[this one's certainly seen better days, having been holed up in his room for a few days trying to recover, but now he's more or less bandaged up and well enough to be up and about - he shuts the door behind him silently, glancing back at it with a frown.]

... Better safe than sorry.

[that said, he starts heading down the hallway. it's a rather slow process.]

[ooc; relatively relevant (and redundant).]

*he doesn't know about the attack, since Ri only told him you weren't feeling very well to keep him from worrying; he pulls Rikka's door to and turns to where you're walking towards your room*

I... I get the feeling there's something you're all not telling me.

[bourgeons.livejournal.com]

[flinch.]

That's my fault. I just really didn't want you to worry.

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

*smiles a little bit*

I know. Come on, you wanna tell me what's going on?

*goes to sit in a big, comfy chair in the common room*

[bourgeons.livejournal.com]

[smiles back, a little pained.]

All right, but .. I have to leave after I tell you.

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

*raises an eyebrow*

Why is that?

[bourgeons.livejournal.com]

Well, I --

[maybe he should sit down for this one. Sora plops down surprisingly quickly.]

... I fought a Namine. There was -- something wrong with her, and. I think it's contagious.

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

*his expression is filled with concern*

What was wrong with her exactly? Did she give it to you?

[bourgeons.livejournal.com]

I don't really know how to describe it. It was like something turned her into a rabid animal or something.

[lifts is shirt slightly; his whole torso is bandaged.]

She did that with her hands. That's why -- if I do have whatever it is -- I want to make sure I'm alone.

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

I see.

*gives you a tender look*

But 'bug, you haven't got a thing to worry about. Your Heart is too Light. Such a thing could never come over you. I'm sure of it. But thank you, for trying to protect our family.

[bourgeons.livejournal.com]

[smiles a little, and scratches his cheek.]

I know, but .. I'd feel better if I just -- went and hid somewhere for a little while, you know? I don't want to take any chances.

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

*it's obvious that he feels hesitant about letting you do this for any period of time*

I... see. But if you stayed here, you'd be safe. You're not even sure you're infected or not.

[bourgeons.livejournal.com]

... It's not my safety I'm concerned about.

[pushes himself up slowly.]

What if I do have it? What if I spread it?

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

I know, Sora. I know. But...

*sighs a little, resigned*

You have a good head on your shoulders, and I can't make you stay if you want to leave. If you do, then be careful.

[bourgeons.livejournal.com]

I won't be gone long. I promise.

[reaches out to hug Sora tightly.]

So don't worry, okay?

[mamaxsky.livejournal.com]

*nods a little and pats your shoulder*

Ah, well I'll worry anyways.

*he smiles so you know he isn't mad, just... conflicted, and turns to go back to bed, but not before hitting those wounds with a Curaga*

[bourgeons.livejournal.com]

[he's plenty conflicted about it as well, but ultimately, Sora has decided that the safety of his family is more important. better safe than sorry, after all.]

I'm sorry.

[that's all he says though, and he turns to leave, shutting the door behind him quietly.]
