4. [Audio] In which we...

Discuss Toxicology.

[A few seconds of silence precede any actual words. There is background noise, shuffling, breathing, the sound of objects moving, and the occasional quiet "No."]

Greetings, Genessia. [His breathing his shallow and therefore makes his speech very stilted.] I regret to inform everyone that, for the time being; any commitments I have made might be difficult to meet. Currently, I am convalescing in my residence and while I did not think I would; I require a healer, as I am now convinced I am being poisoned.

I also temporarily require either a cook to prepare, or someone willing to consistently deliver food, for two people.

What symptoms do you have, if I may ask?

Difficulty keeping food down, fever, weakness, intermittent confusion for the most part.

Those don't necessarily mean potion for the most part. Do you think I could take a blood sample to run a couple tests to be sure?

I do not mind, I just need too point out that my potassium tends to be significantly higher than a normal person's.

Is there a reason for that?

I'm sorry to hear that, Arro, of course I'd be glad to-

[That tense]

Hold on, present participle? What's behind it? Something in the water? Air?

I'll tell you later, Ted. I am in a difficult position at the moment.

[text, private]
It's my roommate.

[Arro has a way of raising questions with answers. Ted's at least familiar with the concept: someone who's toxic by nature. Like Grimer. Good times...]

That's...hmm. How's that? Don't suppose they can help it?"

Not so much. It is very much a...

[This post happened.]

Work in progress... Let me get back to you.

[Gasp! What is it with all these co-ed roommates? Scandalous. He'll patiently wait anyway.]

What exactly happened?

[ She also needs to talk to him about.. well, the permission she gave him when she was split in two but this comes first. ]

I had a run in with a little Miss. Koishi, I believe she was called. Our conversation was quite involved, one might say.

[ Right. What happened isn't exactly a secret so he doesn't really need to explain more. She sighs. ]

Well I can't exactly heal, but I'd recommend Yukiko. She runs the Heals on Wheels program, so she'll come to you.

A-Arro...?

[He sounded familiar, but without a face to go with it he wasn't as certain.

Still, he felt an instant pang of guilt. Healer? Fine. But poison...? He didn't have the skill to deal with poison and he knew it. His healing spells were too inferior. The best he might be able to do was mildly alleviate some symptoms temporarily by healing what 'damage' there was, but it wouldn't stop the poison from just doing more damage.]

I... I...

[had no solution.]

C-Can I help, somehow...?

Ser Bracken... [He certainly looks like he's in bad sorts, though he quickly turns the camera down so it isn't looking at anything.]

If I might ask for you patience on our date; that might suffice?

I-I can wait...

I...

[Even though he didn't have the right kind of magic, he still wanted to do something. He bit his lip, thinking.]

...C-Cassian knows lots about herbs and stuff. M-Maybe he can help?

Actually...If he knows something that will settle my stomach and that is not mint, I would love to hear it; that would be most welcome, Ser Bracken.

I-I'll call him!

Aye what, what is it?

M-My friend is being poisoned. Can... Can you help him?

Depends, what's the symptoms? Could be he's been poisoned, but then I'd need to know if it's from a plant or just a bad bit of food.

Or he could be a huge baby.

U-Umm... I... I'm not sure...

H-Here...

[And here he'll link Cassian to the public post.]

*In response to this video, Arro will receive a few deliveries over the next couple of days. The first is a grocery order with a large fruit basket and foods that are ready to eat or very easy to heat up, plus other bits and pieces of essentials.

The next to arrive is a beautiful and colourful bouquet of flowers, with no card. The final delivery is a chocolate cake and a gift basket of sweet treats. These come with a card that has a cute bunny looking sad and holding heart thay says: I'm sorry. On the inside it just says: Get Well Soon xo*

[Whoa what exactly happened here? Regardless Arro has a worried looking puppeteer's voice to greet him.]

Hey, I can come over and cook, I unfortunately don't know any healers but seen an advertisement for something called heals-on-wheels? Maybe that could help you some...Did you need me to take care of things in the office as well?

Dear me, Miss Tatlin, if you do much more for me I may have to change your title to Administrative Assistant~

As for them, I believe their magic is time sensitive and I have been down much too long. However, yes I would like you to take over, I'll make sure to get you a bonus and if you manage to get us more help I will double it.

[Bonus? More help? A chance to recover financially after the Colonel blew a whole lot of money to have a date with her, not to mention wasn't even spent on her?!? Count her in ten fold.]

You can count on me Dr.Caine~♪ Rest up and if you need anything else just let me know.

[HEY YOU. She heard this! And she was in the middle of making...what was probably supposed to be a cake too. Eleni's just trying to help! Besides, she finds cooking fun. Even if she is horrible at it. The sound of a wooden spoon hitting a wall should probably be taken as a bad sign, especially when it's followed by the lavender-haired girl throwing the door to his room open.]

H-how dare you?! [The Empress has her cheeks puffed out, and she looks kiiiiind of angry. Although equally adorable, especially since she's wearing an apron and everything.]

...Let me get back to you.

[He switches off his phone and places it aside, resting his working hand on his lap. Taking a moment to assess the Empress quietly, he clears his throat.]

Miss Eleni~ While I do appreciate the trouble, as...no one else has ever gone to such lengths for me, I would much rather assist you in your endeavors, especially if they're for my sake.

[Plus, he needs food to heal. He does clearly look like he's fighting an infection, but that's just how fast his metabolism works in cases like this, and not eating is the worst thing he can do. After a moment he sighs though, she is rather adorable in her outfit.]

You were making something? I would like to try it.

[Since, theoretically; practice makes perfect.]

That would be difficult to do in your current state.

[She imagines it would be very hard, if not impossible to cook without an arm and leg. Eleni crosses her arms, just giving him a look. She's given him plenty of food! It's not her fault it's not really edible. ~~Yes it is.~~]

I'm working on a cake! Someone told me they delivered one to you once, so I assumed you like them.

Ah...At the moment, yes. A shame as I thrive on challenge.

[Mostly impossible because he can't reach the counter, or oven. At the look, he looks away, briefly. She did manage to catch his attention again with the cake mention.]

I do, and that is lovely~ I am impressed, as most find baking difficult.

It's your own fault.

[Not that she would've fared any better, really. Eleni just chooses not to fight at all. Too much risk.]

Of course it's difficult! But I've had a lot of practice. [There's just this tiny look of pride on her face.]

Your concern is ever appreciated, Miss Eleni.

[He replies with a chuckle before he yawns.]

Do tell~ I would like to give it a try in that case.

[HUFF.]

Don't mock me.

[Or she really will feed him something awful.]

After it's finished.

Right.

I've been told you're in a bit of a pinch.

Ye have it handled yet before I start shootin' me mouth off about symptoms and herbs?
