24 [Accidental Video] Forwarded to morning.

[Have Rei.

Have Rei who appears to be cutting apples, but the knife is on the floor, and she's staring at her hand in horror. She's cut her palm and blood is trickling down her arm, but she's mouthing silently at it, eyes wide as saucers.]

What did they do...?

REI-CHAN!!

[Usagi hurries in]

Are you alright?!

[Offline]

[marsfireignite]

I --

[She turns to Usagi, eyes still wide.]

I -- I can't feel it, Usagi-chan.

Re: [Offline]

[buntails]

Here, let me take care of it, alright?

[After this many battles? Yeah, she knows how to tie up a bad cut.]

Let me see it. Since you can't feel it.

[They have to figure out how bad it is just by looking. Oh, crap.]

[Rei extends her hand wordlessly. She's terrified, but she's doing a good job of not showing it. This is terrible. Bad. If she can't feel anything, she won't notice... anything.]

[realfolkinblue]

You should probably put some pressure on that cut.

[marsfireignite]

Usagi-chan and Cloud have it under control.

[A bit tiredly; this will be a long week.]

But thanks.

[realfolkinblue]

Don't worry about it.

Do you think you'll need to go to the clinic?

[marsfireignite]

I think I'm okay. It's not that deep.

[Offline] THIS IS SO IRONIC.

[mirroredecho]

[He had heard the noise of the knife hitting the ground from the den, his enhanced hearing thankfully still in tact. But once he made it to the kitchen, all he could do was stand there and watch, looking helpless from Rei's bleeding hand to where the knife lay on the floor.

He wants to help her. But he can't.]

You can't feel either, can you?

[Offline] I WAS GONNA MAKE HER BLIND BUT THIS WAS BETTER.

[marsfireignite]

... no.

[She stoops to pick up the knife gingerly with the hand that isn't bleeding.]

I can't.

[Offline] THEY CAN SIT AND BE STILL TOGETHER.

[mirroredecho]

[He sighs heavily, moving towards the counter and carefully picking up a cloth, trying to make sure he had a good grip on it - even if it did take him three tries - before moving towards her, taking her injured hand and pressing the material against it.]

Leave it. I'll have Zack come in and clean it up later. We need to get this healed before you lose anymore blood.

[Offline] BEST WEEK EVER Y/Y?

[marsfireignite]

I'm not an invalid, I can do it --

[But she frowns, because she doesn't feel... anything. No warmth, no pressure, no pain. Nothing. Her brow furrows.]

[use_theforce]

[So they haven't even met yet, but yeah, that was a lot of blood]

... Are you all right?

[Video]

[marsfireignite]

I'll be okay. Thank you, thoug.

[Video]

[use_theforce]

You sure? I can help if you need me to.

[Video]

[marsfireignite]

Mm, I have an army, thanks.

But I don't think I've met you. I'm Hino Rei.

[TEXT BABY]

[iceandivory]

I take it you're fine by now.

[Text] aslkfhlas this is going to be a fun week.

[marsfireignite]

[Give her a long moment. Texting without feeling anything feels really weird.]

Are you affected?

[Text] SO. MUCH.

[iceandivory]

I can't hear. [That was awkward to wake up to, yeah.]

[Text] ILU COMMUNICATION.

[marsfireignite]

[The next text is going to come in after about ten minutes, because Rei is trying not to laugh, and she requires total focus to text without feeling anything.]

Nice vacation. :)

[Oh yeah. Great week.]
