new day new problems

Who: Ruca Milda and you
Where: District 1 and later building #1
When: starting in the afternoon
Summary: Ruca is feeling cold. Somebody help him
Warnings: nothing

Ruca could be seen returning to the apartment building with a few books in his hands. He was glancing at them every once in a while with a smile on his face. The fact that he could read as much as he wanted was definitely a good thing about this entire situation. One of a very few good things actually. Yet it wasn't enough to make Ruca forget that shouldn’t even be here nor it would help the boy to cure his homesickness.

When Ruca was close to the building out of the sudden he felt strangely cold. At first he tried to ignore the feeling, but before he noticed he was shivering almost as if he was going to freeze any moment now. He looked around trying to find a cause of this sudden change in temperature but it seemed as if he was the only one feeling the cold.

“What's... going on?” he muttered under his breath to no one in particular. Still shivering he quickened his pace and headed back into the building to find something to warm himself up with. Did he get sick? But wasn't that too sudden?



Later on the boy could be found in the common area on the first floor (having no strength to get to his own room) sitting on a couch in the far corner of the room and covered with seemingly every blanket he managed to find. Ruca stared at his palm for a moment then a crimson flame flickered on it suddenly. The flame vanished quickly as Ruca let a disappointed sigh.

It seemed that even his own fire magic wasn't able to help him.

Emil smiled back, but the way the boy had shivered worried him. He handed over the book, trying not to many any rough or sudden movements as he did just in case, and leaned in a little closer to get a good look at Ruca. He didn't look all that well, that was for sure; unfortunately Emil didn't know much more that was helpful. He couldn't tell what made this different from any other illness.

"If you're sick, shouldn't you go see somebody? Like a doctor, or a healer." Too bad he was neither - although maybe Marta could do something? He wasn't sure whether healing spells covered normal illnesses. "I have a friend who can use healing magic, but it might be better to see a doctor instead." Thinking of his own situation, he added under his breath, "Maybe I should go, too."

Sorry this is late!

"Um--" Emil hadn't meant for that to be heard, but maybe that was a sign the heat really was getting to him. Maybe he really was sick. Ruca was right, he'd never heard of such a thing, but then there was a lot he didn't know about illnesses. It wasn't as if Emil had ever gotten sick before. If there was a chance going to the doctor could help, it might very well be worth a visit himself.

"Yeah." He could have said otherwise and gone on with things quietly, but given that neither of them were in the best state right now Emil felt there wasn't much to lose by being truthful right now. "I feel strange. I was fine earlier today, but then I suddenly started getting hotter and hotter...I still feel that way right now. Maybe I'm sick, too."

School? That's what's got me!

"Hot and cold..." That had to mean something, he knew it. The question was, what? The fact that they were experiencing similar conditions, even in opposite directions, meant that they might have the same cause. But he couldn't imagine what that cause could be, except--

"Magic?" he suggested after a few seconds' thought. He wasn't at all sure he was right, the exhaustion was so hard to keep thinking clearly, but along with some kind of illness it seemed like a possible reason things like this could happen all of a sudden. Like the effects of the Centurion's cores, changing the environment around them. "Maybe something's happened."
