(after like half an hour strawberry walks back by herself.)
(she just sits back down where she was before and doesn't say a thing. she does have some blood on her face from a nose bleed though. she seems to not notice it.)
(Zan looked at Strawberry a little startled)
U-umm... your face has s-some.. some blood on your.. uh..
I mean-! You probably know that! I-I’m sorry!
...(she looked up at him.)
wh?..
(she wiped her face with her paw.)
...(she sighs.)
of fucking course. (she said under her breath.)
(she then wiped her face with her sleeve.)
(she looked back up at him.)
...thanks.
Uhh.. your.. your welcome..?
(He wants to ask what that was about but shook it off as nothing)
....mhm.
(her nose started bleeding again.)
you've gotta be fucking kidding me.
(she looks up to her shoulder.)
could you STOP?
(she didn't say that quietly. kind of loudly actually)
(she immediately looked like she regretted it.)
....shit.
(that part was quiet.)
(He wakes up) Huh? Wha?
Is everyone okay? (He looks over to Strawberry)
Are you okay? Something happen?
(He gets up and starts walking towards her)
(she looked up at him. surprisingly she didn't actually look mad. she just looked worried.)
no. no. i'm fine.
(she said sternly.)
(her nose started bleeding more intensely.)
(she coughed up some blood.)
shit.
(she started to stand up.)
... here, let me help you up.
(He lends his paw to her)
i...
(she put her paw out slightly to grab his. but then put it back down.)
no i'm- (she coughed up more blood.)
i'm fine. i gotta go.
(she stood up all the way.)
(the blood was seeping out of her mouth now. she wasn't even trying to wipe it off at this point.)
(she started coughing a lot.)
...(she looked up to her shoulder again.)
stop it. you're making me look suspicious.
(she whispered.)
like you weren't suspicious from the start kehehe
(she could hear her parasite talking in her head. which isn't helping her because if she replied them then she'd look insane. but if her parasite showed up then loki would probably freak the fuck out. or something.)
...just shut the fuck up. you could do this at any other time when other people aren't here but you choose now of all times? what the fuck?
(she isn't that good at whispering btw. shes right there in front of loki and he can 100% hear her.)
.... I.. are you sure you’re okay? You don’t seem to be. I’m sure someone here can help-
(Miru cuts him off)
Loki. Get away from her. ..NOW.
(He looks over to Miru) Well I- (looks back at strawberry) I- I just want to help her.
I don’t care. Your always way too nice, you could get hurt. I mean, look at her! She looks like a murder!
(Loki gave Strawberry an apologetic look before walking away)
(she sighed, blood still coming out of her nose and mouth.)
(she started to walk away and turn the corner. but soon as she did that moss also turned the corner.)
(strawberry started walking faster.)
(as she was walking away you could still hear her coughing every now and then before it faded away.)
......... no. No no no. I’m NOT dealing with you!
(He hid behind Loki with is fur standing out)
Oh! Hello, Moss! How are you today?
(Loki is oblivious to everyone’s dislike for Moss)
oh hey. i'm fine or whatever.
...(she looks over to where strawberry walked.)
(she looked back at loki.)
i bet you 20 bucks she'll come back impaled and bloody.
(she looked completely calm. slightly smug though because that expression never seems to leave her face.)
....she’ll what..? (He looked dead serious)
(Miru was still hiding behind Loki, giving Moss a death stare)
(Spark was asleep)
(Zan was minding his own business, trying not to panic anymore that he was)
...did you not hear me? here i'll repeat myself.
i'll bet you 20 bucks she'll come back impaled and bloody!
(she sounded that out as if loki was an alien and moss was trying to teach him english.)
...y'know? impaled? you know what impaled means right? i mean you have to know what bloody means.
(she knows exactly what he meant.)
I- Wh? No! I know what you said, but what do you mean by it?? Will she be okay?? Do we need to go help her??
(He looked really worried)
oh. duh! i completely forgot you two were from a completely different universe!!
(she looked back over to where strawberry went.)
she'll be fine. even if she does come back like that then she'll be fine. it's not like she'll die or anything. haha!!
(she looked back to loki again.)
the worst thing that could happen would be that she gets her blood everywhere. it'll probably be funny though.
.....I- what?? No, WHY is she going to be bleeding??
(Miru is no longer paying attention, and is reading a book)
ppft. her parasite,
duh.
didn't koe tell you about that? you said something about that right?
also i say parasite but from what i remember i think she has.. three..?
but yeah her parasites obviously. i don't know how much koe told you but bleeding a lot is definitely part of it.
(she's completely calm.)
not that i am a guma, but i know more about them than the average person i think.
the impaling isn't exactly part of it. but strawberry seems to have that happen to her a lot.
her parasites aren't the greatest. heh heh.
i only know this from eavesdropping by the way. she probably wouldn't tell me any of this. let alone let me tell anyone about this. hahaha!!
...... so she is going to be okay, right? You’re positive she’ll be okay?
(Spark was still passed out)
(Zan somehow looked even more horrified)
yup! she'll be fine! at least physically. definitely not mentally but i think she's already screwed up way too much in that compartment!! also she's immortal anyway so!!
...oh.. okay.?
(He was still very worried)
(Zan began crying again)
I-I- I need to.. I need to- to go..
(He got up and ran off in the opposite direction strawberry went)
oh..? (her eyes followed zan.) well that was out of nowhere huh? (she looked back to loki.)
anyway bet?
Wh?? Why would I bet on that??
hah i dunno. why not? if she comes back fine then you'll get 20 dollars! it might not be in the right currency but still! maybe it'll be worth something where you're from!
(she's still completely calm.)
(koe is still asleep.)
(scarlet is debating on whether she should go follow zan or not. she's really worried.)
I’m not going to bet on that! That’s awful!
(He’s not even mad, just concerned)
is it really awful? is it? it doesn't seem awful. i think that's just your opinion.
....did something happen to you? Do you wanna talk about it? I’m always open to talk to, you know. I don’t mind, and even if it’s something I can’t really understand.. I can still try to help you feel better! C’mon!
(He sits and pats the ground)
Let’s talk about it! It’ll feel nice to get it off of your chest too!
(she slowly starts backing away from him.)
wh..? why would you assume something's wrong from that? i'm fine. great even!
(she stops backing up.)
i don't really know where your getting this from. i don't have anything to get off my chest unless you mean the obvious things that you should know just by look at me honestly.
(when she said that she pointed to the marks under her eyes briefly. she's talking about how she's a murderer and a skinwalker. )
(scarlet is still contemplating. but she's closer to where zan went than before so it's safe to assume that she's gonna follow him.)
.....ooookay.. well.. again, just so you know, I’m always open to talk!
(Miru looked up from his book, and noticed Scarlet kinda going the way Zan did)
What are you doing? Going after him? Really? That dude looked off the shits, but okay. Do whatever I guess.
