towerofanimus | 3rd Mission

Characters: Rolo Lamperouge and YOU
Setting: Dorm hallways at night
Format: Both are fine. I'll follow.
Summary: Rolo has the normal type of flu but with it comes a nasty cough. His cough is getting so bad that it's interfering with the use of his Geass... too bad those monsters are closing in on him... Some help please?
Warnings: None yet.

Rolo is bundled up warmly in animal skins he's hunted and prepared himself but that doesn't seem to have stopped him from getting the flu. He doesn't mind the flu so much except that he's been afflicted with a bad cough and the medicine he's been taking doesn't seem to be helping much.

He's just on his way to his room rather late at night when he hears monsters approaching. This doesn't scare him and he simply takes out his knife and gets ready to activate his Geass, however, that's when he suddenly gets caught in a nasty bout of coughing. He can't quite keep his Geass up as he doubles over coughing. The monsters get nearer. He tries to control his coughing but to no avail... Help?

chaos is the master at avoiding questions and giving answers that aren't really helpful unless you really think about them. He smiled as he spoke.

"Other than killing monsters, as you just saw, I am able to heal people and help them out. Why do you ask?"

Rolo just looks at him silently for a long moment. "Are you human?"

"I am as human as you are." And chaos's smile left his face as he spoke.

Rolo just watches him impassively. "Humans don't usually possess the powers you seem to have."

"..Everyone has at least one skill that they excel in over all others. It's something that defines who they are. This is one of those skills. There are people who can do things much better than I can, yet they are not inhuman."

Rolo was silent for a moment. All that was true but the powers chaos had displayed... yet, there were lots of people with 'magic' here, wasn't there?

"Was that magic then?"

At that, chaos smiled.

"Perhaps. Now..you should probably get some rest. You are sick and could use it."

It was so suspicious how chaos seems to be avoiding his questions but Rolo decided to let that me for now.

"I should. This is so annoying..." And he coughed a bit more.

It may have been suspicious, but chaos was happy that he didn't pry further into it.

"I imagine it is. However, some rest and some medicine should help. If you go and get some sleep, I shall provide you with some medicine to take when you wake up."

"Shouldn't I take the medicine before sleeping...?" Because that's how it usually goes, right?

"Usually..however, if you fall asleep by the time I get back, it would be better if you rested and took the pills when you woke up instead of being forced to wake up, take some pills, and not be able to go back to sleep." chaos explained.

"I see. I'll wait for you in my room then?"

At that, chaos nodded.

"You should get in your room and try to sleep. I shall be back shortly with some medicine."

And with that, chaos would start running off to the infirmary.

Rolo nodded back and did as he was told. He lay down and waited for chaos to come back.

It took chaos a little while, but not too long. Once Rolo and anyone else was out of sight, he teleported to the infirmary, picked up some cold medicine, tylenol, and a glass of water before going back to the hallway outside of Rolo's room.

Quietly, he entered, not wanting to wake him up if he was asleep.

Rolo isn't asleep yet but rather drowsy when chaos comes back.

chaos saw the state that Rolo was in and smiled to himself. Carefully and quietly, he walked into Rolo's room and put the things down by the end of his bed.

He could take them when he woke up. For now, he needed to rest.

Rolo could sense someone moving around in his room though and makes himself wake up and sit up a bit. "You're... back... Is that the medicine?"

In the back of his head, chaos sighed. He didn't mean to wake Rolo..

"Yes, it is..and I do apologize. I did not mean to wake you, if you were sleeping."

Sorry, chaos, he was trained to be a light sleeper. "I wasn't asleep yet." He rearranged his pillows a bit so he could lean against them more comfortably.

chaos picked up the glass of water and the cold medicine before speaking again.

"I see. Do you think you could drink this then?"

Rolo reached out for them.

"I can." And that he does without complaint.

chaos nodded as Rolo took his medicine and tried to put a hand on the person's shoulder.

"Good. I am glad to see that. Now, please, try to get some sleep."

If Rolo didn't brush his hand off, he would use some of his power to calm Rolo down enough so that he would get some rest.

Rolo began to feel rather sleepy and slowly slide back down underneath the covers.

"Yes... I should get some sleep..."

At that, chaos nodded and started to walk out of the room. If Rolo was about to fall asleep, it would be better if he wasn't here. That way, he wouldn't wake him up.

"That you should..goodnight, my friend. Sweet dreams."
