ⅹⅴ┆*cough*

[shrugs_a_lot]

[Okay... That was weird... Having woken up a bit nauseous and headachy wasn't exactly in his plans of the day. The headache in fact wasn't weird to him, but that was another story. Nevertheless, it wasn't incredibly bad to stop him from going down to the kitchen to get something for breakfast first thing in the morning.

So there he is, sitting on a stool at the counter, a plate of cereal in front of him, though he's not really eating much but poking the very wet contents of his plate with his spoon. Is it your imagination or he does he look a bit... well, sick? Oh well, what do you know, SOLDIERs may be able to get sick after all.

The journal lies open next to him as he skims over it trying to find anything that catches his attention, though, it the journal which catches a couple of coughs... Or more than a couple.]

... This is different.

[And some more coughing.]

Aw, c'mon...

It is that season.

[shrugs_a_lot]

Huh?

[righttrack]

For getting sick. Isn't that what you're complaining about?

[shrugs_a_lot]

Kinda... I haven't gotten sick in years. [Coughs a bit more.]

[righttrack]

Years? Really?

[shrugs_a_lot]

Yeah. It's got something to do with SOLDIERs' immune system, I think.

[righttrack]

You're... A solider?

[shrugs_a_lot]

First Class SOLDIER... [Le cough.]

Or used to be.

[righttrack]

Oh... What happened?

[shrugs_a_lot]

I quit. But you never stop being one... [This is hard to explain to people who aren't from his world...] Thing is I shouldn't be getting sick, it must be the castle.

[righttrack]

[Okay, now he's confused again.]

Well... This place is crazy.

[shrugs_a_lot]

It really is.

I take it that you're new? [Never heard you before, buddy, but then again he doesn't pay much attention.]

[righttrack]

Kind of new. It's been about a month.

1/2

[shrugs_a_lot]

[Cough-cough-cough-that kind of cough that makes you want to throw up...] Shi...

[shrugs_a_lot]

Sorry 'bout that.

... and about the coughing too.

[righttrack]

Oh, it's alright.

Have you tried tea?

[shrugs_a_lot]

Maybe later.

[righttrack]

It should help!

[shrugs_a_lot]

[By this point he might or not be leaning on the counter, bleh.]

Yeah... later.

Dictated forever

[huffythedragon]

...Hey you don't sound too good.

[samson]

If you're sick, we're down a man for football. [GET IT TOGETHER, CLOUD]

and ever

[shrugs_a_lot]

I don't feel too good.

[shrugs_a_lot]

[... That's so unfair!!!!!!!!]

I'll get better. [Yeah no... Coughs.]

[samson]

Go get some soup or something.

... actually, I don't think anybody's ever gotten sick here before.

[shrugs_a_lot]

Yeah... later.

... Seriously?
