20 - [video] Fog and free meat

[forged_anew]

[The video turns on to show an expanse of fog, moving to point at the ground where something shadowy is visible through the mist]


The fog really does mess with your sense of direction. A minute ago I was only a few steps from Horton... Haru especially, maybe you shouldn't wander around.

Anyway... I found this body. Looks like one of the monsters, but it's pretty badly chopped up. It seemed unusual. Any idea who or what could've done this?


[He takes a few steps closer, nudging the shadow with his foot and panning the camera around. Whatever it had been, it was pretty big, and there were several lumps of it scattered around. Overall, not a pretty sight, and after a few more moments, Zuko turns the camera back towards himself. He's wearing a slightly disgusted expression, but otherwise looks thoughtful]


Anyone want to come over here and help me drag some of this home? I'm not one to refuse free meat.

Wonder what monster tastes like.

[forged_anew]

Want some? You're welcome to come over once I get some of it back.

[moarcowbell.livejournal.com]

Maybe later. I'm at the hospital.

[forged_anew]

Is everything ok?

[moarcowbell.livejournal.com]

Rin passed out.

[forged_anew]

What happened? Is she sick?

[moarcowbell.livejournal.com]

Yeah. She's always kinda unhealthy. She probably wasn't eating again.

[forged_anew]

That's not good... especially in Discedo...

Let me know if I can help in any way.

[moarcowbell.livejournal.com]

I appreciate the thought. Hope the doctors can help.

[forged_anew]

Yeah...

Hey, uh... that Dr. Muraki I was seeing, I'm not so sure about him anymore. People have been saying really suspicious things.

Maybe you should stay away from him in particular.

[moarcowbell.livejournal.com]

I won't let him lay his hands on her.

[forged_anew]

Good.

I hope everything turns out alright.

[moarcowbell.livejournal.com]

If I can find someone to make something, maybe I can get her eating again.

[forged_anew]

Minato's wife, Kushina, is a really gook cook. And she'd probably be willing to help.

Do you want me to ask her for you?

[moarcowbell.livejournal.com]

Depends on if she knows how to make gelatin.

[forged_anew]

She might. I'll ask.

[moarcowbell.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't want to trouble you.

[forged_anew]

It's fine, Haru.

I'll let you know as soon as I find out, ok?

[moarcowbell.livejournal.com]

You're a pretty good guy.

[forged_anew]

[a soft laugh]

Don't tell anyone though. It's a secret.

[moarcowbell.livejournal.com]

a bff secret?

...pretending Zuko knows what that means. I'm sure Haru's told him by now

[forged_anew]

Something like that, yes.

lol okay

[moarcowbell.livejournal.com]

I can dig it.
