Anyone amongst the We-of-Other-Worlds out there good with herbs and that kind of stuff? An easy recipe to get swelling and muscle pain down would be nice.

I guess considering the climate, a suggestion for a stronger remedy for a sore throat and sticky cough would be good to have in hand.

You're sick?

If I said no, would you believe me~?

[It flicks on to show you a screen full of books stacked on top of each other. Maybe a bit of an arm on one side, hem of a shirt on the other.]

Turn on audio, so I don't have to read your scribbles again.

What's wrong?

[Someone is in the library, has been since this morning.]

I can't go out tonight. Not for a fight at least.

[Voice. Is sort of huskier, faded. No voice man. He did spend the time in wet clothes a few days ago. And bad weather. And snow. Remember that night? Yeah. Voice says it all.]

Mnn. Hot water, mix in some thyme and mint. I know we have them in the kitchen. Plus if there's garlic, eat it. I don't really care what you make of it, you're the expert on that. Just eat it. Then cut up an onion, and keep it near you, the fumes from that will help with your breathing.

Stay in.

[Pause, he still hasn't looked into the screen. Just talking through it. That hand is moving, like writing something at the same time.]

Are you sleepy? Is there anyone else there? Don't let the fire go out. If you think you can't handle that, let me know right now. [Simple and to the point, don't even think about lying to him.]

[private - video] rainandsushi January 4 2011, 11:49:46 UTC

I'm not sleepy. I can handle that.

[As expected. Would it work though? But that really isn't his biggest problem.]

I don't suppose all that would work for a bruise either, right?

[Rin sits over this one a while, because she's been forgetting her mother's teachings about herbal remedies in places, so she has to jog her memory a bit for them. These here are fairly easy, though.]

Try some pseudoginseng or peppermint, maybe?

For sore throat, I'd recommend some honeysuckle. Best make a tea from it.

(OOC: In which I use my google fu, i.e. NOT SURE IF THESE STATEMENTS ARE TRUE.)

[text] rainandsushi January 4 2011, 12:51:14 UTC

Thanks! That's a little obtainable! Honeysuckle sounds a little tasty. Pseudoginseng and peppermint for bruises? Or the cough?

[text] revengeisalie January 4 2011, 12:57:53 UTC

For the bruises. If I'm remembering things correctly.

You're a... herbologist?

Is someone ill?

[Text] rainandsushi January 4 2011, 18:36:02 UTC

Someone might be! Good to be prepared right~?

[OOC: I wasn't sure if the 1/2 bit was an error or something o.o]

[Text] colaisnotcoffee January 4 2011, 21:37:23 UTC

Are you sick?

[Text] rainandsushi January 5 2011, 05:17:44 UTC

Just a mild cough. Remember the party? It was snowing. Got drenched for a bit on my way back. XD

I have plenty of slippery elm bark, for cough and sore throat? Honey works well too, or lemon and honey?

For muscle pain, if you can find any hot peppers, I used to make a rub out of that in my world; it did wonders. Honestly in any kind of fat it works, though it might be rather crude and less than pleasant-smelling.

TEXT rainandsushi January 4 2011, 18:34:10 UTC

Many recommended honey. Elm bark is kind of new. You don't mind if I take some off you whenever, right? If the honey thing doesn't work as fast I mean. I'll compensate of course!

Also, hot peppers? Really? O_o

Re: TEXT tenpa_tantrum January 4 2011, 18:39:10 UTC

Of course, I wouldn't have offered, otherwise. If you don't mind making the trip to Mizusato, I don't mind supplying you with some.

Yes, really. I know it sounds strange, but the capsaicin in them is really good for inflammation. Basically, by irritating the skin, it causes 'mediator' chemicals to be released that counter the irritation... like causing the body to help itself. Helps with pain and soreness quite a bit.

TEXT rainandsushi January 4 2011, 19:46:15 UTC

Nope. I don't mind. Never been to Mizusato actually! You sound like someone I know. You some sort of dermatologist where you come from or something? :)
