(The feed turns on with a loud clatter, as if it has just fallen to the floor from a high distance. There is no video, but the clatter is followed quickly by the sound of a series of congested coughs that sound as if they're attempting to be stifled. The breathing that ensues is fast and ragged, but is insignificant to the coughs which continue

Even when we aren't cursed we're cursed it seems.

[moarcowbell]

You'll understand when you're older.

[icyconformist]

But... I'm already older than you.

[moarcowbell]

Maybe on the outside.

[icyconformist]

But "mine" is before "yours."

I'm older, both that way and physically.

[moarcowbell]

On the inside I am much older.

[icyconformist]

How are you possibly older?

[dr_seahorse]

(First off, he can't believe you just talked about the curse so openly. He would scold you for that, were it not for him attempting to catch his breath once more.)

[moarcowbell]

[ If anyone asks he'll tell them they're under a gypsy's curse that causes them all to die at a young age.]

Hari..

[dr_seahorse]

(Well...that works. He's quiet for a bit, but finally manages to speak, although his voice is quiet.)

...Hatsuharu.

[moarcowbell]

You alright?

[dr_seahorse]

(Even in this situation he's going to attempt to keep his composure. He can't let his younger cousins worry too much, after all.)

Yes....I'll be fine.

[moarcowbell]

[ Too late for that, haru's already worried but know he can't come over to help]

Just.. let people help you.

[dr_seahorse]

(He nods as he coughs again, but once that's over he manages to catch his breath a bit.)

...And...yourself? How are you and Isu...Isuzu

[moarcowbell]

She's doing well..

[dr_seahorse]

And you?
