[Eleventh Stanza]: [Accidental Audio]

[eclipsedonmyoji]

You're up.

Mhm...

Feeling any better?

Slightly.

... I hate to say it, Daisuke, but a migraine lasting that long is usually the sign of a serious medical condition.

[noncommittal grunt, followed by some shuffling and plates clinking together]

[sigh] Why do you insist on being so stubborn?

I'm not being stubborn.

You're keeping everything bottled up, Dai! Look at you! You're miserable! I think you're actually skinnier than when you got here!

Ana, shut up!

[several things shatter at once (namely two plates, a glass and a light bulb) causing Ana to squeak in surprise]

DAI?!

... not what I meant to do...

[thwump]

I don't have a damn clue...

[Daisuke groans finally, shifting and rolling on to his side, curling up with his eyes still closed]

mng...

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

[Freezes and then moves right back beside Daisuke.] Daisuke?!

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

Oh thank Yggdrasil...

Keiji... ? [groans, putting both hands to his head]

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

I'm here. Do you need anything?

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

I... I don't think I'm okay...

You might want to make that call, Keiji...

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

Right! Don't move Daisuke. I'm going to call the hospital. [And now he's hurrying to do the phone to do just that.]

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

mnn...

Does your head still hurt...? Or is something else?

All over...

[sigh]I hate to say it, but I think staying in your bed all this time made it worse...

Nng...

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

[Returns a minute later.] They're sending over an ambulance now.

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

Okay...

Keiji... his heart beat is still erratic...

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

Right. Well, uh...we....we just gotta keep him calm. Make sure he's breathing evenly. And, uh...

[This was NOT his department. He knew about bodies, but that was on the OUTSIDE. He didn't know ANYTHING about what should work how or how to make it work beyond just basic first aid!]

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

[Ana's not in any better of a position, seeing as the most she can tell is that his heart rate is funny and his breathing isn't exactly normal. But she is noticeably calmer than Keiji.]

Mmmnnn...

Shh... it'll be okay, Dai...

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

[It was a curse, sadly, to usually manage to control things so well. When they weren't controlled, he kind didn't know what to do. And it just made him panic.

But he was trying to keep calm.]

Just keep breathing. Deep breathes.

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

Mmm... I'm sorry... I messed up...

Dai...

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

You didn't do anything, Daisuke. Just relax.

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

Nn... [Dai goes quiet, already shallow breathing going more so]

... Dai... Dai, stay awake...

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

[Grabs his shoulders, shaking him.] Daisuke, don't go to sleep!

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

[Dai opens his eyes for a second, only to slump against Keiji and close them again]

Tired...

I know you're tired, Dai, but you gotta stay awake so we know you're okay...

[Dart had been out and about, not really knowing how to deal with Hardy's detachment and refusal to even eat, let alone come out of his room. But as soon as he heard the audio broadcast he ran, flat out until he reached Keiji and Hardy's apartment. Finding Hardy slumped on Keiji, he knelt down and felt Hardy's forehead.]

Shit...he's burning up...you called for help, right?

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

There's an ambulance on it's way.

[He's still shaking Daisuke, trying to get him to wake up.]

You're from his world. Is this normal?!

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

I heard him say the other night that it's happened to him before...

[turp-ven.livejournal.com]

[Pulls Keiji away from Hardy.]

Its not normal, and it isn't good. But shaking him is not helping. Get some ice in a bag and a towel. You need to calm down...okay?

Hardy, talk to me...if you have a concussion you need to stay awake, alright?

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

[An order. He's not the best with orders...

But this is for Daisuke. He hurries to get the ice and towel, returning shortly.] So you know what it is?

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

[Daisuke groans again, turning and burying his face in Dart's chest]

Mm... mhmn...

Where the hell is that damn ambulance... they always take so long...

[turp-ven.livejournal.com]

[Runs his fingers through Hardy's hair.]

Not exactly...but I have an idea. Hardy Blackbourne, 'Mm mhmm' is not talking. I need words Venustus...

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

[Keiji presses the ice against Daisuke's forehead. Then Nya-chan's ears perk up.] I hear something!

Is it a siren?

...yes! I think so!

[He looked at Dart.] We should get ready to move him.

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

mng... d-don't... use that name... I hate it...

[slightly relieved laughter from Ana]

It's about time.

Why're there... sirens... ? I don't wanna go...

[turp-ven.livejournal.com]

[Smiles]

It got your attention though, didn't it? And you do need to go. You need some fluids in your system. And the doctors will know what else to do to help you.

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

I'm going to go meet them and bring them up.

[He could hear the sirens now and was heading for the door. He had something he could do. He could focus on that and remain calm.]

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

[Daisuke whines childishly] Please... ? Hate hospitals...

Dai. We love you, but shut up. You know how terrible you feel right now and you're only going to get worse if you don't get help.

[Daisuke whines again, louder this time as he clings weakly to Dart]

[turp-ven.livejournal.com]

[Dart carefully picked him up. Then says sternly,]

Don't argue with me right now. You're going to the hospital, and you'll thank us later.

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

Hospitals are good though! They saved Sagatchi! And Doumeki!

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

Mnn...

I'll take that as 'too tired to argue'. Stay awake, though.

I will...

[turp-ven.livejournal.com]

[Carries Hardy down the stairs to the paramedics.]

You'll be out in a few days if you do what the docs say.

[He kisses Hardy's forehead before handing him off to the paramedics.]

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

[Is waiting by the paramedics, explaining what happens briefly what had happened.

His oddest explanation for an ambulance, but it was good to have the people who were taking care of Daisuke know.

He looks over at Dart.] Ride with them. You're going to know more about Daisuke's health history than me.

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

I'll stay here. Some one should probably call in to work for him.

[turp-ven.livejournal.com]

Alright...um...

[Terri comes out of the apartment rubbing its eyes.]

So noisy...

Terri...stay with Ana, okay?

Yeah, kay...goin' back to bed...

[sighs]

[lotsoftitles.livejournal.com]

Huh? But I'm his boss.

He has the second job, Sagatchi.

Oh! Right, right. Ana, Terri, I'll trust you to watch the apartment. I'm taking Nya-chan with me. [Because there was a chance something bad might happen and he didn't want it to happen with them unprepared.]

[eclipsedonmyoji.livejournal.com]

Keep us updated. Come on, kid.

[Ana picks Terri up and heads back to the apartment as Daisuke is loaded in the ambulance]
