Post-Mission Passing Out

[of-10-faces.livejournal.com]

1. Action
[After the adventure that finished in dinosaurs and stuff, Tsukasa had about enough.

Making a beeline to his kitchen, he started up the tea and waited till the water whistled. Pouring the water, and steeping the tea, he sat down gingerly in a chair. He didn't look too hurt at all, just dusty with some scrapes and he took a long bracing drink.

Then, looking around, he summarily passed out, collapsing on the floor.]


2. Action
[Tsukasa looks much better, more of his color back instead of desperately pale. There's a bandage around his head but he's relaxing, doing an old crossword puzzle. He's also sitting up in the infirmary, pencil twiddling in his fingers.]

What's a five letter word for 'baka' in English?

[He clicks his tongue against his teeth as he sees Tsukasa just twitch. Taking a sip from the soda, then setting it down on a nearby table, he picks up Tsukasa by himself, slinging Tsukasa's arm around his shoulder and holding him up]

C'mon, soldier. Bed rest for you.

[Good thing Tsukasa heals over time. Dang those Rider HoTs.]

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

[Alexei would basically drag Tsukasa back to his room, slapping him lightly again to see if he'd wake up]

[of-10-faces.livejournal.com]

[Finally Tsukasa roused, blinding and wincing as he held his head.]

W-what happened...?

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

[Would still be dragging Tsukasa...]

You passed out, kid. Found you on the kitchen floor. Since I'm sure you wouldn't want anyone stepping on you, I just decided to drag you back to your room... I'm sure you wouldn't want me to drag you to the infirmary now, would you?

[of-10-faces.livejournal.com]

M'not a kid...

'fmirary... concussion... can tell... [slurred out Tsukasa.]

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

[He'd smack Tsukasa again and sigh]

Infirmary it is... I hope you don't have to take a nap every time you push it this hard...

[of-10-faces.livejournal.com]

Y'ave rocks fall on ya... sheee how you fair...

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

How big was the rock?

[He'd sort of smirk.]

[of-10-faces.livejournal.com]

Nuff ta drop me outta henshin...

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

[Alexei would offer that soda now that he's gotten Tsukasa awake]

Caffeine should help for now, but good ol' bed rest will get you settled. Don't believe those old wives tales about sleeping while having a concussion. Just do it to examine you before you go to la la land.

[of-10-faces.livejournal.com]

Nrgh. Right. Ah heal fast nyhow...

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't be so reckless with that kind of power. Fast healing, I assume, will only work so long as you're alive...

[of-10-faces.livejournal.com]

M'not. But everyone had to get out before I did. I figured I could get out before it happened...

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

So being a hero and reckless...

[He'd click his tongue against his teeth]

...good job...

[of-10-faces.livejournal.com]

Not worth doing the job if you can't save as many as you can.

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

[He chuckles to himself]

My, you sound like someone I remember...

[of-10-faces.livejournal.com]

Can I ask who that was?

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

[His expression dies suddenly.]

Berlioz... my mentor...

[of-10-faces.livejournal.com]

My condolences. [he knew that sudden expression.]

Still, thanks for bringing me here.

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

I'm sure he went the way he would've wanted to... It's no trouble at all Tsukasa.

[He'd set Tsukasa down on a gurney]

Just get better. And don't take another header. Last thing your brain needs is a few less brain cells.

[He'd stifle a chuckle. At least he was trying to get back into a happier mood.]

[of-10-faces.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Mind handing me that pencil and crossword? I get the feeling I'm going to be bored within a half an hour.

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

[He does so, finding an english crossword and pencil and handing it over]

That'll probably help to stimulate the mind...you sound better already though. I'd best leave you to rest.

[He'd bow before turning and making his way out of the infirmary.]
