[Sakura is worn. Out. After a couple of nights of not sleeping well, and then a couple of days of fire-fighting and healing and killing, going going going non-stop, she's sore and low on chakra and generally fatigued. She pushed herself to her limit and now she's feeling it ( Read more... )

How does being in the undercity affect you?

[Sure Tifa had powers, but they were pretty much dormant unless she 'activated' them. She wondered if she applied.]

There were... things I couldn't do down there.

[Couldn't heal a cut on her arm. Couldn't summon her monstrous strength.]

[Voice | Private] neverloveless October 31 2009, 14:44:56 UTC

So there are power limitations? And conveniently enough in one of the worst parts of this world...

[Voice | Private] sucker_punches October 31 2009, 14:53:33 UTC

It wasn't so much a "limitation" as it was... I couldn't summon my chakra at all.

It's very convenient.

Are you okay? You sound kind of tired.

And the people from here really aren't any nice at all.

sucker_punches October 31 2009, 14:48:46 UTC

I'm fine!

[Not that she'd ever admit to not being fine.]

No, they really aren't. [Grumblegrumble] You think they'd be more grateful...

You sound new.

You sure? Maybe you should get some sleep. Being too tired can be dangerous around here. [And if he sounds concerned, it's because he is. It doesn't take a lot for Sora to start to care.]

I guess they really don't like outsiders. Or they think we're the ones who wrecked their houses and set fire to everything.

I got here a couple days ago! My name's Sora. What's yours?

sucker_punches October 31 2009, 15:13:48 UTC

[Sakura smiles.] I'm Sakura, Sora. You don't need to worry about me! I can take care of myself.

[A sigh.] I think they know we weren't. I saw a few of them looking out their windows. Plus, if they thought we'd burned down their shops they'd probably do more than just glare at us.

You don't have to thank everyone, Sakura-san. I think we all came out because we wanted to help... but, thank you as well. Are you alright though? You went to the undercity?

[Voice] sucker_punches November 1 2009, 19:56:02 UTC

I know, Watanuki-san. But I thought someone should.

I'm fine. And yes, I did go into Dismas. I was trying to prevent it being infested by those snakes but most of them escaped down into the tunnels.

[She does not say that she was reluctant to pursue them there. She's heard stories about those tunnels and with her abilities compromised it might have been suicide.]

This whole undercity thing is bullshit. Messin' with our powers... what the hell kinda place is this?

[voice] sucker_punches November 1 2009, 20:04:03 UTC

I wish I knew.

It's not... It doesn't make sense that I can't...

[Sakura has never once been in a situation where she can't mold chakra and it's... disconcerting. Perhaps frightening. Whatever it is, she doesn't like it at all.]

[Synthetic Voice ] internecineowl November 1 2009, 07:39:07 UTC

I've found a few friendly natives, but yes, most...

They aren't especially grateful, are they?

[He laughs a bit, though it's not very likely that he's happy. The next time he speaks, he's serious again.]

But Sakura, please do not exhaust yourself.

[Voice ] sucker_punches November 1 2009, 20:13:34 UTC

We helped save their homes. You'd think they could at least pretend to be thankful.

Really, Nagi, you don't have to worry about me. I know my limits!

[Well, she does! She just willfully ignores them sometimes.]
