[ aaaand we are just going over to the punch bowl after The Incident to fish out some ice for an ice pack and let everyone else in the room magically ignore this conversation.
unfortunately all the napkins here are paper and they don't exactly have a box of ziplocs out on the table, so after a few seconds of consideration, datz unties his dragon armband from his sleeve and wraps up some ice cubes in it to hold against hanako's newest bruise. ]
[ He didn't manage to defeat Ox, but he'll count that as 0.5/100, we'll get there someday
Hanako would've been fine just holding plain ice cubes to his face, which was kind of what he was imagining, so he's a little hesitant taking Datz's armband icepack. ]
Are you sure? It's going to get blood on it.
[ From his bloody nose. At least it's not broken ]
What'd you call it, Selda? I can ask Ox if they can get new games in here sometime.
[ They'll have to do with the current selection, though. Hanako looks around like he doesn't know where to start— he's never seen any of these other games, let alone play them. ]
[ back at the dorm... god. seeing that announcement on his phone definitely fucked him up a little, because whisper was right there with them where she should have been safe. ]
[ She was right there and that's what messed up the most. Everything was fine. It was a quiet evening, it was fine. It was...
Hanako's rubbing at his eyes as he approaches, like he doesn't want to be caught crying. It's not like they were close friends or anything, but... his Whisper... ]
[ well, datz absolutely followed quickly after ryuki brought hanako here, and probably just spent ten minutes arguing with a doctor in the hall or something.
anyway. he's here now, and going to come hold his hand, assuming they aren't both hooked up to ivs or something. ]
[ Funny because I wrote other starters with Hanako having an IV in place, but only the one. The doctor outside probably told Datz something about dehydration or malnutrition or something; Adlet's needle only had him unconscious for 2 or so hours, so he's just sort of drowsy by now. ]
I'm fine. My nose kind of itches...
[ Doctor's orders: do your best not to sneeze or you'll blow blood everywhere again ]
[ datz is probably just in the kitchen making some grilled cheese sandwiches or something for the both of them when up pops a stupid little memory (18:34 - 20:37)
after which he's just loudly laughing at it himself. ]
[ It's hard to tell what's more startling, the crack of the firecrackers or the boom of Datz's laugh each time they're set off. Hanako almost upends the frying pan jumping away from the panel. ]
[ sits on the edge of his bed, with the Vane card he got from Ryuki for behaving today. and for what? they would've turned to Kogi eventually, even without Hanako asking about his power.
