It's been a while since I've gotten sick but.... this isn't good at all. And I can simply see who's fault it is.

All I can... say.. is worry about what's going on now... We can't stop them...

[He shrugs]

[ Karen's voice becomes soft and the drowsiness of the pain killers kick in added in with her sickness exhaustion. ]

Itsuki.....?

[quitemysterious]

Yes'm?

[azerosknight]

I don't want you to get sick but...

If you can...

Stay with me until I-- [ One can guess what's happened here. ]

[He sighs audibly once more, and sits on the floor, leaning against the bed-frame. He's not stupid, so he's still got the mask and gloves, but he does close his eyes and mutter to her still (sleeping?) form]

Yeah. I did promise you forever.
