[Materialize Eight] | [Stuck in the Infirmary]

[crystal-energy.livejournal.com]

[As everyone knows, Arika doesn't "sit still" well. And, as probably most know by now, she was injured in the last mission. Furthermore, some may remember from the last time she was in the infirmary, that for the nanomachines to heal her properly, she's supposed to "sit still."

[Which means that, for the next few days, Arika's stuck in the infirmary. And bored out of her mind.

[She also doesn't know yet how many people saw her naked]

[Hana still feels slightly responsible for Arika, mostly stemming from the fact that the most she had done in-battle was just catch a robot from trying to pin her to the wall.]

[Knock, knock, Arika - have a worried PreDesu pilot in your room]

Arika? How are you feeling?

[crystal-energy.livejournal.com]

Hana!

[Arika perked up]

I'm bored!

[wimpy-cure-ever.livejournal.com]

Being stuck in here? I don't blame you!

[She begins to look around idly.]

...wonder if there's any board games here...

[A pile of manga walks into the infirmary on small robot legs. A white arm emerges from its side and waves to Arika.]

[crystal-energy.livejournal.com]

Prommy!

[Arika moves over slightly on the bed, patting it for him to get up]

[saikyocivrobo]

[The tiny robot sets the pile on the bed, gets up and then stands proudly next to it, like a victorious adventurer bringing in a pile of treasure.]

After Arika gets checked over by the doctors, Tatsu runs in with an award made of paper and glitter on its' tail and jumps into Arika's lap. If she can't leave the infirmary then she should at least have something to pet, I mean company.

[crystal-energy.livejournal.com]

Hey, where'd you get that?

[petpetpetpetpet]

Tatsu pulls out a picture of Arika and mimes out it saving her. Tatsu carefully places the picture down before pulling out a picture of Alexei and mimes the picture talking to Tatsu and presenting the award.

You're looking like you just want to get up and run.

[crystal-energy.livejournal.com]

Tsukasa!! I'm bored!

[of-10-faces.livejournal.com]

Yes but you have to stay still or you won't be better. Want me to go get you something to read?

[The doctors finally talked Njall into giving him a brief checkup after he regrew from burned carbon and cooked flesh. Fortunately, Njall never saw her during the naked phase.]

You know, sitting still for a little while never did anyone any harm.

[crystal-energy.livejournal.com]

But it's boring!

[modern-ancient.livejournal.com]

Everyone's so impatient these days.

Very well. In my home, there were many days of winter where it was too cold to go outside, and we did not have all the elctronic toys like you have here. The custom for the long winter nights was to pass the time by telling stories of heroes of old and of the Aesir.

Do you know the tale of Geirrod and Agnar?

*And the pilot of the Reinheit also comes to visit you.*

...I know you magical girl types have barriers, but the effort you put out there, mixed with the constant pressure from Kojima radiation...

...girl, you crazy. I'm glad I'm not your enemy.

[Arika chuckled]

It's an Otome's job to protect everyone! I don't want to have any enemies!

[aprimeanswer.livejournal.com]

*You get a smirk from this, and a headshake.*

"As long as there's at least two people alive on this planet, somebody's going to want somebody dead."

That's an old saying we Mercenary types have. I admire your spunk, but it's naive to think that you won't have enemies. Not as long as you're dedicated to protecting this ship, anyway.

Hiiiii, Arika~!

(Yoshika entered the room with some food that...wasn't exactly infirmary-prepared; more like it was Yoshika-prepared.)

How are you feeling?

[crystal-energy.livejournal.com]

I'm bored!!

[and eying that food]

[aceshighhealer.livejournal.com]

Aww...~ (Yoshika sets the food right next to Arika for easy access.)

It shouldn't be much longer now. Watch-you'll have a clean bill of health before the weekend starts!

late as usual

[leftjoker.livejournal.com]

[knock knock]

Hey, Akira-chan. You doing alright?

don't worry... I'll get you back for it

[crystal-energy.livejournal.com]

[perks up]

Shoutaro!

Late but I said I'd tag

[curseu-reflexes.livejournal.com]

[Sit still? Sure. But that doesn't mean she can't visit friends again!]

Hey there... how's it going?

[crystal-energy.livejournal.com]

Julia!

[Arika smiles]

I'm bored!
