[This is a lie. He just isn't handling his most recent Memory very well. Plus the all the new information on how bad the police force really is...]

[It's hit him hard. This is his way of trying to cover and cope at the same time.]

as u wish

[He'll shuffle his way to the door. And. Well. There will be a blanket pulled over his head, and his sulking clothes on. But he's clearly not sick. Oops.]

AKSHUN

[synonymouswithdookie]

Comin' through!

[watch out FOOL Ray's carrying like four bags of groceries. yeah he bought you food deal with it.

He pauses halfway to the kitchen and gives Yuji a LOOK. Yeah he's not buying that sick shit anymore.]

"Under the weather", huh?

AKSHUN

[sassymaru]

[He steps to one side, this time minus the usual commentary. But there's a vague little smile -- all the same. He's touched there's fifty bags of food in your hands.]

[A shrug.]

More or less.

AKSHUN

[synonymouswithdookie]

[Yeah don't even help him carry it Yuji that's fine he'll just cart this shit to the kitchen ALL BY HIMSELF. Which he does.]

You gonna tell me what's up, or do I have to sit here and guess?

AKSHUN

[sassymaru]

[sdhjkfsd oops you see how far away his brain is right now.]

[BELATEDLY, he goes to help out. When he does speak up, his accent has thickened considerably, care of stress.]

You already know. It just... seem to be getting worse.

AKSHUN

[synonymouswithdookie]

That's still bothering you, huh.

[O gee thanks for the help, Ray starts tossing junk in the fridge]

You could have called me, you know. You don't have to deal with shit by yourself.

AKSHUN

[sassymaru]

Mn. It will not go away.

[He'll just put stuff on the counter, does he even have cupboard space for this shit.]

You have your own problems. It felt wrong. Burdening.

AKSHUN

[synonymouswithdookie]

[Ray will MAKE cupboard space, he's magic that way.]

Sure, I have my own problems to work out, but I want to help you with yours, too. And don't think for a second that you're burdening me, because you're not. Understand?

AKSHUN

[sassymaru]

[In that case, he'll hover awkwardly and try to help.]

I feel same.

I want to help. I... have to sort my head out too. I don't know where to start.

With anything.

[sugoku]

It seems there's always something wrong when we talk.

Not that there isn't always something happening to begin with.

[von_uberwolf]

Do some sick person stuff. Lie down. Get some soup.

[sassymaru]

[sassymaru]

ill endeavor to be in far better health the next time we meet

[von_uberwolf]

[eyeroll]

I'm sure we'll muddle through any fashion emergencies somehow.

[sassymaru]

well one cant be sure

so

theres my warning

AKSHUN

[synonymouswithdookie]

[Look Yuji he even bought you your fruity lady booze]

I don't either, but it's okay. Even if we have to sit here and brainstorm this shit all night, we'll figure it out.

AKSHUN

[sassymaru]

[Oh bless your fine ass, he's going to take one right the hell now, actually.]

All night, mm?

Good thing I have sick days. Probably going to need them.

AKSHUN

[synonymouswithdookie]

All night. I don't work tomorrow, so literally, we have all night.
