❄ 002: vertical cell phone video

[pitch_slap]

[The video is shaky and cell-phone-like, somebody fumbling with a slick smartphone made even slicker, harder to hold, as is apparent when it finally gets fumbled, tumbling to the ground to land, camera-side-down, with a crack that anyone who's seen an iPhone shatter will recognize.]

Dammit

[The woman's voice is high, and harried, curses spat out between heavy breaths. Finally, she manages to pick the iPhone back up, a black-haired woman with bright-red blood smeared across pale skin, the phone in one hand, the other clamped over a shoulder. The green cloth of her jacket is even darker with blood. She looks dizzy and strange, though whether that's from blood loss or something else is questionable.]

There was-- someone said there was a clinic of some kind? That can help?

[She lowers the phone to wipe her sleeve across her face, and a muttered comment is caught by the phone.]

I used to have people for this.

[Her sleeve only made her face grimier, the dirt standing out pretty clearly.]

Um. And if anyone knows what to do with a sword. Like. A sword.

[She shakes her head, trying to focus. Clinic, right, clinic. Gotta send it so someone can let her know where the hell it is. So saving the video.]

Yes, it looks like him.

[So Pierce parks the car and gets out, approaching this individual]

Excuse me, did you speak with this girl earlier?

[He gestures at Lucy, clearly visible in the car]

Perma-action for all

[depolarized]

[Riku's already walking towards him. He doesn't recognize this guy, but how many other people were out here in a car at this time of the night?]

Yeah, that's me. I'm not a doctor but I might be able to help until you get to one.

[And with that, he just walks over to the passenger seat and pulls the door open.] Where's the cut?

[pitch_slap]

Um.


[Well, she is kind of bloody everywhere, she supposes, so she awkwardly nods her head in the direction of her shoulder.]


Here.

[ex_purity762]

[Pierce gets more gauze from the trunk of his car and gets in the driver's side again. He doesn't know what this guy can do, so he places the gauze on the dashboard and waits.

Hopefully, whatever it is, it will benefit Lucy]

[depolarized]

[So Riku bends closer to examine the rip and bleeding. Then there's that very odd calm? Shock?] You cold?

[Don't answer that, since he's already hovering, taking a breath because shit, he's never actually tried this on a human before, but if it works on him and plants, it should work on her. When he speaks, it's the softest murmur, like he's afraid someone will hear.] Heal.

[For a moment, nothing happens, then a soft green glow surrounds them for a moment, fading away. Rukia might feel the cut knit up, the pain easing, but it's fragile and may pull open again. Riku casts the spell once more, just to be safe, but any more than this and they definitely need a doctor.]

That should do it, for now.

[pitch_slap]

[Very much shock. Makes her feel slow and stupid. She'd almost not noticed the cold though, for some reason. Typically she hates the cold...]

[And then there's that weird green glow, and the pain easing just a little, even as it itches and just feels weird, she can tell that it's definitely not bleeding anymore, so that's a good thing, right?]

Ah, thanks... That's uh. Impressive.

[depolarized]

How's it feel? Anything off?[Any side effects he should know about?]

It's not a full fix, but at least you won't lose any more blood until you get to the clinic. [He gets up and nods at the other white-haired guy.] You guys should still head for the clinic. I'll come with you in case something weird happens.

[pitch_slap]

Other than the pain? [That was a weak attempt at a joke, yes. And not a very funny one at that.]

[But it's less than it was, anyway. She doesn't have a very high pain tolerance, she's learning.]
