Who: Clay Terran and ALL of you!!
Broadcast: Yeh
Action: On the Vanquish!
When: January 2nd

[Clay was having a good time exploring the temples. He was all about them temples. So, of course, he feels very bitter about having to cut the exploration short due to catching a cold. A cold. And on top of that, one of his crewmates is gone. He was about to tell Koushiro that hey, the captain caught a cold too, and... well. Normally he'd bounce back from all this and move on, but with the cold quickly and progressively getting worse and worse...

So he's in his bed, covers up over his head and very. Very. Bored. And it's only been a day since he was ordered bed rest! He could be exploring the temples more. He could be learning about the salt mines. He could be continuing his research for his star charts, but no, that has to be put off too. Ugh, this will mess him up...

With a groan, he rolls over, pats for his device, and decides to type since he doesn't want to cough in everyone's faces:]

Yes, but you should be resting.

[experiencepoints]

What do you do to entertain yourself when we're between planets?

[geonomy]

finish up star chart calcualitons, do captainy paperwork [Which is going to pile up too, NOOO], talk w/the crew, do gym stuff and work out, make some things learn some things

i don't have the brain power for a lot of it rn :(

[experiencepoints]

[oh my god it's hAN SOLO?? FIRST LEIA NOW HAN?

Suddenly Clay's day is not so bad. Maybe things can look up again. Han Solo is actually taking pity on him and giving him a gift! Apollo would never believe him. He'll even type properly kind of!]

thank you :D

And promptly shuts it off.]

[About an hour later, Eugene's rapping at the hatch that leads down to Clay's room, calling down to him.]

Hey, captain. Still alive down there?

action;

[geonomy]

Uuuugh.

[Is all he gets in return. Along with some coughing at the end because okay he might have over-emphasized that uuuugh.]

[huaaaaagh]

[You know what's great when your comprehension of a language is really bad already?

Spelling mistakes. And short form.

He's gonna squint for a while.

....]

sick?

[geonomy]

sick yes :(

[Oh wait, this is Kirito, who doesn't read English well. Mrrgh, changing to voice is gonna sound terrible, but. He'll do it anyway.]

This better?

[Action]

[flickerflash]

[Hello, sick captain person. Katie would make you chicken soup, but (1) the kitchen is weird and she doesn't know how to use it, (2) we already have a cook and (3) lbr her soup would taste terrible anyway. And somehow have cat hair in it.

But she'll peer at him around the door anyway and peer at him dubiously.]

If I come over there will you infect me?

[Action]

[geonomy]

[Yeah okay he doesn't want to get worse thanks to terrible soup. With cat hair.

He peeks out from under the covers at that, his hair even messier than before due to being in bed for hours.]

Ah... probably better to stay where you are. You might get hit with my coughing weapon if you get too close.

[mikangirl]

[lmao you poor thing]

From one sick person to anotehr I feel you
But what I end up doing to entertain myself probably isn't your thing

[She's mostly better now, though she has a cough that's just a pain in the ass and refuses to leave.]

[geonomy]

no y are u sick too :( its like the world is ending

but what did u do?? [Now he's curious.]

[openhands]

It has been a while since I was stuck in bed. But I usually use the time to catch up on some reading.

[geonomy]

i don't have much books but

hmm

[Give him a second while he slooowly pulls himself to the edge of the bed to look down at the floor.]

i do have a book to teach myself another language

[thebloodseal]

[Al knocked softly on Clay's door before poking his head in.]

I brought a deck of cards...

Action

[geonomy]

Really?

[He'll peek out from under the covers to look up at Alphonse. He's at least not worried about getting him sick, what with Al being a suit of armor and all.]

I don't really know much games... do you? We could play something. [He slowly sits up, though the movement still makes him bend over to cough harshly into a fist. Ugh. Colds.]

[geonomy]

obvious??

[stefanged]

I'm sure it won't be forever. It's a cold, not tuberculosis.

That said, I usually read. I've got a few novels lying around, so I could bring those over.
