WHAT what you want
WHERE where you want
WHEN Day ""135""

[The rain has cleared, but it appears to have left some people with a case of the sniffles! The magic sniffles. Even if you've never been sick a day in your life, you might not find yourself immune. Then again, maybe you have a terrible immune system and you're fine. I'm not the magic sniffles police.

Symptoms May Include:

- runny nose
- sore throat
- fever
- thinking you're going to cough or sneeze but actually what comes out is A BURST OF THE TRUTH
- waking up in someone else's bed
- joint aches

At least the sketchy pop-up pharmacy at the mall has a special on tissues and nyquil?]

I'm not great.

[leans back against the headboard, absently stroking Shura's hair. she's wearing an oversized T-shirt ftr]

[coldhand]

Uh... morning? [she sounds a mess. hoarse and congested. not fair]

Sounds like you're doing better than the rest of us at least.

[coldhand]

You're going to say that now?

[with the red nose and the red eyes? really?

it's not a strong argument though. at least this time she doesn't bring up her scars.]

[dontworry]

Nah, your anti-sick.

[ she absently flops her arm over bucky's side then. good. ]

[dontworry]

[ oh, that's nice.

shura's wearing a long tunic-like shirt, sleeveless, and leggings, and her hair's all braided back. ]

Sorry 'bout that, hun.

[morethanyou]

So far. A cold must be as rare for you as it is for T'Challa, yes?

[coldhand]

Been better. [wincing and sniffling] Been worse too, but... I don't remember the last time I had a fever.

[dranksforthememories]

[just glossing her hand lightly over the crown of shura's head, shhh shh]

Go back to sleep.

[dontworry]

Y'gonna lay down with me?

[ lazily drapes her arm over her legs]

[dranksforthememories]

In a bit.

[makes a face like she's gonna sneeze, turning her head aside, but instead of a sneeze what comes out is]

Don't wanna dream.

—the fuck?!

[dontworry]

[ quiet.

Then she props herself up a little, frowning ]

You too, huh?

[dranksforthememories]

...I didn't mean to say that.

[dontworry]

[ frozen for a moment before hastily sitting up, get voice a bit panicked ]

I didn't do anything. I mean-- I didn't make you say that. I haven't cast any magic.

[willnotwatch]

It means I'm getting old.

[starspangledman]

T'Challa...

[spaces out a bit, staring at him, shakes his head]

Are you all right?

[dranksforthememories]

Hey. I wasn't accusing you.

[starspangledman]

[shakes his head, leaning against the wall a little more]

I'm all right. It'll pass.

[starspangledman]

No, I think—I should be okay.

[starspangledman]

I'm—all right. I think.

[starspangledman]

I—oh. I'm sorry.

[pushes up to get out but wow, vertigo]

[starspangledman]

[hi honey I'm just sitting on the floor for a minute it's okay]

Vas—?

[coldhand]

Science. I think. Honestly, I couldn't say for sure.

[comic book science. Bucky leans against Shura, okay with this]

[dontworry]

I--

[ she looks. A bit confused? But she settles after a moment, rubbing her face. ]

Sorry... sorry. I... um. Do you... want no dreams? I can try to help you.

[morethanyou]

We are literally in an ageless pocket dimension right now.

[coldhand]

[raking her hair back out of her face]

Can't remember my last one.
