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?]

[just crawls onto the couch face-first. rolls himself onto his side after a moment with a sound of extreme effort. makes a face, like he's going to sneeze—]

Nakia is here. Was here. I slept with Marcel.

[what]

[morethanyou]

What?!

[willnotwatch]

...

Which part should I clarify?

[morethanyou]

[fiddling with a kimoyo bead so she can use it to get his vitals instead of hers, let's make sure you're not actually dying]

Is Nakia here or not? When did she get here? Did you give your own blood as a courting gift?! Is that what I was enabling?

[she sounds absolutely delighted]

[willnotwatch]

[he's not actually dying, he literally just has a tiny cold with the side-effect of random confessions.

if she checks his logs though, he absolutely has an obvious sex-related spike in heart-rate from two days ago]

The day before yesterday. I encountered her after we split up with Erik. She wasn't pleased. I'm not sure where she went off to after.

And no. The blood and the intercourse are separate matters.

[morethanyou]

And here I thought you might be getting bored.

[fetching him a comfier pillow]

[willnotwatch]

I didn't exactly mean to share that last bit of information with you.

[morethanyou]

Well, you don't have to tell me the details! He is charming, though.

[willnotwatch]

I'm not going to.

[morethanyou]

Lift up your head.

[so she can put the comfier pillow under it]

[willnotwatch]

[makes a grumpy sort of noise in the back of his throat but does in fact, lift his head]

[morethanyou]

[tucks it under him in max comfort position]

You just have a cold, brother. I'm not sure how you managed to catch one, but it should go away on its own before long.

[willnotwatch]

And it doesn't concern you that it appears to be controlling me? Stripping me of my defenses?

[morethanyou]

By "defenses" do you mean social boundaries? There there. I'll make you some tea.

[willnotwatch]

I'll have you know my tact is legendary.

[obviously... not... right now.]

[morethanyou]

Oh, yes, clearly.

[spreads a blanket over him, squeezing his shoulder in passing]

[willnotwatch]

[he watches her quietly for a long moment, then sniffles real loud.]

[morethanyou]

[brings him tissues and a trash can]

Blow your nose.

[willnotwatch]

You're so grown-up now.

[morethanyou]

...that's a good thing...

[willnotwatch]

It means I'm getting old.

[morethanyou]

We are literally in an ageless pocket dimension right now.

[willnotwatch]

...

[rolls to face the back of the couch]

[morethanyou]

[finishes making him tea before coming back and smoothing a hand over his hair]

Chaaaaaallaaaaaaaa.
