Cough 041 - [Accidental Video]
[The feed flickers on and shows a familiar countertop and a familiar white-haired man, though his haori is nowhere to be seen. Ukitake once explained how to make ochazuke with hand gestures in that same kitchen. This time, however, there is a tea cup and steaming kettle and Ukitake slowly pours the water into the cup. He doesn't look too happy like he usually does though, and coupled with that melancholy is something else-
A very familiar cough.
The kettle is set down loudly on the counter as his free hand covers his mouth, the coughs violently shaking his body. They last for a few seconds, painful rasping sounds, and eventually thin lines of red stream through his fingers. As the coughing subsides, he pulls his hand away from his face and wipes his bloody lips with the side of his already stained hand.
Leaning against the counter, he tentatively takes a deep breath, fortunate that his lungs give him that much of a respite. Of course, everyone who knows Ukitake also knows that respite is rare and won't last long.]

Do you need assistance?
[Video]
I am fine, thank you. I just need rest and time to recover.
[Video]
Tea is good for the soul. I'm more than happy to provide assitance should you change your mind, good sir. With tea even.

I've noticed a lot of coughing among residents. Something with the lungs. [It's a tiny lie. Ciel's the only one with asthma and with the events, it gets pretty bad]
[Video]
It is a lung problem, a...bacteria, I believe.
[Oh look, have some more coughing.]
My case seems to be isolated just to me, though.
[Video]
[Absently he'll consider Ciel, then ask]
Is there anything to tame such violent coughs in this place, or would someone with lung problems essentially be on their own?

[He pauses suddenly, a hand raised toward his mouth in preparation for another fit. But as he swallows thickly, he shakes his head, dropping his hand. He's been spared for now.]
Tea helps, and I've been given a tonic to help keep this at bay. Rest, of course, is helpful.
[Video]
[His eyes narrow a little but it's merely in curiousity, espeically when it looks like he might have another fit, but he seems to stop and listen]
A tonic? I am to assume Miss Unohana provides such a tonic? Rest, but of course, though that is usually the latter after a fit.

Ah, please forgive me. I seem to have forgotten my manners. I am Ukitake Jyuushirou.
