[ she's thinking about how to respond... and then shrugs. ]

No, I'm okay. Normally, it's only after we become vulnerable that the effects apply to us too.

[ she says normally because memshare week was different and there is probably some stupid ic explanation for it but ]

[arkitect]

Is that so? Well, 'tis fortunate for you to be unaffected this time, then.

[he doesn't press the 'normally' part because sometimes the realm is just the way it is, i won't make you come up with a stupid ic explanation.]

[retellers]

[ the ooc explanation was we really wanted memshares. it's fine. ]

It would have been pretty awkward to explain.

[arkitect]

[just. glances down at all of this blood, and the faint blue glow showing through the fabric.]

So I have learned, yes.

[he keeps having to say he doesn't fucking know]

[retellers]

[ luckily, due to npc bullshit, tiger already knows she does not have to ask. ]

It doesn't hurt all the time, right?

[arkitect]

It does not. Small mercies, I suppose, although I would certainly take a measure of pain over this being nigh impossible to keep clean. My roommate and I have both given up on the bed.

[retellers]

[ closes eyes that is a lot of blood, ]

You'd be going through a lot of bandages just per hour, huh... I wonder if there's anything else that might slow it down.

[arkitect]

I have tried using other items to soak it up, but this also only lasts so long.

[he huffs.]

Really, if I did not think this Realm would simply undo the work I might resort to more drastic measures.

[he's absolutely considered trying to just cauterize this fucking wound.]

[retellers]

[ ugghhh... ]

Well, I'll look into it. It's difficult to get around these things.

[arkitect]

I would appreciate that, yes... this is unpleasant for everyone near me, not just myself.

[retellers]

Well, at least it's only a week, I guess.

[ she doesn't sound too convinced ]

[arkitect]

'Only' a week of near constant laundering, not to mention changing dressings.

[he's going to be so goddamn tired.]

Ah, I had nearly forgotten. We have met as a team, once or twice. If you should ever be inclined to join us, it might be helpful.

[retellers]

Oh. Yeah, sure. It might be easier if I can just say yes or no right away to any questions you have.

[ since she knows sometimes you think of questions in the moment and then rp happens and you never get to actually ask until much later. ]
