[On the floor of the forest not too far from the southern barrier is something blue lying among the leaves. Emil decided to take Vyse and Asch's advice of finding something productive to do rather than moping around, but since he's not the type of person to always think things through, this means he's spent the past week banging on/trying to find a way through the barrier. Obviously, that didn't exactly work.

He's partially covered with leaves now thanks to the wind, though there's still enough of his outfit uncovered to be visible from a distance. It looks like he's been there for a little while. Poke/kick/tell him he's a moron?]

[he can choose not to eat it, but the option's gotta be there. And he hasn't eaten in a week, right? It'll be a few minutes but she brings the tea and the soup back over to him on a tray]

If you're sore, the tea should help. [it may also, you know, make him sleepy. ...Potentially]

[knightofratatosk]

Is it herbs?

[He's sniffing at it cautiously-- the last herbal stuff he had tasted pretty nasty, so he's suspicious that this will be similar. Still, he IS thirsty, meaning he'll probably drink it anyway.]

[action]

[corrinesbell]

Some of it, but you won't be able to taste it 'cause it's mint too. [which should settle his stomach]

[action]

[knightofratatosk]

Okay.

[Sipping at it now after blowing on it to cool it off a bit.]

[having some tea of her own. It's a ninja thing]

[knightofratatosk]

[It does taste a little bitter, but the warmth is soothing and helps settle his stomach somewhat.

... why does he feel so tired all of a sudden?]

[action]

[corrinesbell]

You should eat the soup if you can. Otherwise you'll just keep feeling sicker.

[action]

[knightofratatosk]

... oh, right...

[His head is feeling pretty fuzzy, though.]

[action]

[corrinesbell]

[c'mon Emil you can do it. Just a little bit before you pass out from...um, hunger!]

[action]

[knightofratatosk]

[Okay, he'll try to eat a little bit. Soup should be easy enough to stomach.]

[action]

[corrinesbell]

[she's good at miso! She's been eating it since forever, after all]

[action]

[knightofratatosk]

[And he'll eat about half of it before getting too sleepy to continue. It is good, though! He just... doesn't have much appetite right now.]

[action]

[corrinesbell]

[half is good!]

...You know you can stay as long as you need to.

[action]

[knightofratatosk]

I know.

... thank you.

[Oh wow, really wobbly now.]

[action]

[corrinesbell]

[with a hand on his shoulder to kind of guide him along to the idea...] Why don't you lay down and sleep for a while? You'll feel better.

[action]

[knightofratatosk]

[Don't worry, he doesn't need much coaxing to lie down on the couch and curl up in an awkward ball. He's so used to sleeping with someone else that it feels odd not to have Richter there.]

[action]

[corrinesbell]

[spreads the blanket from the back of the couch over him and then sits up on the arm of it. And as long as no one is watching she'll smooth his hair a little bit. Go to sleep Emil.]

[action]

[knightofratatosk]

[It's only a matter of minutes before he's fast asleep, and he'll probably stay that way for a while-- well, a few hours, at least.]

[corrinesbell]

[that gives Sheena time to get some things done. But she wants to be there when he wakes up]
