Who: Lulu and Skwisgaar the Elder.
What: Skwisgaar has something important he needs Lu to do.
When: This morning.
Where: Mini-Mordhaus, London.
Warnings: Swearing.



After ducking into a shop and asking for a nurse's outfit, she'd gotten a few odd stares and referred to a few other stores. Finally, after about twenty minutes she'd found one and was in a taxi en route to Skwisgaar's place.

She fairly jogged out of the cab, breathlessly telling the roadie that got the door that the older Skwisgaar was expecting her. Apparently, scantily clad women saying that wasn't really a rarity, and she was shown to him.

"Is everything all right?" She went over to hug him as soon as he was within sight.

"Thank you," Lulu murmured, mostly focused on the folder he'd handled her. She sat down on a couch, crossing her legs and opening up the folders, blinking. She didn't know what half of it meant, but none of the words sounded good.

"Do you have a computer? Or a dictionary?"

He nodded, and brought over his laptop for her before sitting down beside her, "Is gots of a dictionaries builds in. Is to improves at a voscrabblearies."

That was beside the point, however, and he let her take her time. He wasn't going to enjoy this - he already knew that much - but he was maintaining a level of apathy to most everything else in life, why not this?

Lulu tapped things into the computer, searching the internet and looking up words she didn't know. She sighed and closed her eyes, pinching the bridge of her nose. "You have something called Coronary Artery Disease. It's... a buildup of something called plaque in the arteries of your heart. You've probably had chest pain and shortness of breath lately, and it can lead to a heart attack."

She bit her lip, reaching out to squeeze his hand. "You won't like the treatments, or the lifestyle changes you'll have to make."

Skwisgaar listened and looked at her, somewhat nonplussed - he'd thought only fat people got heart attacks. And he was anything but. He put his other hand over hers and shook his head.

For once, the guy didn't have anything to say. He looked a bit lost, in fact.

She continued, breathing out slowly. "They're going to put you on a lot of medicine, to make it so your blood can go through your arteries, even with the blockages. And they're going to try to decrease your blood pressure with other medicine. If those don't work, then you're going to need to have surgery."

She didn't want to go into the surgical options, because they all scared her. Lulu marveled at how she probably looked more upset than he did. Swallowing hard, she continued to the parts she knew would probably upset him most.

"They recommend you... stop smoking, stop any drug use, exercise, and eat better." She licked her lips and shook her head. "I'm sorry."

He stood up then and scowled, "Dat's ain'ts fuckings possibles ats de leasts in de worlds! Stupids doctors thinks they knows on everythings dey don'ts knows on dats!" If he were any stronger (Say, as strong as Nathan), the coffee table would've been kicked over and the closest breakable thing would have been broken. At least the last half of that was done, as Skwisgaar picked up the nearly-priceless vase and threw it, smashing it against the closest wall. "FUCKS DATS."

He crossed his arms, "I eats plenties fines. I eats healthies foods ands don'ts eats nothings fatties or nothin's." Which was another reason why he couldn't wrap his mind around how this could have happened, fat people who ate nothing but fatty food got bad hearts, not him. He was fucking Skwisgaar Skwigelf, unbreakable and untouchable.

Lulu sat in relative silence, knowing full well that nothing she could say would fix anything. She couldn't magically make it better, she couldn't make him well.

Instead, she went over to the vase shrapnel and started to pick up the bigger pieces and set them aside. In a situation where she couldn't do much, she figured she'd do something.

He huffed and pulled her away from that, "Leaves it." He tugged her back to the couch and sat down, "Goes on. Whats is else." There had to be something else, something that explained how he could have gotten it.

He didn't factor in the decades of fairly sedentary living, the drugs, the smoking, or even the fact that his family (which he'd LONG since disowned) had a history of it.

And he suddenly felt a pang of guilt for blowing up in front of her.

Lulu sat back down, looking over at him and how scared he was. She kissed him on the cheek, sighing and wiping off a smudge of lipstick. "It's fightable, okay? It says here that you can beat this, and Yevon knows you're the most stubborn person I've ever met." It said a lot that someone existed more stubborn than Wakka.

She flipped through the pages for the cause. "The main causes are smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and other diseases which you don't seem to have."

The comfort helped, as much as it irked him to think about it. She was doing a damned good job of being there and being helpful. He nudged her, "Tolds you I isn'ts young. Hn?" He said with a weak smile.

But then she read off the list of things that could have caused it and he got indignant. "I ain'ts gots on a high plorfestorals." He huffed. "Buuut I has been a smokings for vurylongs times now." He scowled, "Ands dey is says on probablies is de other drugs I is does on." He was actually rather impressed that the doctor only had this bad news to give him. Generally when he went into a new doctor, they all marveled at how he was still alive, or at least walking. This one seemed to generally know he was a medical marvel at his age, with his track record.

"So I cans... gets over dis likes a coldsflu?" He had finally let that sink in.

She gave him a weak smile. "You're not young, but you're still ... Skwisgaar." She didn't know how to describe him anymore; he was her friend, but there was still an odd desire to flirt. She shook her head and made herself focus on the task at hand.

"It says here it's possible your cholesterol levels are high - apparently you have to exercise as well as eating right." Moving closer, she rest her head on his shoulder and held his hand. "You can sort of get over it like a cold - but you'll have to take more medicine, and do those other things that I said. Basically, the smoking and other things are sort of like... I don't know, inhaling cold germs all the time."

He hadn't really ever gotten over his fear of germs and he got a disgusted look. He put his other hand in hers and moved his closer arm around her waist, thinking it through as he gave the top of her head a kiss.

Had he been home, back in the time and world where he could be as reckless as he always had lived, this would have been no issue - they had the best medical team in the world, and transplants were just as common as flu shots, if not moreso.

He huffed a chuckle, "You knows. Backs when I is plays in Dethklok, Nathans always is was drinks so much thats he is was gettings a livers disease and dens he goes in for livers transplants abouts every halfs of a year. Tokis was hads of diabetes ons occasions but dey always were to fix hims ups. I overdoseds abouts a hundreds times but dey always is broughts me backs outsides of it. Pickle don'ts gots a fuckings things to worries on, he is does a fuckeds up thing backs before we is plays togethers and zombifieds on his organs." He held her silently for a moment. "We nevers was a worries on our healths acepts for de times we ain'ts fits into our owns clothings lines."

She smiled and didn't move her head at all, closing her eyes. He was warm, and it was nice to imagine that he was healthy. But when he detailed how they'd been able to be reckless before, she sat up.

"Where I'm from, Yuna could have cured you of this. There have to be healers here, Skwisgaar. If I'm here, there just... has to be." She blinked when she realized she was almost upset to the point of tears. She leaned back into him and stubbornly refused to wipe her eyes. She supposed that after losing Chappu and later being sent to a whole new world, it was understandable that she be upset at the idea of a sick friend. Thing.

Skwisgaar held her close. She was soft and careful with him, which was different from any female he'd had around for any period of time - save for Stephanie who still was oftentimes very stern just due to principal. And he was stoic. He had survived much, much worse things than whatever it was clogging up his veins. He visualized his arteries like the drain to his shower back in Mordhaus when it had gotten clogged up with his hair and whatever other gunk had gotten in it and he'd seen the plumber roadies cleaning it out. He shuddered. "Ugh. Clogs."

He looked down at Lulu to tell her that as well, and then realized how hard this was on her. He huffed and tugged her closer, nearly onto his lap, in fact. "Don't cries now, hn? I is lives through more horriblies worse things abouts my bodies dens dats, ja? I cans gets over dis, you knows. And mabies deres is a healers here dats is magics like you only with heals insteads of the lightnings, you is prafactsly rights on dat." He pressed a kiss to her cheek and smiled wryly. "Hey. Don't gets a worries on abouts me, Lulus. I goings to gets overs it."

She closed her eyes and let her tears slip down her cheeks, just enjoying a quiet moment where Skwisgaar would let himself be touched and where he'd let himself hold her. She chuckled. "Clogs are terrible. I'm starting to hate them myself."

Lulu laughed when he pulled her practically into his lap, nodding and letting her forehead rest on his. His words held some truth, and she nodded a little, laughing when he kissed her cheek. "You will, yes. And if you don't, I'll kill you myself." Killing someone who'd already died was an idle threat, but Lulu hated appearing weak.

He chuckled and pressed his forehead to hers, "You is tries on it and I comes back from deads and kills you as a zombies." He let his eyes close and he quietly sat there, thinking it all over.

It was a lot to take in. Especially for someone who didn't ever worry about anything. He knew he could beat it, it was just clogs. And if they had medicine that worked like little plumbers and flushed all those clogs right out, he'd take it. He never had issue with pills or shots.
This, however, was going to have to be kept quiet. He didn't want to worry the other guys or his young self - though the thought was there to tell his younger self about it just so he might avoid it. He shuddered to think about having to tell himself to do anything, he knew exactly how it would go down.
And then there was the whole having to exercise thing. Ugh. He couldn't even bear to think of how that might be anywhere near pleasurable. "I is wonders on if sex is a forms of an exercizings? You is does a rapstutitions movements and you breaks a sweats and is vury goods for de muscles and hearts and things, ja? Hn. Buts dens agains if its was... I wouldn'ts has of dis problems." He smirked, "Whats kinds of exercizings does they is wants me to does at? I don'ts does on the weightslifts or stupids joggings arounds in uglysuits."

"I am admittedly somewhat ineffective against zombies." She chuckled and let her hands run up and down his back in what she hoped was a soothing way.

She let him sit there in silence, and laughed when he asked if sex was exercising. "I think they do mean the running and the lifting weights. We'll have to think of something more interesting for you to do, hmm? Though I don't think sex is bad for you, though." She tried to think of what he could do that would work. "You could train to be a swordsman."

Skwisgaar's smile became a little bit more sincere and he chuckled softly, "I knows on how to does that all. I is learns waybacks in the times." However, since his days in Dethklok, he'd fallen out of practice, and hadn't attempted to even remotely work out in any sort of way.

"Ha. Likes Donnies Keehoties." He said. Old man with armor and swords.

Lulu's eyes widened. "Really. Well, that should be a good workout, you could practice that every day for an hour or so."

She didn't know who Donnies Keehoties was, but she poked him in the side to tease him. After a moment it occurred to her that sitting in his lap was probably not the best idea considering she had a boyfriend, and she sat down next to him, crossing her legs and snuggling into his side. "You could even try to teach me."

"I makes on a deals with you." He said, letting her readjust before draping his arm over her. "You is teachings me on hows to does a lightnings, and I is teaches you how to fights at peoples with swords."

He looked over at the door. "I is also gots on a roadies here dats is vury goods at combats weapons? She is gots crazy lots of knowings abouts dat sorts of things, she's brutal." He nodded and smirked, "We can all trains on it togethers, she is just trainings on our new roadies rights nows on fightings with swords and ja, he is mights be ables to be vury goods at keepings me ups to dates on dats."

She smiled and looked up at him. "That sounds like a good deal, though you might have a harder time getting me to learn the sword than I'll have teaching you to use magic." She looked around the room for a guitar. "I could try to teach you now, if you like."

She thought about what he'd said and nodded. "It'd be good for you to have someone here to make you practice."

"Ja, I is has on 359, I is kepts on her services untils she dies on de planets with de rests of dem." He smirked. "Sure, we learns on it laters though, hokay?

Lulu chuckled about him ending the world again and shook her head. "As long as you don't do that anytime soon." She stood up once he said that and nodded.

Standing up, she brushed off her new outfit. "I kind of like this. Maybe not the hat, but I should wear this more. And it's fine - you didn't mean to worry me, and I'm really quite flattered you trusted me with this." She squeezed his hand and pecked him on the cheek. "Let me know when you want to start training."

"I goings to talks on it withs de youngselfs and gets hims intosides of our deals aforcause if he is works on it too it mights helps a little." He held her hand and pressed a kiss to her forehead. "I trusts on you because I knows dats you won'ts gets all sorts of parentals, and you knows, stupids and depress ons abouts it." He smiled slightly, "Dats and who is betters to breaks on a bad news dens a vury good lookings persons in a vury, vury shorts skirts and cute garters, hn?"

He couldn't help but flirt.

"That would be nice, I think. I think you'd do better if you had people to practice with." Lulu smiled at the kiss on her forehead, and she squeezed his hand in return.

At his compliment, she looked down. "I like this outfit! It's quite cute. Is it too short to wear in public? And no, I won't worry too much - though I do think you should look into a white mage or a healer."

He slid his hand down her side then tugged down the skirt a bit more, just to see if he could cover her up more. "Hn. I... don'ts thinks is too shorts to sees on it heres buts ja, you don'ts wants to be wearings at it outsides a place acause you knows, peoples is mights thinks you is... you knows. Easy." Or for sale, either way, he didn't figure she'd like it.

"Goes and puts on a longers skirts and I will thinks it coulds be fine?"

Lulu blinked when he touched her side, sliding downward, but then laughed when he tugged her skirt down farther. "Okay, point taken. I might have a skirt like that at home." She giggled as his fingers on her thighs tickled, and she flailed.

"I'm a taken woman now, keep your groping north of the border," she teased.

He scoffed and held up his hands, "Completelys innocents, Lulus!" He was smirking, "Don'ts be so serious abouts it, I is likes your skins, you knows?"
He motioned to the door, "You is wants to goes and gets homes to change? I is was thinkings on checkings outs dat stores you run on? My niece got a you know, small kid to take cares of and I gunna gets him a toy. Or something."

She laughed at him. "Well, thank you, but the skin on my arms and face is pretty much the same as my thighs."

She thought about his idea and smiled. "You should stop by. I've got lots of things for small children, and I could put on something you think is acceptable, old man." That was an obvious bit of teasing, but she stuck out her tongue to make sure he knew it.

"Maybe I was, but just not on you." She grinned and winked at him, skipping ahead of him. "Would you like to get a taxi?" She took off the nurse's hat part of her outfit, idly fixing her hair.

Skwisgaar's brows raised at her rebuttal, amused by how quick on the draw she was, but followed out a moment later. "I thinks I catch ups with you?" He suggested, "I... really needs to talks at my youngselfs abouts dis."

He slid his hand through his hair and met up with her on the way to the front door. "Thank you, Lulu. You has been vury good to me."

"Of course - just ask for me if you can't find me." She tiptoed up to kiss him on the chek once they were at the front door, grinning. She trusted that he'd be stubborn enough to beat anything that came his way, and as such, she was trying not to worry too much.

"I didn't do anything I wouldn't do for any of my friends." She made a mental note to set aside some toys for him once she got to the store.
