So I know a lot of people are getting sick, and I know that chicken soup is something a lot of people recommend back home. So I wanted to make soup, but I couldn't get any actual chicken, so I got fish. It's been tasted and called not bad.

So um. I have soup. If you're sick.

[This sounds really lame now that she's saying it out loud. Ah hell.]

Robin, I'm bringing you some. And anyone else I know who's sick. You're getting some.

[You people are taking this fish soup.]

So I'll...be around...with soup.

[Action]

[She goes to Varric's bar because he announced his first. And it is very comfortable for her tastes. She finds herself a table, and gets a pint of whatever. Then she starts drinking. For a more petite girl, she drinks very very well. And she'll be there a while. Until they ask her to go. She's really not used to bars that have closing times.]

Comments

They're family.

[It's more than being from the same place. She saw Coil at his most raw. She knows he's been wounded deeply. It worries her, and has brought her around completely from her opinion of him from months ago.]

[tothefly]

[Family. She supposes she can see that, now, looking at them in hindsight. She'd known they were close, hadn't known if it was from the fleet or before. Time and boundaries, relationships, all seemed to get a little fuzzy here. She wasn't sure if that was just the nature of close proximity, or something to do with the augments. Nodding slowly, she lifts her glass to sip at it.]

I didn't know. He's not handling it well, is he? Being alone.

[child_of_bhaal]

He trashed Zhas' empty room. I'd say that qualifies as not taking it well, but I don't blame him. They are very close.

But he's not alone. He still has friends here. People he can lean on.

[Gentle hint. Please look in on him, Natasha.]

[tothefly]

[That would do it. The skulking in the air ducts she might take as normal, but there's been something else about him that's off. Maybe she should check in on him.]

Guess not everyone can handle the idea that the people they count on could be gone at any moment, here.

You care a lot about your crew, don't you?

[child_of_bhaal]

I care a lot about my friends. I don't like to see them hurting.

[Coil could switch ships tomorrow and it wouldn't change how much she'd worry.

Or it might make her worry more.]

I just wish I knew a better way to help him.

[tothefly]

Some things you can't fix for someone else. Although finding a way to bring Atroma down might help. A way home. But I think we're a ways off from that.

Distraction might help, a little. He's feisty. Likes fighting. Maybe taking him through a few rounds in Barnes' gym might do him some good.

[You know, if you can't find any roving street gangs to beat up.]
