Can Shinki get sick?

[ A seemingly simple question, but one that's been clawing at him for days. The symptoms have become too painful to ignore, so he bites his tongue and seeks answers because unknown to him, his bloodlust has begun to manifest. ]

If I didn't care what happened to you
I'd have given up by now.
And I've never known anybirdie that I'd call a servant.


[Geez, she's not Sakuya. But she is a pretty experienced hunter. And a goddess now besides. And she's already starting her search.]

Whatever this is you don't have to handle it alone.

[OOC: She is going to search for him. Both with mundane tracking skills and her newfound ability to communicate with animals. But I'll leave it to you whether she succeeds in finding him.]
talkbirdytome: (blank stare)

to action then!

[personal profile] talkbirdytome 2016-09-12 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Hiyoko has never been one to give up. Or listen to anything resembling common sense. So while it may take a few hours, she manages to track him down.

Actually an owl, a handle of bats, and several alley cats gave him away. But she's not above cheating a little if she thinks someone is in trouble. When she spots him in the park, she smiles at the cats next to her.]


Thanks guys. Good job.

[Then she steps up to the bench carefully.]

Hi...

[She's trying to subtly look him over for signs of injury, illness, or blight. She's especially concerned about the blight possibility.]

How are you holding up?
talkbirdytome: (Ummmm...)

[personal profile] talkbirdytome 2016-09-12 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
I know.

[Yep. Definitely awkward. At least she has the grace to look slightly apologetic.]

But you can yell at me later, okay?

[She's still walking towards him, but slowly and as non threateningly as possible. Now that she's closer to him her instincts are definitely picking up something... off about him.]

For now.... I want to help you.
talkbirdytome: (what's going on over here?)

[personal profile] talkbirdytome 2016-09-12 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
[She stops advancing, and holds her hands up where he can see them. He doesn't seem angry so much as... nervous. But why?]

Hey, it's okay. It's fine. I never got sick even before I became a goddess. I've got a good constitution.

[That much is true. And she spent a lot of time around a certain sickly best friend, so she's confident in her immune system at least.]

So let's start with 'how are you feeling right now' and go from there. Er, how are you feeling right now?
talkbirdytome: (idkmybffbird)

[personal profile] talkbirdytome 2016-09-12 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, that's a good start. What is it?

[She takes another careful step forward. If it is something like blight, being close to him won't matter. As long as she doesn't touch the blight she'll be fine.]
talkbirdytome: (Hunter gatherer pride)

[personal profile] talkbirdytome 2016-09-12 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
Seriously?

[She relaxes a little. She's dealt with blight before, so this should be no problem.]

In that case I know how to fix it. I had a run in with a nasty ayakashi once and I got a touch of that myself. As long as you don't leave it for too long it's an easy fix.

[Although... there were no symptoms of hunger or thirst. Just pain. So is that really what he has?]

Can I see the mark?
talkbirdytome: (whoa really?)

[personal profile] talkbirdytome 2016-09-12 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
[She can't, but it hardly matters. She steps up for a closer look, and after a minute, shakes her head.]

That isn't blight.

[She's not sure whether to be relieved or concerned yet.]

Blight looks more like a bruise that slowly get bigger and bigger.
talkbirdytome: (what you talking about?)

[personal profile] talkbirdytome 2016-09-12 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Hiyoko is more than a little taken aback by the sudden shift in tone. If it wasn't blight then what did he have? And why was he still worried about her catching it?

At least, she assumes that's what he's worried about. She raises her hands again, trying to keep things as calm as possible.]


What's wrong? It's not blight, so I probably can't catch whatever it is. We just have to figure this out.
talkbirdytome: (the last straw)

[personal profile] talkbirdytome 2016-09-12 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
No.

[The word is still quiet, but firm.]

I'm not leaving when you're so obviously not okay. I came all this way to help and that's what I'm gonna do.
talkbirdytome: (you are no fun at all...)

[personal profile] talkbirdytome 2016-09-12 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
Nope. I decided to help out a friend all on my own.

[She frowns and puts her hands on her hips.]

And fine, you don't want me here. But I am here. And I kind of think you need somebirdie right now.

talkbirdytome: (looking back in surprise)

[personal profile] talkbirdytome 2016-09-12 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
How do you know? You won't even let me try...

[She can see how he tenses up and definitely gets the sense that something in him being pushed to the limit. Like he's about to snap or break. But she isn't quite sure what it all means.

Whatever it is, it also pings her well honed instincts into high alert. This is the feeling she gets when there's a large predator near her cave, or when Dr. Iwamine enters the room. The feeling of 'you are doing something dangerous.' But he still doesn't look dangerous. And he obviously needs help. She can't ignore that.]


Give me a chance.
talkbirdytome: (pretty birdies)

[personal profile] talkbirdytome 2016-09-12 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know yet. But we've already ruled out blight. So if you just tell some more specifics about your symptoms maybe we can figure out how to help you.

[She risks another small step forward and a tiny smile.]

Two heads are better than one, you know?
