[open] you can lead a sick horse to water
Who: Konoha and YOU
Where: around the Temple
When: 8/28 - 9/20
Rating PG???
What: catch all log for hanging with a centaur before or after the sick sets in
01 | GARDENING | 8/28
[What Konoha really wanted to do was to go home. But she knows... She has to make the most of her situation. Has to try and stay positive the best she can. So, like she'd talked about with Nier... a garden seemed like a good idea. With the plants withering like they were planting didn't actually seem like it would work, but at least she could get the field ready? It seemed like something to do, at least, and hard labor is what Konoha did best.
So she gets to work. In the first few days she can be found out near the woods, sleeves tied back and a cloth wrapped around her forehead to keep sweat out of her eyes as she starts prepping the dirt. Digging out stones, ripping up dead roots, cutting away weeds, dragging a makeshift plow behind her to till the soil...
At the sight of anyone from the Circle, however, she takes a moment to give a friendly wave.]
02 | BATHHOUSE | 8/30
[All the plowing she's been doing works up a sweat, and it wasn't often she had the luxury of a bath big enough for jinba that wasn't... wading into the river. Not that there's anything wrong with rivers, but. The bathhouse at the temple is more luxurious than she's ever really tried before, and it's so comfortably hot???
She could be mistaken for a human woman at first glance, with all the steam, but the dark shadow in the water reveals her more equine half. That and the long black tail floating towards the top of the water. Sighing happily and resisting the urge to try and roll, Konoha lets her hair down from it's usual bun and sets about running her fingers through it to try and untangle it as she sinks a bit deeper into the water.]
Ah... This is nice.
03 | HELPING THE SICK | 9/5
[Konoha has never gotten sick when her parents or the other humans in the village had. She didn't really hear a lot about jinba getting sick at all, really... So she thinks it will be fine. She doesn't have enough education to know that this might be because, as similar as her upper body looks, a jinba and a human are different species, and not all sickness can cross those differences... She just knows that she's probably fine.
So she tries to help.]
Morning... I brought breakfast.
[She pokes her head in the door of one of the bedrooms in the Temple, smiling through the concern on her features and a steaming bowl of what looks like porridge in her hands.]
Feeling up to eating?
04 | KITCHEN STUMBLE | 9/12
[Fun fact for anyone studying this outbreak... Species doesn't matter. Jinba get sick, too.
She's been feeling tired, but... She's also been working hard as more and more people got sick. Hasn't really been sleeping well. The low fever, that... had been more concerning, but what could she do about it? She did tell someone, she wasn't trying to hide anything-
But she also didn't expect it to take a turn so fast. To be so clumsy as to catch a hoof on a stone, to send the basket of apples she'd been carrying rolling across the floor and her sprawling right after with a crash as her attempt to catch herself failed and only managed to knock cutlery off the counter.
She'll get up... She will. In a minute. Meanwhile, a lone apple rolls out the kitchen door.]
05 | HUMPTY DUMPTY | 9/17
[It's so hot. She knows it has to be because of the fever, knows she's supposed to sweat it out... but she still can't help the urge, anxiously twisting where she lies on the ground in her temple room to try and undo the bear hide wrap she wears tied about her waist, try and loosen the fit of her shirt as sweat beads on her dark skin.
Sometime in the last night... She's lost the strength to stand. Had gradually collapsed to her knees, then to her belly, and then to her side. She forgets how long ago. Long enough for the pillow she'd taken with her to soak with sweat, for her throat to parch and her stomachs to twist in protest, both starving for food and roiling to reject it.
The sound of a visitor... doesn't even really register.]

[ she'd probably be kind of heavy, sure, but she shouldn't be all that hard to pick up. 2B doesn't let go of Konoha as she eases back down. ]
There's something wrong with my body.
no subject
[That doesn't sound good. Konoha tries to readjust her legs, get reayd to lever back up herself.]
Is it like... how A2 said she should be faster but isn't anymore?
no subject
A2 said that?
[ so it's affecting both of them... but they can't get sick, so what is it?! ]
no subject
Yeah, on the metal world before. She said she shouldn't be slower than me.
no subject
On the other hand, 2B cares about this information quite a lot. At last, she lets go of Konoha's arms, standing up straight again. ]
... So there's something affecting our systems. [ she sighs, sounding frustrated. That's just great. But there's nothing she can do about it for now; she needs to concentrate on helping Konoha. ] I'm sorry. Can you stand up on your own?
no subject
[Systems was a weird way to refer to bodies, but, she thinks she gets it. That answer actually works for both things, too, so...
With a bit of effort, Konoha tries, fails, then manages to lunge forward powerfully enough that she hauls her rear off the floor, legs trembling a bit but she's up, gripping the edge of the counter for balance.]
Sorry to bother you like this-
no subject
Don't apologize.
[ when Hayame was sick, she'd been able to find a root for her to chew on that supposedly helped... maybe she could do something like that again. ]
What do you need? I'll get it for you.
no subject
Maybe, um- after we get these apples up, you could lend me a shoulder? Just for balance... ?
[She says "we", but maybe... bending down wasn't a great idea right now for her.]
I think I'll take a nap... I bet I'll feel better after I sleep...
no subject
I'll deal with the apples. [ a pause. ] Come on. I'll bring you back to your room.
[ she doesn't really know where her room IS, but she'll bring her there!! ]
no subject
So she puts her hand on 2B's shoulder.]
Thanks... it's just at the end of the main hall...
