[Accidental Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

[This isn't the first time Emil has returned home to an uncomfortably quiet house. It's not unusual for H to be out somewhere during the day, but there's something strange about today, a weird feeling in the house that causes a sinking sensation in the pit of Emil's stomach. Hoping against hope, he's going to head upstairs and open the door to his housemate's bedroom... only to have his worst fears confirmed.

Once again, his journal falls to the ground with a thud, popping open to record a strained, shaky voice.]

N-no... no, not again... no... please...

[OOC: I know, I'm still on hiatus, but Emil wouldn't not react to his housemate vanishing.]

... then maybe just some green tea would be best.

[corrinesbell]

Just go pick something.

[knightofratatosk]

S-sorry!

[Scrambling off to the kitchen now.]

[corrinesbell]

[ouch. She didn't mean to sound angry. It's hard to be careful when you sound like someone's holding your nose hostage]

[knightofratatosk]

[It's not your fault, Emil is just very... jumpy right now. Anyway, once he gets the water boiling (and figures out where the tea is), he'll come back out with a hot cup of green tea.]

[corrinesbell]

Thanks.

[without looking at him]

[knightofratatosk]

Here you go.

[Handing her the cup now.]

[corrinesbell]

[she'll try to take it without looking too because why stick her foot in her mouth again?]

[knightofratatosk]

Careful, make sure you don't spill it...

[corrinesbell]

[sniff] It's no big deal, I did this blind.

[knightofratatosk]

And you didn't spill anything at all that whole time?

[corrinesbell]

Not when people'd make me tea.

[knightofratatosk]

Oh... r-right, that must've happened a lot while you were blind.

[He'll sit back down next to her on the couch.]

[corrinesbell]

[Mmmmm, tea. Green is one of her favorites. ...Too bad it's more like a sensation of hot than a taste]

You didn't want any?

[knightofratatosk]

Huh? No, I'm fine, but thanks for asking.

[corrinesbell]

You can, if you want. We've got a lotta stuff in the kitchen.

[knightofratatosk]

That's okay, I'm... not really hungry or anything right now.

[corrinesbell]

Are you gonna make a sick person force you to eat?

[knightofratatosk]

I had lunch earlier--!

[corrinesbell]

What'd you have?

[knightofratatosk]

Just a sandwich made out of the leftover ham from last night...

[corrinesbell]

[...that's satisfactory. Sniff]

[knightofratatosk]

Do you want anything to eat?

[corrinesbell]

Nope. I can't even taste the tea.

[knightofratatosk]

... right. I knew that.
