weekend zero, sunday
jiuqing is sitting on one of the benches in the central node, fiddling with her phone and the customization kit. she wants to make it look cute.
when she hears footsteps, though, she looks up and smiles.]
Oh, hello!
no subject
Hi! Pretty cute, right? [HE LOVES LISA FRANK. Terrible. But over he'll mosey, moving to sit next to her on the bench.]
I've never had my own phone before, either. They look pretty convenient, huh?

week zero, sunday
they share an apartment. jiuqing is home now! she's back from administering medical treatment to damien. with a small sigh, she makes a beeline for the fridge and grabs a bottle of fancy water.]
That was... certainly something else today, wasn't it?
no subject
Kashuu's lounging on one of the couches, though he'll pull himself up so he's draping over the back and can look at her while they talk.]
It was kind of a lot! You okay? Is he okay? Your medical expertise came in handy really fast...

I'm gonna go ask Riff if we can get some extra makeup. S'there anything you really need?
[Just in case they have to go back to the (gasp) bare essentials...
re: memshare, lemme know if u have a vibe pref re: serious or silly!! from sjq i'm good with anything, no tws or anything here!]
no subject
[she has really come to like lip gloss since they got modern cosmetics.
as far as memories go - no prefs! dealer's choice! but i'll start us off because i have my memshare stuff pulled up already. here they are, just minding their own business and trying to deal with the fallout of the HEINOUS MAKEUP THIEF, and now they're stuck in a bubble.
jiuqing sighs.]
This again...
[time to get it over with! she concentrates and presses a hand to the bubble, and there's a soft glow of color before -
well.
jiuqing generally doesn't let other people suffer for too long. but sometimes, they deserve it. and in that case... there are always some exceptions. there are times when you have to use underhanded tricks to get your way, when just talking things out won't work.]

week three, sunday
after an appropriate amount of time has passed, kashuu will find jiuqing in the medical bay, putting away some first aid supplies. there's a proper bandage and gauze around her neck. she's fine, albeit kind of drained and tired; before she's finished with the work, she takes a seat on one of the cots and sighs.
...and then looks up when she hears him.]
Kashuu. [she smiles faintly] Hello.
no subject
[He'll move to sit on one of the opposite cots, looking like he needs a nap, but nowhere near as haggard and upset as some of the people he's run into today. It's clear this whole mess has taken a lot out of everyone.]
S'there anything I can get you? Or do for you, or...
[Anything at all? He knows he can't help where it really matters, though.]

week four, saturday
jiuqing can be found here after the dust settles a little, lost in thought. her vibes are mostly calm, but - kind of sad, too, at the edges of it. yes, they caught atsushi, who had most likely refracted. that's a good thing, isn't it? and yes, he chose combat. the executions so far have guaranteed death; their only combat had resulted in percy escaping with his life.
so there's a chance he'll survive, isn't there?
...she can't really bring herself to feel good about it, though.]
no subject
Anyway. Mood! Kashuu's vibes are frustrated and tired and generally displeased, even though they found Atsushi and at least didn't have to worry about what would happen if they got it wrong. The goods of this hardly outweigh the bads, though. When their paths cross, he dips his head a little.]
...This is really getting exhausting, huh.

Still, he still nods to greet her properly when he sees her.]
Hey. Holding up? ...Also, got a few bandages to spare?
no subject
she can completely understand why he's upset. losing meteion is a huge loss to all of them - but she was so close to kashuu and the others... she can imagine it must really sting.]
I've been keeping busy. [but she's okay. as she talks, she fetches a roll of bandages from the cabinet.] Here... there's plenty.

He's already got a few baskets in hand from Party City when he approaches.]
Heya. Ready to get started?

Yes. Clothes, some supplies from the salon, and - do you think perhaps we ought to send them some medical supplies as well, just in case?

Jiuqing— I heard you were there...
no subject
she also used the pod... but she looks significantly more worse-off now that the black, tarlike substance is gone, because instead of looking like someone just dumped black goo on her, it is now possible to see the full extent of her injuries. she's pretty heavily bandaged all over, and most of the parts of her that are not bandaged are mottled with bruises.
it's fine? ...but she pulls her hand back as if burned when he touches her hand.]
I'm sorry. I'm— I'm really, really sorry...

Whenever Jiuqing comes back, though, he'll just gesture and pat the spot on the couch next to him.]
no subject
she still looks pretty bad! no small wonder, since uh, pods aren't available today. but she's heavily bandaged (like, all over the place, including her head), and she's got mottled bruises all over the place. her hair is pulled up into a messy bun.
exhausted, she takes a seat on the couch and looks down at the ground.]

i don't actually know if kashuu is here. if he's not, then i guess he'll just find her on the couch staring at her phone when he gets back. if he is, she'll wave when she enters.]
no subject
Six hours later he's probably fizzled out of the worst of his anger, and now he just looks tired. He'll make his way over, sitting down nearby.]

jiuqing is not insensitive enough to say that, but she doesn't really know what to say. still, it feels - right, almost, that the swords were the ones to be able to move and take the monster danny had become down.]
