122. Circumstances

[corrinesbell]

[To think it was just a regular day.

Sheena stumbles her way around from the back of house 18. One arm is braced against the outside wall of the house, the other useless. It's a slow, staggering kind of walk. When she runs out of house, she manages to move just a few more feet, into the road, before crashing to the ground again. Mercifully, her journal comes loose from where she had carried it at her waist, and ends up open, pages face down.

It's just out of her reach; her fingertips brush against it but she can't turn it over. Maybe having it open is enough]

I-I...need help. ...Please.

[[ooc: Follows almost immediately after this log, meaning it's Thursday up in here. The log is unfinished so far but we wanted to avoid some insane backdating/the chance that LJ murders itself again. So!]]

[Now that is something she would pay to see. Yes, Raine, please incapacitate the boyfriend for being an idiot. Sometimes he needs it. He has his own personal issues with Mithos, too, and that's not likely to make him act any smarter about the situation.

The question makes her think. She's been in so much less pain since Raine started healing her that it hasn't even crossed her mind that some things still hurt. ...And there's Raine's energy to consider. No reason to put her in the hospital too.]

I'm just sore. My arm and stuff.

[Then again, she'll probably be in worse trouble for trying to cover it up.]

...And my leg hurts, I guess. [her remaining sword cuts are stinging but she doesn't consider those important enough to use up magic on.]

[wise_maiden]

[And that's all the confirmation Raine needs, really. She nods, and gently starts casting again. Just a normal first aid this time- familiar and hopefully refreshing, for the time being.

She's been good about moderating herself, for the time being.]

[corrinesbell]

[Oh, it is indeed refreshing. She doesn't feel as much strain on herself from that spell either, even though her body is still working pretty hard to compensate for the repairs.]

D'you think the...the lightning...is gonna give me problems like I had before?

[wise_maiden]

I hope not. But right now we'll just have to watch for it, just in case.

[corrinesbell]

Okay. ...I hope not too.

[because that was awful. She doesn't want to go back to being like that every day.]

You said...a week. ...I guess that's not so bad.

[wise_maiden]

I wouldn't want you to get into anything stressful, after that, of course. But by then your body may have caught up with the amount of healing you've gotten, and gives your blood levels some time to recover as well.

[corrinesbell]

I figured. ...Hopefully nothing stressful happens then.

[wise_maiden]

If it does we'll just... deal with it like we always do. For now your resting is the priority.

[corrinesbell]

[Sheena is silent, after that, for quite a while. When Raine feels moved to investigate this, she'll find that the ninja has her eyes only half-open and seems to be struggling to maintain even that]

[wise_maiden]

... get some sleep, Sheena. It's all right.

[corrinesbell]

Mm. 'Kay.

[so her eyes close. It's not long before her hold on Raine's hand goes slack, either. Sheena's exhausted.]

[wise_maiden]

[She'll do her best to make sure Sheena's comfortable, straightening the pillows and covers a bit as well.]
