Actually I can't cook I just sort of was hoping you guys eat raw meat because you're all animals but then I realized I don't even know how many of you are carnivores and also maybe you can't actually eat it even if you are but then I thought maybe one of you could cook and I already got all of this for you so I thought I'd at least ask

[presentational]

Put it in the fridge. The next person who comes over can cook it.

[ifshebleeds]

Okay!

[ she's heading in then, closing her parasol and placing it in her satchel as she does. ]

[presentational]

Thanks.

[ standing in the doorway to the hall to obstruct her from the hall to the bedrooms, so she can't really veer off track ]

[ifshebleeds]

[ wow what a helpful friend helping her not forget where the fuck she's going and wander aimlessly, clearly

anyways she heads for...sort of towards where the kitchen is. mostly she's just kind of in awe of the catio. ]

[ after noticing where she's looking at: ]

It's cool, right?

1/3

[ifshebleeds]

It is! It reminds me a lot of our garden at home, but right at the entrance and with way more places...to...

[ifshebleeds]

[ wait

garden.

she looks up, slowly. ]

I can't tell real and fake sunlight apart. Do you want to go check?

[ifshebleeds]

I have a sun allergy and I'll die really really really really painfully if it's real and also probably start frenzying before I die.

[presentational]

That sounds really really really important to check then!

[ifshebleeds]

Nnnno? The frenzying thing is when I uncontrollably attack people. So that's bad?

You sound like you kinda just want an excuse to kill me, which makes sense, but I dunno why you don't just say it. Isn't this a situation where it's okay to kill someone?

[presentational]

I don't mind if you attack me. You'll learn something important for next time.

[ifshebleeds]

I mind if I attack you. If I didn't, I wouldn't have brought non-you food and I wouldn't have told you about the risks of letting a monster into your home.

[ she suddenly starts speaking much more softly, words flowing rhythmically. ]

Do you know why I'm here? I was panicked when I was telling you earlier, so I don't think I got it across well.

[presentational]

I must have missed it, sorry. Would you mind telling me again?

[ifshebleeds]

I'm here to tend the wounded. As a physician, my duty is to work for a better world. A less hurt world. Your unit's ails, even the ones not caused by John, are in part a result of my failure to mitigate harm as efficiently as possible.

If I wasn't indisposed, for example, I'd have disabled John before he could escalate the situation. Then he'd be the only one hurt and we could focus on the effects of the game instead of an argument about who dies next. He'd agree, I'm sure, since he's a physician, too.

But I was and I didn't, and so regardless of the foolishness of me coming here, and whether or not I actually accomplished anything or could even help - there is no way to justify watching people we were supposed to help be harmed in large part by our own actions and continue on home with our tails tucked between our legs. At least, not for me. An act like that - for someone capable of coming here to help - would be reprehensible.

So here I am, whether foolishly or pointlessly. It's not about LiliS or WILD CITY or politics or supplication, but instead about those who are hurt and what I can do for them. Therefore - if my presence here were to cause more harm, I could hardly justify that, either. So I won't do anything that endangers myself, and I won't do anything that endangers anyone here, either. And to that end, if my presence here hurts more than helps, there's always the option of using your words and telling me so instead of making threats and treating me like a child simply because my mind often finds itself in tatters. You're capable of that, I'm sure.

Aren't you?

[presentational]

[ smiles, blankly, and with a tilt of the head answers ]

I didn't know some of the words, so I couldn't tell you. Especially if they were the important words.

But I can tell you Nychta-chan's not home yet.

[ifshebleeds]

Are you asking why I'm here, then? Too many cooks spoil the broth. She's being taken care of and her wound is serious enough I'd only be in the way.

Do you want me to leave or not?

[presentational]

I'm fine with anything, but Silver-senpai gets nervous with crowds.
