Cough 061 - [Video]

[haori]

[Ukitake is outside of his house, hair wet and water dripping off the clumped-together edges.  He looks tired, but...

...it's not raining on him.]

I've put up some barriers around the house.  If the weather doesn't get too horrible, they should hold and we should be dry.

[He looks off to the side and then points his PCD to the fish pond.  Which is getting rather soggy around the edges.]

My concern is if this floods.  Water travels underground and I could extend the kidou through the ground, but even I am unsure how deep it needs to go.  In the event that the water gets out of hand, we'll....need to drain the pond.

[And it sucks because he loves that pond, loves the fish inside, but if the house is in danger, then he will have to make sacrifices.  Dammit.]

Just keep an eye on things and try to stay safe. And dry-

[And he is interrupted by a cough, though it's not as horrible as it can be.

But.  The potential for worsening is always there.]

[He mumbles something incomprehensible.]

Hmm~?

[haori]

[He lifts his head a little bit.]

I don't know.

[Which might be an answer to both questions.]

[mere_shopkeeper]

I'll behave~

[Offline]

[haori]

I'm sure.

[Yeah, he's not even fighting anymore. Seems that cold hit fast.]

[mere_shopkeeper]

<sub>[Yeah, he's noticed, so... up to the bedroom you go!

After being scooped up in Urahara's arms, that is.]</sub>

[Offline]

[haori]

[Welp. Still no fighting. Just holding on.]

[Offline]

[mere_shopkeeper]

<sub>[And you told him it was nothing to worry about...

Into the bed you go.]</sub>

[Offline]

[haori]

[He scoots to the edge, making room for someone else.]

[Offline]

[mere_shopkeeper]

<sub>[Well, far be it for him to refuse such an offer.

Aaand this is familiar~]</sub>

[Offline]

[haori]

[Good Urahara.

But as soon as he gets comfy, there's a tickle in Ukitake's throat and he bows his head to keep his coughing away from Urahara's face.]

[mere_shopkeeper]

_{[Brb, getting a towel for that wet hair of yours. Also...]}

Would you perhaps have something for me to change into, Jyuushirou-san? My clothes seem to have gotten a little wet~

[Offline]

[haori]

[He blindly points to the dresser. Second drawer down should have a yukata.]

...I'm sorry. I should have done that before.

[Offline]

[mere_shopkeeper]

Hardly. You did, after all, offer me a blanket and a bed!

<sub>[Searching through said dresser now, eventually finding that yukata.




And now he's going to start changing. Right in front of Ukitake. Yep.]</sub>

[Offline]

[haori]

[...

Man, Ukitake shouldn't even be surprised anymore. Do what you will, Urahara.]

And a sick man in it.

[Wait, did he just imply he was offering himself?]

[Offline]

[mere_shopkeeper]

<sub>[You know, Ukitake, Urahara was planning on pretending to get himself tangled up in his clothes, but at that comment...

Yeah, not so much pretending anymore.]</sub>

Indeed.

[Offline]

[haori]

[...Sob.

He pushes himself up and holds out his hands toward Urahara.]

Come here.

[Offline]

[mere_shopkeeper]

_{[Stuuuumbling over and falling (gently) into Ukitake's lap now.]}

Here~!

[Offline]

[haori]

[Oof! He patiently helps Urahara get untangled.]

You're hopeless.

[But there's a hint of a smile in his voice.]

[Offline]

[mere_shopkeeper]

_{[A. Grin.]}

Without you~

[Offline]

[haori]

Clearly.

[He nuzzles the back of Urahara's neck when he gets the chance.]

[Offline]

[mere_shopkeeper]

<sub>[Mmm... He likes that.

Yukata (conveniently) forgotten!]</sub>

[Offline]

[haori]

[What a downfall.

And then he turns away to cough a little bit. Puh.]

[Offline]

[mere_shopkeeper]

<sub>[Oh dear...

Settling into bed before leaning over Ukitake's lap and fishing around. Search search sear-- Aha!

It's an orange!]</sub>

[Offline]

[haori]

[Yeah, still juuuust on the verge of hacking over here, but when he finally gets it under control and sees that orange-

...Oh for the love of. Not this again.]
