[ SIGH. A-at least he admitted he was hurt. ]

I've said it a lot already-- but, I'm here to help you. So I'm going to.

If you don't tell me what's wrong, I'm just going to come over there and find out myself anyway! Once I'm done with this.

[b-blinks in surprise... uhm]

Ah... I... I believe it is a poison. It will pass.

...

[ W e l p. ]

Oh...

[ And then he finishes up on the Lucciola he's currently helping out, and then speaks to both of them. ]

[ To the Lucciola from the previous room: ] There ... do you feel any better?

[ And then to the poisoned one: ] And you ... [ He's upset there's not much he can really ... do to ease the poison, but...! ] You don't have to be on the uncomfortable floor to wait for it to pass. I think there's enough room on the bed for you until you feel better.

[now Castling feels bad about maybe saying he's poisoned too, but his is worse and he gulps down some air to reply, TRYING NOT TO LOOK TOO FEVERISH it's cool we cool]

Yes. It is better. Thank you, Rook.

[... you just want to see two Lucciolas on the same bed don't you. HE LOOKS SURPRISED STILL]

Eh? But. Are you certain...? [we're both adult dude my bed is tiny]

[ OH MY GOD I DO NOT.................... right at this moment. In another time and another place, maybe. ]

Of course I'm certain. It doesn't matter if it's a little crowded, as long as you're resting properly.

[ And giving a CONCERNED LOOK TO CASTLING at his response. ]

... are you sure it's better?

Aaah... as you wish, Lord Dio.

[I GUESS I CAN SHARE A BED WITH MYSELF... speaking of, Castling breathes in on a few shudders and closes his eyes. at first glance you'd think he was going to sleep, but it's not quite right]

I do not... know. I am very tired.

Tired?

[ Furrows his brow, because that could be normal what with the blood loss and ... whole ordeal. Places a hand on his forehead while he asks the two Lucciolas in better shape. :(a ]

I know it's asking a lot... [ Or maybe not so much since this is technically Lucciola taking care of himself which he ... does. But that's why Rook's doing as much as he can, too, so he knows that he doesn't always have to do that. ]

But ... can you help me look after these two, if you feel up to it? Or if you can help me find anything else I need [ Like those shards. ] to get rid of the problem that's infiltrated this place.

[Castling is very feverish and his skin is hot to the touch.

the other Lucciolas look up and nod. the slightly older finishes his small bandaids and stands up]

We will help, Lord Dio. You are looking for... shards, correct?

Yeah.

And if there's anything more we can do for him... [ This poor feverish baby. ;; ]

[he glances at Castling, frowning]

Something is wrong. [I MEAN MORE THAN... usual]

Wrong ... what do you mean wrong? Do you know what?

[he makes his way over to the bed and reaches over to feel his forehead too]

This is... rose poison. But it is too strong. It should not make him this tired.

[ He sure said the not-so-magic word. ]

... maybe whatever's affecting him is making it worse.

[ Goals in order: Take care of this Castling > Pick up any shards for that mirror on the way. > Finish picking up shards for that mirror after Castling is better. > SEE WHAT FIXING THAT MIRROR DOES. > ..... idk what else yet maybe that will be all.

He's not letting any part of Castling in here get worse or heavens forbid die. ]

I ... think I know where to go to help him, in that case.

[all the Lucciolas frown at you for that statement]

The rose garden is not safe.

[ Clearly the best way to counter a heavy load of FROWNS is with an even more emotional declaration of determination. ]

I know.

But all four of you here are still "Lucciola." And if even one part of you needs help, I'm not going to ignore it. Because it's all of you together, every part of you that's precious to me.

...

And, I know you'd do the same thing for me, without hesitation.

[ow feelings]

Please do not go alone.

[ Take that. ]

Don't worry. There are others in here who are helping, too.

[ But he also doesn't know how long Castling has before it gets worse than it is now ... so he's also squirmy about time limits. ]

I'll be back! I promise. And hopefully with you all feeling a little better.

[nods, after a moment]

Ah... all right...

[Castling isn't acknowledging his surroundings at the moment, so he won't even notice you leaving. the others watch you apprehensively, though

whenever you decide to leave, the door will take you back to the Hub]
