[Closed] Time to talk

Who: Taiki and various people (Wen Qing, Sarai and Gyousou, Tidus and Inigo)
Where: Various carriages (see threads)
When: Fiddlesticks latter half, after Wester's ICP post
What: Taiki takes Wen Qing food in the med bay. Taiki speaks to Sarai about current events. Probably the next day Tidus decides to teach Taiki and Inigo to play badminton.
Warnings: Mentions of murder and torture though nothing will be graphic or detailed. Individual threads might have more warnings than that.

For Wen Qing (and anyone else in medbay)

He had spent a good few hours wandering the corridors, helping those he could and trying to do things to make anything better.

Of course he can't actually make anything actually better. It is beyond him. But he can try and help people through it. For a creature who so despises blood and violence he has seen far more than his fair share of it. He is not innocent in any sense of the word.

So he helps and listens until his heart feels like it has been cut into a hundred pieces and still he continues because sometimes there is very little that can be done except listen to a person's pain.

He had stayed out of the way of the medical bay, knowing that there at least he would be more a hinderance than a help. But as the hours ticked by he went to the kitchen and began preparing some simple food.

Nothing too difficult or time consuming to eat. Nothing too heavy. He made green tea to go with it and carefully carried it back to the medical carriage.

He looked through the door before knocking, not wanting to disturb her if she was in the middle of something delicate. But then gently knocked.

Standard: For Gyousou and Sarai

It had been a long day and finally Taiki had found his way to Gyousou's side where his king sat in the standard coach. They were sat at one of the table seats, the book Creatures of the Void open between them as they made notes in their notebooks.

They might just be myths and legends but it was more than the nothing of information they had about anything else.

Taiki was struggling to concentrate though often just staring blankly at the page, not reading at all.

The next day: Standard again!

Even with everything else going on Taiki hadn't forgotten about Inigo and his friend's own pain. He made an effort to seek him out and spend time with him.

Quite nervously he had asked if Ingio would mind if he painted him and was surprised when Inigo had agreed. Even more surprised when it seemed Ingio was good at modeling.

Then again he was a prince, it was perhaps not that surprising. He must have had to sit for paintings before.

They were sat either side of a table, Taiki's art case open in front of him, a piece of paper he had borrowed from the printer in front of him, the start of a portrait.

Yes, exactly, Taiki, isn't it strange? Now who is the one expressing favouritism here, huh?! This is discrimination against Inigo's friendship affection!

Thankfully Inigo doesn't feel too bad about it this time, since Tidus at least doesn't make fun of him or anything of the sort. Even if Tidus' reaction still isn't ideal, he at least doesn't seem annoyed about the hand holding, nor does he attempt to pry off Inigo's hand, so.. you know what? Inigo will take that. He'll chalk this up as at least a slight victory in his book.

Inigo only finally lets go of Tidus' hand at Taiki's question, letting out a 'pffft' sound.

"I'm fine." Granted, he would have said that even if he had been bleeding profusely from the forehead.. but Inigo looks like he's okay. "Let's get back to the game!"

taiki has nicer hands, deal with it.

He's not going to sigh with relief once Inigo lets go of him, but he does sure feel somewhat better about it--like a guy who was just put under a test and didn't balk when put through it! Like Inigo making fun of him... ugh, whatever, it didn't matter!

Tidus takes a quiet breath and turns to walk back into place, facing away from the pair allowing him to gain back his cool. "Easy mode's gonna be over now, so you two better prepare! Let's try knocking the shuttles far as we can, and see how hard we can hit it across! I'll move out, you two stay around where you are!"

It does its job, that time and the focus back on the game. He's on the side with more of the shuttlecocks, taking out a few from the cupboard and jogging just a little in, but creating a fair distance from where he was before. Taiki and Inigo are gonna help him experiment with badminton...!

Maybe Inigo should be a little more wary about this talk of hitting the shuttlecocks hard, considering his little accident from a few moments ago.. But much like a dog that keeps running into the same glass door over and over, Inigo doesn't even bat an eyelash at the idea of having to face these things again. Whatever! He's fought much bigger things!

So with a grin at Taiki and Tidus, he nods.

"Let's get going!"
