Oдин / Video // Aпрель 8

[Good morning, Death City! Have an injured, unfamiliar teenager on your network this morning!]

I have a few questions.

[Gee, someone sure is to the point.]

First of all: Why do the sun and moon have faces?

[This, ladies and gentlemen, is the kind irritability that comes up when you don't get a good night's sleep. He would have a hard enough time just trying to get asleep considering that yesterday he showed up in a place half-way across the world (as far as he knows) instantaneously without any warning and a barely comprehensible excuse. But the feeling that someone was watching him a little too intently all night sealed the deal, and now Sasha is functioning on the half-hour of sleep he managed to get right before dawn.]

Second: Why is everything around here named so morbidly?

I know America is supposed to be the land of the backward, but could you at least tone it down for the newcomers? Sudden spacial displacement is jarring enough to begin with, trust me.

Third...

[He lets out a disheartened sigh.]

I'm trying to get to the clinic to get some stitches looked at. Two sets of conflicting directions have led me to...[He looks over his shoulder, and continues flatly:] "Death City Heights". [He turns back to the communicator.] So if someone could show me there, I'd appreciate it.

[The request is followed by a long, awkward silence of staring blankly at the communicator, then finally he mutters:]

Я говорю с зеркалом.

[And that's when his message ends.]

[Her answers just give him more questions to ask.]

...Death God?

[He's still in the vicinity, but he's trying to find somewhere to shelter himself from the sun. He can feel himself getting burned...]

Mhm! Shinigami or something... anyway, it was Kid's dad.

Shinigami.

[Yes, Sasha knows the word, but it doesn't make anything any clearer for him.]

The sooner I give up trying to make sense of this place...I might be better off.

[Ignorance is bliss, isn't it?]

It's a little hard to get at first... well, okay, there are still a few things I don't get or don't fully agree with, but there's at least getting the basics.

[She's near Death City Heights now, looking around.]

[He'll just be hanging out under a balcony. He waves at her, recognizing her appearance instantly. And, as if there had been no break in the conversation:]

How long have you been here, then?

[She waves upon seeing him and gives him a smile]

Hm, around two weeks now. It's been really busy since I've gotten here.

So I've witnessed.

[Unfortunately, he doesn't return the smile. If he was in a better mood, he would have.]

I imagine the clinic has been crowded because of it.

It is, but the problem isn't really treating them. It's trying to make sure they don't try running away.

[She waves for him to follow and starts leading the way]

Everyone's really stubborn. I know being in the clinic isn't really fun, but they just extend their recovery time by trying to leave especially if its through the window.

Are they injured in ways that require a long stay, or is that the policy for anyone that needs to come in for treatment?

['Cause, hey, this is another country! Maybe another planet! Who knows how they handle their patients!]

Well, no. People who come to the clinic are usually returning from a mission and injuries vary because of the kishin eggs. Sometimes they have to stay for a few hours for stitches and sometimes they have to stay because of poisoning or broken bones.

Right. And those missions are why we were brought here.

...I'm used to that kind of thing, but they could have at least waited until I finished my conversation.

Hmm, mostly it seems like.

... What was your conversation about?

None of your business.

[While the words themselves are rudely dismissive, he says it in a tone without a rough edge; he simply doesn't want to talk about it, especially to someone he's just met. Maybe later?]

Okay.

[Hey, it could've been a casual conversation, but she won't ask again.]

Here it is. [They finally arrived at the large, barn-shaped clinic called Horrorspital.]

Really? I think I went by this place earlier--

[Horrorspital.

Sasha glares at the name for a while before bringing his hands up to his face and exasperatingly sighing into them.]

...Fine.

[He's just too sleep deprived to have much tolerance for these puns today.]

[Well, she only came after it's establishment. She can't do anything about the name.]

[Rosalia leads him inside to the waiting area]

Okay, so you wanted your stitches examined. I can do that once I've checked in or I can find a doctor.

I'm in no hurry; I can wait for you.

[Trust her with your medical issues but not your completely mundane conversation. You're a winner, Sasha.]

Alright! Ahem, please wait here and I'll be with you momentarily!

[Off she goes to clock in and wash her hands. Also, she needs to check up on other Guests she was assigned to. Hm...]

[In the meantime, Sasha will find a seat to wait in. If she takes a while, Sasha might start dozing in his slouched posture, though with particular effectiveness.]

[It's about thirty minutes before she returns, ready and hands washed again. She had to wash the therapy wolf, but that's something else entirely.]

[Ah, it's going to be so rude waking him up, but he wanted to have his stitches looked at. She gives him a small shake.]

[He looks up at her as soon as she touches him.]

Ah, are you ready for me?

[It feels like it was only 10 minutes to him.]

[Her hands shoot back and she nods]

Mhm. This way please. [To one of the small, makeshift offices they go.]

[He nods back, following her to the office she brings him to.]

[She nods when he enters]

Which stitches do you want examined?

I just have these, [he gestures to the bandage around his shoulder and upper arm] but I suppose the rest of the bandages should be changed as well.
