[Written/Action] 018

[...Someone is slowly regaining consciousness and finding himself someplace he hasn't seen for god knows how long. Alexei has been tossed back into Luceti, left sitting up against a building near the barracks, where he had been previously taken. It's probably a community building. Once he could feel his arm, he presses his hand against his forehead. He had this horrible headache, and it was making it difficult for him to focus or even move. Any sort of movement just felt disorientating.

So rather then battle against it, he'll just sit there for a moment and hope it'll soon pass. He may as well just look through the journal and say-...he frowsn, deciding to write instead.]

Can someone tell me what today's date is?

[No not really. Ghosts don't exactly need to eat, after all.] Does it taste bad. I only recall having it once as a little kid, but it's really popular where I come from. People are always buying packs in the bulk of them in the supermarket.

...[He waves his hand. It's so-so. He's concluded the purpose of this type of food is to be made quick and eaten with least amount of time waiting for it too be finish. Quality is not a factor. He leans back in his seat when he has finished, looking to Mayoi with a nod. Thank you.]

[She takes his nod with a small smile. She'll take it as a "good job" or something like that.] You should go rest now and I'll clean up. [she picks up the bowl and something pops into her head] Now that I think about it, nobody knows you're here, right? Should I go tell them?

[Alexei stands, considering her question.] ... [He shakes his head, strongly against it.]

But don't you want people knowing where you are? I wouldn't want them to plaster your face all over milk cartons in panic wondering whe--

......or is that you're embarrassed about people knowing I'm helping you?

[He frowns. Thankfully he still had some spare paper he had tore out of the journal with him. So he'll just write. "It's neither." Well maybe a little of the second, but not the point here. "I've been gone for almost a month. Why would it matter to anyone now?"]

Maybe because you were gone for a month they should care more than usual! Plus you lost your voice too -- how can this not be important?!

["I would like some peace and quiet." The font was a bit more bold since he was pressing more firmly on the pen. "They can wait."]

[Mayoi is still very much against the idea of Alexei still being 'missing' for the general public, but she begrudgingly decides to accept it. He'll be out of here tomorrow anyway.]

Fine, I won't tell anyone. I'm only doing this because you are really worn out, but I'll probably tell everyone tomorrow then.

[He pitches the bridge of his nose. Does she not understand, no means no? He sighs, and just...starts walking back to the room to get some sleep]

[She understands but she's worried. Plus if someone comes to her house and sees him inside they're going to be asking questions! Well at least the possibility of them hearing him through the journal is impossible.]

...Have a good rest Alexei.
