[Dealing with the on-and-off blizzard for these past days must've been difficult, even with the times when the weather cleared out for a while and navigating the islands became possible... Hopefully you took advantage of those moments, because rather than things getting easier, it's about to get a lot worse.

It isn't only that there's been an avalanche of sorts overnight - how, given the lack of mountains around, is a mystery, but what else would you call the sudden heaps of snow currently piled up all over the housing area, drowning the individual domes so that they're barely even visible anymore?

It isn't just the fact that the power, or magic keeping things working, has been going out for hours on end, leaving the underground areas pitch-black - much more so given that the sun seems to refuse to come out, making the overall atmosphere one of dull grays at best, complete darkness at worse.

Or even that the creatures which could be found outside seem even more restless, making venturing outside for those who manage a way out of the tunnels (or who are unfortunate enough to arrive in the middle of this) even more dangerous.

No, it will surely feel like something's actively working against the people currently in the world, when several of them suddenly fall ill. With the sudden cold and bad conditions, one might be expecting possible colds and such things, but surely getting so ill so quickly isn't normal. Nor is it to be unresponsive to medication, for those who are unlucky enough to end up that way. Hopefully those left standing and able to work will be enough to handle things until it all ends...]

[--Oh. Sebastian's head snaps up. Right. Things.

He's... probably not allowed to stand up to inspect, is he? Instead he cranes his head to get a good look - and luckily his vision has cleared somewhat since he's no longer standing up or walking around like a moron - and after a few moments of that, he nods his (defeated) approval.]

That will do. Thank you. [That gets a thank you, but not helping him to a chair or caring if he collapses? Okay.]

[He thinks for a moment (or... tries to).]

...There was something that I meant to...

[Something he meant to say to her. What was it?

...............

It'll come to him. On a more immediately relevant train of thought:]

...I will retire to my quarters. [You win, you win (but he cleverly said nothing about how long he'll rest!!). He'll crawl there on all four or something.]

	Yeah. I think that's the best idea. [Good job getting to that conclusion all on your own, mister.] Do you want help getting there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Good job getting to that conclusion all on your own, mister. Spoken like a true bully. Who was it that said he couldn't leave the chair until he agreed to lie down?] Am I allowed to get up from this chair regardless of what answer I give?

	It depends. [She's not about to force him to lean on her or anything, but she's going to step in if he looks wobbly enough to fall or faint.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[What Chloe says: "It depends". What Sebastian hears: Not "no". A k a "yes". Which means he pushes himself up to a standing position (he certainly doesn't want help getting home, after all), which he seems to handle just fine.] Thank you, but I will be fine. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	servingdinner 2017-06-06 09:34 pm UTC (link)
	[And since he managed to get up without help and has managed to stand upright for one whole second, clearly it's safe to set off at his usual brisk walking pace instead of taking it slow and careful. Sebastian pushes his cold sweat-soaked bangs out of his face and starts walking. He handles the first three steps just fine!] (Reply to this) (Parent)

	[--But apparently Sebastian's body isn't entirely prepared to handle the sudden tallness that is Sebastian abruptly standing up (or possibly it's the full speed ahead that's the issue). The point is that, after those first three successful steps, Sebastian's legs kind of give out.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Yeah, she saw that coming from miles away. She doesn't even bother to protest when he starts walking, just follows after him and ducks swiftly once he starts to wobble, throwing his arm around her shoulders and supporting his weight.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[/FAILS]

[/THINKS ABOUT HOW MUCH HE FAILS as he hangs off Chloe and instinctively takes support with his free hand against her shoulder. What an unbelievable disgrace to demon butlerdom Sebastian is when he can't even fight off a magical sickness literally no one else can fight off. Pathetic.]

[He's so busy hating everything that for some ten seconds or so he says nothing and doesn't try to move (and thankfully makes no attempt to push Chloe away). ...Either that, or he's busy trying to banish the dancing spots of light away from the corners of his vision. The end result, either way, is that Chloe is spared further nonsense for those ten or so seconds. Eventually he croaks out:]

...It is only a play at influenza. [At least that was Ciel's diagnosis last time. Influenza, magically induced or not, should not render a demon so utterly useless.

Don't ask who he's trying to convince or bargain with.]

	[Sighs out. SOME PEOPLE...] Yeah, I'm sure. [Whatever, you loser, at least you aren't fighting her off. Waits a little while longer before she starts moving, leading him along carefully.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He probably doesn't lean on her as much as he should, all things considered, but at least he manages this moving ahead business with her help, at first in silence.

Sebastian has this thought, see. Brace yourself, it's a mind-blowing thought: maybe if he had gone home earlier, he would have been saved a lot of humiliation. Anyway. Eventually he mutters:]

Right, I... [That thing he was going to tell her. He remembered.]

You might sooner wish to spend your efforts on Mr Morningstar. He stopped by, earlier.

[This statement makes sense, probably.]

	[...] ... Don't tell me he's also being stupidly stubborn. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	servingdinner 2017-06-09 05:22 pm UTC (link)
	Huh? [he says absently. Who else is being stupidly stubborn?] No, no... He was "dying". He could not get enough sympathy, I believe. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ohdetective 2017-06-10 04:23 pm UTC (link)
	... Sounds like him. I'll have to check in on him. [S I G H.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Being what he is, it is not like he will die from a simple sickness, of course... You see? He too is like this, so it cannot be natural.

[Normally Sebastian wouldn't talk about "what Lucifer is", because... demon bro code, but his head is only screwed on so straight right now. Saying Lucifer will survive is also kind of contraproductive to his earlier attempt to make Chloe direct her attention away from himself, but well. See earlier point.]

I truly do not see why he came to me for sympathy. [Nevermind he mostly wanted food...]

	ohdetective 2017-06-11 08:56 pm UTC (link)
	[... Long sigh.] Right. Because he's the devil. [Can you hear how convinced she is of that by the tone of her voice? In any case,] Supernatural or not, you're all still resting. You saying you didn't give sympathy, then? ["No sympathy for the devil" joke goes here.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

servingdinner

Right; of course he would have told you...

[Can you hear how convinced she is of that by the tone of her voice? ...Evidently, no. Too hard to walk and decipher sarcasm at the same time.]

And of course not. I would not... not for something so insignificant. Certainly not to him.

[He doesn't sound angry or bitter saying this, it's just... he's not a sympathetic person.]

	servingdinner 2017-06-12 10:37 pm UTC (link)
	Huh...? [Sebastian once again asks very intelligently. "That's understandable" isn't the usual response he gets...] Well, he... in the end, what he mostly wants is company, is it not? It's... that is all he is ever truly after. [Does he mean "company" or "~~company~~"? Very unclear, that.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ohdetective 2017-06-13 04:35 pm UTC (link)
	[S- sighs a little, since her mind goes in the absolute worst direction for her to go.] Well. Certain company, at least. [!!!1 But you'd know all about that, scorned lover.] I get it. I'll check in on him later once I'm settled with you here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Anyone will do, I am sure, [he mutters in response. Why else would Lucifer come to hang with Sebastian, otherwise? So emotionally needy, Lucifer is.

They've finally reached Sebastian's (formerly also The Supreme Kai of Time's) house. Sebastian fumbles with the key for a few moments but he manages!! to open the door all on his own. See? He's fine. Needs no more help.]
