Thirteenth Choice - [Accidental Voice]

[spiritarrows]

[Anyone listening to the journal feed today will abruptly be treated to something like this, albeit slightly muffled:]

[A large splash, followed by some softer sounds of splashing. A bout of choked coughing.]

[A soft voice, barely audible but with a sense of relief.] Doumeki.

[More sounds of splashing that lasts all of three seconds before the same

[ He comes storming out after he throws a robe on. He didn't take the time to dry himself properly. He wants to be sure that Doumeki really is back. ]

You... you!

Can't you do anything normally!

[ action ]

[inheritsfate]

[ Not saying anything. Actually when Doumeki comes out there's warm tea ready. ]

I'll got get some food, though I didn't have much prepared.

[ action ]

[spiritarrows]

[Reaches for it but overshoots slightly, fingers knocking the cup instead of grabbing it. But grabs it properly before any of the tea sloshes out. A frown appears briefly before his face goes blank again.]

[ action ]

[inheritsfate]

...are you going to need to be fed?

[ action ]

[spiritarrows]

[This face. This 'are you an idiot' face in response to your expression.] No.

[ action ]

[inheritsfate]

Well good! I wouldn't anyways!

[ Only he would. And you know it, bastard. ]

[ action ]

[spiritarrows]

Hn. [He does.]

[ action ]

[inheritsfate]

I'm not making oden tonight. That can wait until tomorrow.

[ Meaning he doesn't want to go out for groceries and leave you here for that long. ]

[ action ]

[spiritarrows]

[Mission accomplished.]

Cha han. [Since fried rice can have almost any ingredient added to it right? And besides he just wants to eat as soon as possible and then sleep.]

[ action ]

[inheritsfate]

Fine. Just sit down, I'll make it.

[ action ]

[spiritarrows]

[Sits against the wall and leans fully against it, closing his eyes.]

[ action ]

[inheritsfate]

[ Comes back with food. Fried rice, some steamed fish, miso soup, and preserved vegetables. ]

...at least rest on the bed.

[ action ]

[spiritarrows]

[He's actually fallen into a light doze, but Watanuki's voice wakes him up. Slightly disoriented, he blinks a few times before straightening up a bit. He has enough manners not to eat in bed at least. Not when he can't trust his depth perception just yet.]

[ action ]

[inheritsfate]

[ He sets the tray down in front of Doumeki and sits down next to him. ]

Eat and then sleep.

[ He hesitates for a moment because it might be selfish but also, isn't it better if Doumeki doesn't move around for now? ]

Stay here.

[ action ]

[spiritarrows]

[Looks up in faint suprise, chopsticks frozen halfway to the steamed fish. Studying Watanuki's expression for a long minute...]

[ action ]

[inheritsfate]

[ No flailing, even at that silence. He just says it again. ]

Stay.
