[000] Open Log: Month One

[ironysoul]

[Logs in this post may take place any time during the first month or so following the Promised Day. Al's symptoms will be extremely severe.



Al is most likely asleep.

If he's not asleep, he will be soon.

When he is awake he is very overloaded and hypersensitive to all sensory stimuli. This means:
- If anything touches his skin, he will be in extreme pain.
- Changes in the light/noise/scent levels will result in extreme pain.
- He's probably in pain, and therefore heavily medicated.

His medications will most likely make him... sleep.

He cannot tolerate any food or liquids well. If you attempt to feed him he will vomit.

Due to the severity of his condition, visitors will likely be restricted to family and those he requests to see. Visitation times will be short.

This log takes place in Risembool.]

N-no!

[oops.] I mean -- it's okay. If you want to stay. I don't mind.

[Cute awkwardness.]

[huntedwitch.livejournal.com]

Just for a few minutes, don't worry! I just wanted to see how you were doing. And I figured you wouldn't be on the community and stuff.

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

[Just a few minutes? But...]

I'm okay. Really.

[He manages a small smile for her. Because that is a total lie.]

[huntedwitch.livejournal.com]

Good! I was pretty worried about you.

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

[He looks up at her through his eyelashes.]

You were...?

[huntedwitch.livejournal.com]

Yeah. A lot of stuff got posted on the community.

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

Yeah...

[He looks down, then brings his eyes back up.]

Sorry I made you worry, Eris.

[huntedwitch.livejournal.com]

[she shrugs]

It's not your fault. It's those jerks you were fighting against, right?

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

Yeah. [He puts his chin on his knees and watches her.] But... we don't have to fight anymore!

[huntedwitch.livejournal.com]

That's good. What do you have to do?

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

[He makes a face.]

Sleep and get better, that's all anyone lets me do.

[huntedwitch.livejournal.com]

Can you talk and stuff? Or go on the community?

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

Yeah! When I'm feeling up to it. My phone isn't to heavy! Plus people come and visit!

[That thought cheers him up immediately. Bright, happy Al is back.]

Anyway, tell me what you're doing! That's bound to be more interesting!

[huntedwitch.livejournal.com]

[she makes a face]

No way. I just... do my normal stuff.

[which is basically just laying low, being homeless and trying to avoid Vatican detection]

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

I slept 20 hours yesterday, and did a puzzle. [firmly.] Sloths are more interesting than me and you are more interesting than a sloth. Talk.

[huntedwitch.livejournal.com]

... I found a dry alley last night?

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

Oh... [he goes quiet for a minute.] you don't have to do that, you know... You could come here and stop running from... Whatever it is.

[huntedwitch.livejournal.com]

You said that before, too.

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

It's safe here. Boring, but safe.

[huntedwitch.livejournal.com]

... I do better on my own. Can't cause anyone else trouble that way. And then I don't owe anybody anything, right?

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

At least you could maybe... Rest for a while?

[huntedwitch.livejournal.com]

[...]

Are you sure?

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

Extra-sure. I want to help!

[huntedwitch.livejournal.com]

Someday I'll get some money and pay you.

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

Okay. You don't have too, but if it makes you feel better that's okay.
