I require ... assistance.

[ A series of deep coughs, before the feed ends.

ooc: I have no idea what is going on with my icons. It says different keywords and then shows the same angry one? I have no idea. I'm sorry. ]

Ah, what kind of assistance do you need?

Ah, what a sweet voice for these tired ears to hear...

Um, I'm glad to be of help?

I-Is that all you need from me?

Do you know of the methods of healing in this time?

I have some medical knowledge but what's wrong? I heard that you were coughing so...are you sick sir?

Sick since birth... it only grew more and more into a condition as I aged.

Oh, I'm so sorry sir...I didn't know it was that bad.

I am not a doctor but you can go to the clinic? They know a lot more than I do about this... [And at times like these, Fuuka wishes that perhaps she should have switched over to being a doctor...]

That is where my issue comes into play.

The most that could be done for me before was to allow me to be comfortable until my eventual demise in agony... there's no point of me going if that is all I am going to hear.

Would you not agree?

[If this were video, he would be able to see that she was shaking her head]

No, I believe that would make it even worse. It must have been difficult to hear something like that every single time that you go...

Indeed.

I would rather not here it in this time and place, too.

Um...might I ask exactly what are the symptoms of your condition?

I know it might not help if it the hospital can't be of much help but...

Do you know what leprosy is, child?

Yes, I have learned about it from my parents and from textbooks.

There are some treatments for it but for the most part, it...it still stay with you.

Then you know of my condition.

[There was a pause]

...The most we can do now is give you antibiotics and some cream so that your skin will heal. We can also give you some medicine so your muscle won't be as sore as they were before...

I shall not go too greatly into my condition, but it does sound better than being made comfortable.

If that's the case, then um...maybe you should go to the clinic after all?

I don't think they would mind! After all, you are here helping them so...it might be the least they could do.

Yes...

My disease was not nearly as damaging in my world... here, it is like I am becoming but a corpse.

Ah, what do you mean by that?

For one so young, do you truly wish to know the extent of my disease?

[There was a pause. What could she say to that? She has heard how difficult it was for someone to have such a disease and she wants to help but...what could she do?]

I have seen a lot of things in my life that could be considered frightening and this could be o-one of them. However, it doesn't mean that I'm not going to stop if someone needs help.

How very noble... [ He coughs harshly. ]

My eye sight is fading. I've lost the ability to walk years ago... I find transportation now is by a chair with wheels. The agony of these lesions wrap tight around my body... covering it and my face... breathing is a chore, in and of itself. All I can do is cover this body with bandages to hide the sores from the sight of others... even as they continue to fester beneath.

So you see... when I ask my questions... I wish to know what can truly be done for a wretch such as myself.

I...I can't imagine how it must feel. I...never been in a situation like that before...

But I honestly don't believe that you're as useless as you think you are. [How can she can relate to that] I'm sure there are a lot of things that you can do that most people couldn't!

Perhaps, perhaps...

You are most kind.

Ah...

It's not a problem! I'm just glad that I could help somehow!
