Who: Hydracula, visitors
Where: Angerdome
When: Day 200, post WHAT WAS THAT!!!
What:

[Eventually Hydracula makes it back to the angerdome and promptly barricades themselves in (unless they went to Vulpecula dorms, perhaps). It is then that the most important question is asked:]

. . . Is everyone okay?

	Good! That's the way it should be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Slides back off the stool, almost immediately tense as his feet touch the floor.] Have you much here in the way of herbs? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-12-27 07:57 pm UTC (link)
	[frowns a little at that] We've got plants for burns, pain, sore muscles, coughs, nausea . . . What else . . . Surgeon's Bane for certain problems with the nerves and brain. That antiseptic moss, allergy herbs . . . the sleep berries and some other stuff that soothes sore throats a little. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Almost visibly cross-cataloguing as he heads into the kitchen.] A selection good in breadth, if not depth. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[turning to watch him] There might be more we haven't noticed yet. We should go look now that we've seen what they used back then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	For the moment, you should sit. [Sorting about the kitchen until he finds a suitable small pot to boil some water.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-12-27 08:28 pm UTC (link)
	Okay . . . What are you doing? [sitting in one of the chairs] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readbytwilight 2010-12-27 08:37 pm UTC (link)
	You are injured. You and Sparta both. [Opens a few herb containers, going as much by smell as sight.] I am making tea. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-12-27 08:44 pm UTC (link)
	We're fine . . . Watanuki gave us both some healing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The boy from Lacerta. Though I am at a loss as to how to place it, there is something familiar about him. [Still undaunted in this apparent tea making.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-12-27 08:54 pm UTC (link)
	What do you mean? [. . . well fine 8(] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readbytwilight 2010-12-27 09:09 pm UTC (link)
	Perhaps in direct opposite of your familiarity with this form; something beyond memory or shape, outside of reason and yet, undeniable. [. . . this kitchen is sorely lacking in anything even passably suitable as a strainer.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-12-27 09:11 pm UTC (link)
	That's . . . weird. Maybe he knows something about it. . . . What are you looking for? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readbytwilight 2010-12-27 09:18 pm UTC (link)
	Something with which to strain the leaves. Though they will settle to some degree on their own, the last cup will be far heavier. [Speaking of leaves, dumping a small collection into the simmering water and taking it from the hearth. The steam turns aromatic almost instantly.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-12-27 09:27 pm UTC (link)
	You could use some clean cloth. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readbytwilight 2010-12-27 09:31 pm UTC (link)
	A more difficult endeavour, given the heat of the water and permeability of the cloth. [Takes a spoon instead, and places a pair of their simple mugs on the counter beside the pot.] As for Watanuki, perhaps it would be best to speak with him later, as well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-12-27 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	. . . Next job we get, we'll ask for something better. Do you want to come with us when we go by there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readbytwilight 2010-12-27 09:44 pm UTC (link)
	[Pours the tea carefully, the back of the spoon directing a thin clear stream into each of the cups.] As odd as such travel may seem, I would not mind. What kind of job? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-12-27 09:54 pm UTC (link)
	[huh :\|a watching that idly, half expecting it to start spilling] It depends. River gave us one to play a prank once, and the last one we got was to ride the death bird. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readbytwilight 2010-12-27 10:09 pm UTC (link)
	If you pardon me saying so, that seems rather much for a tea strainer. [It's certainly not fast, but discomfort with the floor aside, his hands are sure.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-12-27 10:15 pm UTC (link)
	It is. The death bird one got us a lot of really useful stuff. Guillotine got his own weapon back for it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readbytwilight 2010-12-27 10:21 pm UTC (link)
	I would prefer that no life-endangering activities were undertaken for this. I will find something else to make do. [Sets the pot down, and hands one of the mugs to Scowl.] When it's cool enough, drink this. Until then, the aroma alone will be soothing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-12-27 10:23 pm UTC (link)
	Don't worry, we won't do anything that stupid just for something to strain with. [takes the mug and breathes in the steam] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readbytwilight 2010-12-27 10:28 pm UTC (link)
	The fact that you refer to it as such leaves me some measure of hope. [Picks up the second mug himself. Something in the aroma is reminiscent of green and living things, soothing if slightly strange.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-12-27 10:38 pm UTC (link)
	You shouldn't worry. We don't like being laid up like that. Hey, what'd you put in this? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
