30th Appetizer

What... did something I say upset you...

[The Pureblooded vampire's speech is interrupted as he succumbs to a fit of coughing. When his voice is once again composed, some of the typical nonchalance is missing.]

... LINA?

[The sudden tone in Rido's voice loses it's irritation, too exhausted too extend his energy on that path anymore. Stifling another coughing fit, he shuts the audio off for a moment before it's aired for all to hear just how sick he's become. But after a moment, the signal returns.]

This is a temporary unnatural thing... this... 'condition'. But until then, I require a doctor. Immediately.




Oh yes. And when one arrives, I have a couple squatters from the Police that you might want to look at, as well. It seems there was a bit of a mishap.

I'm sure you're still stronger than absolutely everybody in the City.

... there is that.

Why don't you come see me. You can tell me how to deal with this irritation.

[neverendingbeat.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't be very helpful. I'm not often sick myself.

[council-king.livejournal.com]

Too bad. I wouldn't have minded your being around. But if you're feeling too weak 'ill', by all means, rest.

[OMG Rido, he is too feverish for this bullshit.] I'm not coming by to look after you.

[council-king.livejournal.com]

What, are you asking for reassurances?

[neverendingbeat.livejournal.com]

No. I'm explaining my conditions.

[council-king.livejournal.com]

Just as well. I probably couldn't have tolerated company for very long, even yours... I'd hate for you to be damaged by my ill humor.

Your concern is touching.
