11th Wheel of Fate [Accidental Voice/Action]

[awakenedchaos]

[The feed starts off with a small thud: someone managed to knock the journal to the ground in her sleep. The actual image only shows the roof of a room, and the only thing that can actually be heard is an occasional pained whimper and, rarely, unintelligible, quiet mumbling that vaguely sounds like someone trying to mutter someone's name.

[Tsubaki wakes with a start thanks to that thud in the next room... and she's going to frantically get up and rush on over because Nu was in bad shape before whatever accident had just befallen her.

So. KNOCKING LOUDLY.]

Nu!?

[Action]

[awakenedchaos]

[...Eep. She didn't mean to wake you, Tsubaki! Really! And she'd go open the door, but... you know. Still not having recovered from that stab wound + lack of proper medical treatment + suddenly falling out of her bed = ...yeah. Not getting up for a while without help.

...Though considering she spoke - kind of, anyway - after that thud? She's probably still conscious, at least.]

[Action]

[cry_camellia]

[Short-lived obligatory knocking phase over. Now continuing to panic and proceeding to barge in.

...And, she sees that Nu has indeed fallen out of the bed.]

Oh no! Are you all right? [By which she of course means 'are you significantly more injured than before your fall?']

Let me help you! [Still panicking, she darts over to assess the damage and try to help Nu up.]

[Action]

[awakenedchaos]

[Good idea. Helping her out a little will definitely make it a bit easier for her to get up, at least, but... ow.

Tsubaki won't get an answer to that question right away, but rather after the silver-haired Murakumo unit's not stuck lying on the ground anymore. Even then, though, all she'll get is an almost imperceptible nod.

...Which may or may not be a lie, because ow. Though it's... kind of hard to tell if the pain's caused by the fall just now or if it's just the wound again. Um.]

[Kokonoe heard that over the journals. So she's making a few notes about your presense being confirmed.]

You're Nu aren't you?

[Written]

[awakenedchaos]

[ν-13's response is going to be a bit late, but she'll get around to answering eventually.]

...Who? [She doesn't recognize your voice, Kokonoe, so please excuse her for being a little cautious right now.]

[Voice]

[bellbelt]

Writing huh, whatever works for you. Allow me to introduce myself then, I'm Kokonoe, a scientist from Sector Seven.

So, are you the Murakumo unit or not?

[Written]

[awakenedchaos]

[Yep, written. She has her reasons.

And... Kokonoe? Hasn't she heard that name from someone before...? ...Somehow, she's getting the feeling she should be cautious about what she mentions.]

...Affirmative. [Though what Kokonoe asked isn't exactly a secret, so... whatever.]

[Written]

[awakenedchaos]

[Oh, she recognizes that voice. The guy that got attacked by a bird, right?

Again, her response's a bit late, but she'll get around to it eventually.]

...Nu is all right. [Not entirely true, but hey. The fall itself didn't do much harm, at least.]

[Written]

[awakenedchaos]

[Heh. ν-13 just doesn't want to speak to most people right now, that's all.]

...Nu fell. [Blunt, but... well, it is true.]

[Voice]

[not_meatbuns]

[Seems like all she's been doing lately is house calls. Here, have a doctor.]

Where are you? I can be along in just a few minutes.

[Voice]

[cry_camellia]

[Ah, Tsubaki remembers you... but this is no time for pleasantries!]

Thank goodness. We're in Room 22 of Community Building 3.

[Voice]

[not_meatbuns]

Not far, then... I'm on my way.

[Voice/Filtered]

[blackenedchaos]

[And strangely, that ow is worrying to the demon, but having noticed someone else who responded and that someone already volunteered to help, he slaps on a quick filter.] Are you doing all right now?

[Voice/Filtered 100%]

[awakenedchaos]

[And just as before, her response is going to be a little late - though this time, it's because she's upgrading that filter.]

Yeah, I'm fine. [That's a lie, and one that's easily betrayed by how weak her voice sounds... though that's not because of that fall just now, at least.]

[Voice/Filtered 100%]

[blackenedchaos]

[Good plan, Yuber lacks the attention span for perfect filters even if he actually technically could figure it out.

And he notices that weakness, but who is he to talk about lying like that, he'd do the exact same thing.] This isn't from when we fought each other, right?

[Voice/Filtered 100%]

[awakenedchaos]

[...Heh. Under normal circumstances, that would probably have earned him a giggle. Right now, though, she'll settle for a smile, even if it's a weak one.]

Of course not. That's healed by now. [And this time, she's actually telling the truth.]
