Seventy-Ninth Explosion

[deusexhormones]

[Voice]

All that snow and not even a single yeti! Not even a yuki-onna?! I mean come on, this is the perfect chance for an interesting experiment and it's not even used?!

Oi! Oi! Did anyone see either of those? Maybe Jack Frost? I mean there was a Jack O'Lantern a while back, so there should be something like this for payback for all this stupid snow...

Rena! Where the hell're you? [A pause, and then someone might hear Shiki whine-yelling something in the background. And then Haruki groans audibly before he tags on, as an afterthought-] Neku, you too. How's things there?

SOS-Brigade, report! Statuses, now!

[and then there's a chirp from Sekai in the background and he closes his journal]

Comments

[...Unsure how much room he has here, Minato decides to just wait this one out.]

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

Haruki...

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

I told you to shut up.

[But that's said without any feeling at all behind it. He sounds really... tired, actually.

[emp3thy]

[...And Minato returns to a seated position as well.]

She should wake up soon.

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

[ Fina purses her lips together and looks down. It seemed like everything she was saying lately only succeeded in upsetting people... not that she was unfamiliar with that concerning the situation with Ramirez back home, but... she strokes her Cupil bracelet again. ]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

[...] Right.

[...Sigh]

[emp3thy]

[Are you going to explain, or do they get to stare at one another until Rena wakes up?]

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

[ One of you boys better start talking. ]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

...It's a neurological disorder.

[Looking away from the both of them, of course]

[emp3thy]

Schizophrenia?

[That's the only thing he knows that causes delusions...]

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

[ Fina is unfamiliar with both of those words judging by her confused expression and looks at Minato. He seems to have a fair idea of what Haruki means by that disorder. ]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

It's a regionally unique one; it has a lot of stages that... people can go through. [...] Anyway. It can range from anything to increased paranoia to hearing things. [...To more. He trails off there]

[emp3thy]

And treatment?

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

[ Her face contorts with emotion. Rena... ]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

She's from a rural town in 1983. What the hell do you think?

[emp3thy]

Here could be different.

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

[ Fina looks at Minato and asks quietly: ]

Do you think someone here could help her...?

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

Here no one from that damn clinic is going to touch her.

[That is almost growled]

[emp3thy]

Then what is your plan?

[He wasn't suggesting the clinic, anyway; he knows Haruki's feelings on that.]

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

[ But Fina doesn't and looks down again after he growls that. He's actually quite scary at the moment. ]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

My plan? What; I'm supposed to micromanage her life?

[...Anger, rising]

[emp3thy]

It sounds like you want to.

[silviteadvocate.livejournal.com]

Minato...

[ She's worried there may be another outburst in a minute. ]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

Yeah and you're the dumbass who seemed to think it's perfectly okay to do that with Shiki.

[GLARE]

[emp3thy]

[Just... ignoring that entirely because it has no basis in truth]

Does Rena-san know?
