

No, no, I ... actually, I went after him. I didn't even have a weapon. ... I wasn't thinking. [ obviously. says that last line in kind of a mumble. ]

[ private ] one_green_eye January 23 2011, 20:36:00 UTC

[raaaised eyebrow. Did you, now? -- why does he feel like this is a lovers quarrel.

That thought aside.] Did you get healed up properly? [yes, he heard "a lot of it"-- but he is a mushishi and he is emphasizing "properly" B| ]

[ private ] poppetry January 23 2011, 21:45:55 UTC

[ because you are annoyingly perceptive, mushishi. considering that's pretty much exactly what it was. ]

Um... we tried, but... [ short answer: no. ]
