10. [Video] | Backdated to March 30 | Late morning

[timelessummoner]

Good morning. For anyone who might be concerned, it appears Nagi has been sent home. From what I have gathered, she should be relatively safe there.

On another note... [Raidou frowns.] I would appreciate any advice on taking care of a patient. My partner is sick and while it doesn't appear to be very serious, I want to make his recovery as speedy and comfortable as possible. If anyone has any suggestions, please leave a response as soon as possible--

[His voice is cut off by Alucard's, who sounds slightly hoarse.]

You make it sound as though I have an incurable disease, detective. I am perfectly fine. I just... need... sustenance.

You need sleep, Alucard-san. I told you to stay in bed!

I slept all day yesterday!

And yet you are still ill. Which means you need more sleep. Get back to bed.

[He turns back to the camera, looking slightly irritated.]

And if I could have advice on how to settle down an unruly patient, I would be grateful. [The video cuts off just as Alucard starts to make an indignant response.]

Raidou Kuzunoha. Pleasure to meet you, Aqua-san.

You knew Nagi, then?

[blue_wayfinder]

We spoke a few times.

She seemed like a nice girl.

[timelessummoner]

Yes... She is the kind to help others at her own expense. [There's a hint of nostalgia in the way he talks about her.]

[blue_wayfinder]

I could imagine her doing that, yes.

[She falls silent for a moment.]

...it's never easy to lose people, even when we know they're going back to somewhere safe.

[timelessummoner]

You are right... But I suppose we can only move on.

[blue_wayfinder]

It's what they would have wanted.

And besides...I don't think we've really been separated. I think, as long as we hold onto them here, [She places a hand over her heart.] As long as we keep our friends in our hearts, we'll always be connected.

[timelessummoner]

In our hearts...

[That's what had saved him before, wasn't it? Those bonds he had, even before coming here...]

You're right. It's easy to forget that, sometimes. [Raidou seems somewhat cheered up, if a little melancholy.] Thank you.

I'm glad I was able to help.
