[toujoursfluer]

[She wakes up in the middle of the forest. It is hard to tell what time of day it is but things seem to be more alive. Everything is moving. It is then she realizes she is somewhat...changed.]



[Well then, this is interesting. She tries to speak, but only comes out with a faint meow. How frustrating. Finding her journal she flips it open with a swipe of a paw, and sees that the writing function has been disabled. Of course it has. But you may, if you are fortunate, see a black cat staring down at you until she flips the book back shut, picks it up in her mouth and trots villagward.]

[Feel free to meet her any where, including journal pings. Replies will come from toujourschatte]

[Robin shakes her head. After a moment she ferries up some paper and ink for herself and sits on the end of Vivi's bed as she carefully writes]

It was nothing. Are you ill?

[Vivi leans over to switch on the small lamp near her bedside, and winces at the sudden flare of too-bright light. She squints at Robin's note, willing her eyes to focus, but her vision remains largely blurry. Still, she can manage to decipher it.]

[Though she finds such a simple question very difficult to answer.]

I...yes. On the draft, I--Mr Bushido-- [This would be difficult to talk about even if she were healthy, but right now it's nearly impossible for her to get her thoughts out in good order. She pauses, squeezing her eyes shut to try and formulate a response, lying back on the pillow as she realizes she's feeling woozy. She lays a weary hand across her eyes to shield them from even the faint light of the lamp through her eyelids.] ...do you know what happened? [Perhaps better to start there.]

[action]

[toujourschatte]

[It's all she's heard about today. From nearly everyone it seems. Zoro cannot simply die quietly. She sighs a little.]

Yes. I have heard of his [she pauses] of the situation. And you were hurt?

[action]

[alabastajewel]

...yes. [Hurt. That's one way of putting it. Another would be 'Zoro turned zombie and took a bite out of me before Sanji put him down.']

There was...a virus. I was infected. [She pauses, trying to condense this. Speaking of it is draining, in more ways that one.] It...changed people. They finally developed a cure, but... [She makes a vague flapping gesture with one hand. She'd received the cure, but it couldn't undo all the damage the virus had wrought in her body. That would take time.]

[action]

[toujourschatte]

[She nods. The details are not so important now. At least not for Vivi to say them. She will piece out the rest another time. However, just to make sure...]

But you are recovering?

[action]

[alabastajewel]

[A weak nod.] I'll need time. And lots of rest, but...I should be all right.

[Physically, at least. Mentally and emotionally, there's still a lot of things to work through. But one good thing about feeling so exhausted right now is she can't even dwell on the thoughts that might otherwise be haunting her.]

[action]

[toujourschatte]

[She nods again. Hesitates a moment. She is unsure if she can be of any help. However...]

If there is anything I can do, please let me know.
