chroma | catchall for damien

[countermeasures]

it's fun to not be canon familiar bc then i get surprised by cr

but it also sucks not to be because i have to wait to make visuals until i learn more through cr and that makes me more likely to forget to do them

Some parts of it are lovely. The capital city is grand, and the imperial palace even grander - but... there are some parts of the city where people have a harder time of things...

It would be nicer if things could be a little more equal for everyone, I think.

[highrisk]

So you're from the palace?

[ the only part of that he cared about i guess ]

[countermeasures]

I spent some time serving as a doctor at the Imperial Academy of Medicine, yes.

[highrisk]

So not royalty yourself or anything.

[ why does he sound a little disappointed. rude. ]

[countermeasures]

No. So sorry to disappoint you.

[highrisk]

Nah. Doctor's good to have around.

[countermeasures]

I'll do my best if my services become necessary, although I think we'd all be happier if they don't.

[highrisk]

... Gotta keep an eye on that Garou kid. I think he's just as likely to injure someone else as he is himself.

[countermeasures]

I am well aware of that.

[she gestures briefly to her cheek, which has a bruise on it that i keep forgetting to mention. we're just going to pretend her hair was hiding it.]

[highrisk]

He kicked me in the leg and I'm pretty sure he tried to choke out Clarte.

[countermeasures]

[she makes a small, displeased noise.]

I knew he was lying to me about how he got injured, but I didn't think I'd find the truth out so quickly. Thank you.

[highrisk]

It's just a guess, but.

[ given everything about garou, it seems like it checks out. he doesn't feel bad about pointing fingers semi-blindly. ]

[countermeasures]

[she sighs heavily]

That young man really is so stubborn...

[highrisk]

He's a brat that needs to be taught a lesson.

[ it's just that damien is extremely wimpy and does not want to teach him that lesson himself. ]

[countermeasures]

He needs to stop hurting himself and others. We don't exactly have a well-stocked clinic here.

[highrisk]

He's welcome to hurt himself, as far as I'm concerned.

[countermeasures]

I'd prefer not to have him bleeding everywhere; the rest of us would have to deal with it, then...

[highrisk]

Just try to make sure he hurts himself at the carnival. Then his blood can hang out with the rest of the blood. Won't even notice it.

[countermeasures]

Oh. You do have a point there.

[highrisk]

See? Problem solved.

[countermeasures]

[she's trying really hard not to laugh


but she's failing a little and a giggle is slipping out]

[highrisk]

[ heh... ]

Guess we're counting on you if things really do go all battle royale.

[countermeasures]

I'll do what I can if it does come to that... I just hope that it doesn't.

[highrisk]

[ he nods and then like

remembers that they're at a speed dating table and that he feels awkward.

[looks at him


looks at the zombies]

Do you suppose we've been here long enough that they might allow us to walk away now?
