haori: (Carry on through the pain)

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.]

[Attracted to the pain, Sebastian smiles brightly. Oh, a soul like that would be lovely to stand next to. Instead of asking if he's okay like everyone else, he simply asks the generic question]

Do you need assistance?
hisbutler_bound: (And I'll hold out my hand to drag you)

[Sebastian would be surprised to know that. He's given the fact that many are already wary of him]

Tea is good for the soul. I'm more than happy to provide assitance should you change your mind, good sir. With tea even.
hisbutler_bound: (burn everything sebastian)

Especially with your predicament. [Just being able to be close to a soul that much in agony would be enough]

If it is not rude of me, and pardon me if it is, but may I ask what is wrong?

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]
hisbutler_bound: (how droll)

Ah, yes. I am quite familiar with that diagnoisis. It was rather common from the era I am from.

[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?

Such as? Once again, pardon me if I am being rude.

How kind of you.

[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.
hisbutler_bound: (only you)

So she is where you are from? You must be lucky to have such a skilled caretaker. She was most helpful with the young master when he was injured.

Yes, I must wholeheartedly agree.

No, forgive me. It's slipped my mind as well. I am Sebastian Michaelis.

It was a pleasure to meet you, Mister Ukitake. I won't take up more of your time.
