[ The SFC clatters to the ground on its side and the feed switches on just in time to see a figure in a stark white suit stumbling forward. Of course, his white isn't immaculate as it used to be. There are catches of dust and dirt on it and the doctor is heaving, catching his breath as he leans against a tree. His back is turned to the fallen SFC

[ hay. Integra's smokin' a cigar and chilling, although she does look concerned. She's got not a clue of what the hell just HAPPENED to you, but... ]

Are you quite alright?

[ Video ]

[xblood_lusting]

A slight mishap on my part but yes. Never better.

[ He's lighting a cigarette of his own, totally calm, leaning against a tree. ]

[bastaaaaaards]

...You're sure you're alright?

[xblood_lusting]

Carelessness got the better of me.

[ And he takes a drag, staring at the sky above. ]

[ Video ]

[bastaaaaaards]

Mm. You must be more careful, then.

[ She relaxes a bit -- he's alright, and that's what matters. ]

[xblood_lusting]

Of course. I shall be more vigilant in the future, rest assured.

[ Hm. Concern. Well that was new. Welcome, certainly... but new. ]

[bastaaaaaards]

Very good, then. How have you been?

[ She takes a drag off of her cigar, before flicking the ashes in an ashtray -- from the looks of it, she's sitting outside somewhere. ]

...For lack of a better term, preoccupied.

[ He taps the cigarette against the tree before slipping it back into his mouth. In his opinion, he looks TERRIBLE. ]

And yourself? I take it you've been rather well?

[bastaaaaaards]

I see.

[ She'd have to agree there -- he looks like hell, but she's not going to mention that. Lord knows there have been times where she's had that exact tired, haggard look about her. ]

Yes, thank you. I have been... attempting to relax.

Chamomile tea, I've found does wonders for calming nerves.

[ A small smirk as he pulled himself from the tree. ]

Has anything worked for you, perhaps?

[bastaaaaaards]

Ah, yes... I do enjoy chamomile on occasion. However, as of late I've found that writing down various battle strategies has helped greatly.

[ She chuckles a bit -- such a thing was usually Walter's job, but really... he wasn't here, and it was slowly dawning on her just how much she relied on her butler. ]

You certainly have interesting hobbies, Sir Integra.

[ Somehow, this doesn't surprise him but it's still a weird way of relaxing. ]

[bastaaaaaards]

I want to make sure my ducks are in a row when I go home, you see.

[ She chuckles, finishing off her cigar. ]

[xblood_lusting]

[ A light chuckle. Feeling better already, the damned doctor was. Ah, Integra. You make things better. ]

Assuring yourself of a stable future?

[bastaaaaaards]

[ She tries~. ]

Something like that, yes.

[xblood_lusting]

An admirable trait, if I may say so...
