You have just entered room "aftermath."
ph33r my rod: (( I swear, it always does this during fluff or when it's the three of us... ))
phishschtick: "What... in Ra's name happened?" *still looking away, wincing with each breath*
Omega19x: "... I... I... I'm so... so sorry... I... I didn't... Khons did... and Ra... Ra punished him... ba..banished him..."
phishschtick: "..."
Omega19x: (we got you back, though, Malik-kun)
ph33r my rod: (( Yep. =X ))
Omega19x: "... and... and... they... the gods were... were going to kill me..."
ph33r my rod: *leaning against wall, looking down at floor*
Omega19x: "... but... in..instead... they reversed... the... the magic... and... and... well... that's what happened..."
Omega19x: *cowers, expecting to be hit*
Omega19x: "I... I... didn't... screw with fate... I... I... not much... I'm sorry... yami... please... please forgive me..."
ph33r my rod: (( *tries to remember if Malik was ever healed from anything aside from his cold* ))
Omega19x: (a headache once, but that's probably gone by now anyway)
ph33r my rod: (( Yeah probably. ))
Omega19x: (magically healed injuries lasted as though time passed normally for them)
phishschtick: *glares at Ryou, but instead of hitting him or anything of the like just glowers and looks away again*
phishschtick: (guess the arm's not as bad, then.)
phishschtick: (since that was... jeez, 2 months ago?)
Omega19x: (the ribs are real painful, probably. I guess it all depends on how well the arm healed on its own)
ph33r my rod: (( Longer than that, probably. ))
phishschtick: (yeah. ribs hurt like hell.)
Omega19x: "... I'm... so sorry..."
Omega19x: "... I... I thought I was helping..."
Omega19x: "I... I should have listened to you..."
phishschtick: *scoffs* "Well, it seems you didn't, doesn't it? And now-" *turns to Ryou, and is cut off by a wince* "-fuck..."
ph33r my rod: "..."
Omega19x: "... oh yami..."
Omega19x: *carefully puts his hands on the injury, but pulls them back* "... be careful... try to lie still..."
phishschtick: *wince*
Omega19x: "... they'll heal... you've... just been moving around a lot... we just... need to give them time to heal.."
Omega19x: *glances up at Malik, feeling just guilty as all hell*
ph33r my rod: *reaches down and just places a hand on his shoulder, can't really say anything at the moment*
Omega19x: "... I... I wish the gods would have just left me alone in the first place!"
phishschtick: *obviously can't say too much, cause talking hurts. =X*
phishschtick: "Hn..."
Omega19x: "... at least... I... I would have been... with my parents and sister... again..."
ph33r my rod: "..." *sighs*
phishschtick: "..."
Omega19x: "...but no... I...I lived... and... and got these powers... to help other people... and... and all it did... was... was hurt you guys... and... and anyone else... I cared about..."
Omega19x: "... I... never wanted to hurt you, yami..."
Omega19x: *crying*
Omega19x: *wiiiiiiibbbbbbble*
ph33r my rod: (( ;;!!! ))
phishschtick: (...*dies*)
Omega19x: (biiig wibble)
Omega19x: "..."
phishschtick: (mrfugg, I might have to get off soon. 'Tropical storm' Ophelia is coming, and the power might go out. ¬¬)
Omega19x: (that's a good excuse)
ph33r my rod: (( Quite. x_X ))
Omega19x: (huggles kura)
ph33r my rod: (( *glomple* ))
phishschtick: (I'm serious. the power's flickering already.)
phishschtick: (I'm not going now.)
ph33r my rod: (( Well, just in case the power DOES get knocked out. :P ))
phishschtick: (hee. ;D)
Omega19x: "... if... there's anything I... I can do for you, either of you... please... I'll do it..."
ph33r my rod: (( It got knocked out here the other day 'cause of storms. ;; ))
phishschtick: (*hates storms...*)
ph33r my rod: (( *does too* ))
phishschtick: *sighs* "..."
Omega19x: *doesn't even want to tell his yami the rest of the punishment*
phishschtick: *but he has to...*
Omega19x: *he does?*
phishschtick: *well, he should. >>;*
Omega19x: *from the look on Ryou
Omega19x: 's face, something is clearly wrong, that he hasn't said yet.*
Omega19x: (stabs enter key with ... an icepick.)
ph33r my rod: *is now behind Ryou, hands on both of his shoulders*
phishschtick: *glances at Ryou* "...there's something else, isn't there..?"
Omega19x: *slowly nods his head*
Omega19x: "... yes... yes yami..."
phishschtick: "What is it?"
Omega19x: ".. the... the magic... was... reversed on me too..."
phishschtick: *blinks*
phishschtick: "Oh... fuck no..."
Omega19x: *nods*
Omega19x: "... it's... it's back..."
Omega19x: *pulls up his shirt sleeve, to reveal the bandage from battle city* "... it's all like it was before... for... for me..."
phishschtick: *leans back on the couch, winces, and stares into nothing* "Shit..."
Omega19x: "... I'm fine... right now, really... I... I don't feel a thing! ... at all... really..."
phishschtick: "..."
Omega19x: *glances up at Malik* "I'm... fine... right now, tell him I'm... fine..."
ph33r my rod: "...right now you are. But... point is, it's still there, even if it's just in the beginning stages."
phishschtick: (erg... gotta go. )
Omega19x: "... but... if we can... take care of it before it gets bad... we might be able to do something..."
Omega19x: (aww...)
phishschtick: (yeah. ><)
ph33r my rod: (( Wah. Bye~ *glomple* Hope you don't get hit too badly with the storm. ;; ))
Omega19x: (time to slip Kura some painkillers and force him to sleep)
Omega19x: (yes, please don't get hit too hard)
phishschtick: (seeya. And so do I.)
phishschtick: (DATE RAPE PILLS--- *shot*)
phishschtick: (Later.)
ph33r my rod: (( XDDD ))
ph33r my rod: (( *waves* ))
phishschtick has left the room.
ph33r my rod: (( Or we could say he got pissed and stormed off. Whichever works. :\ ))
Omega19x: (with the ribs, he can't really storm off)
ph33r my rod: (( Point. ))
Omega19x: (we persuaded him to take some painkillers, and he fell asleep on the couch)
ph33r my rod: (( That works. ))
Omega19x: (something tells me, Kura will spend a lot of time on this cruise relaxing)
ph33r my rod: (( Probably. x__x ))
Omega19x: *watches as his yami falls asleep*
Omega19x: "... do... do you think he'll forgive me?"
ph33r my rod: "In time, he will."
Omega19x: *looks down at the floor* "I... never wanted this to happen..."
ph33r my rod: *drapes an arm over his shoulders* "... I know."
Omega19x: "... and now... he's just as hurt... as before..."
ph33r my rod: *sighs* "..."
Omega19x: "... you're... not in pain... are you, Malik?"
ph33r my rod: *shakes head*
Omega19x: "I'm glad..."
Omega19x: *looks at his yami* "...we... should do something really nice for him... for when he wakes up..."
Omega19x: "... maybe then he'll... he'll forgive me..."
ph33r my rod: *shrugs and nods* "... I guess so."
Omega19x: "... we were going to... to make cream puffs anyway... we can make extra..."
ph33r my rod: "Even if he doesn't... just give him time. I think he has to come to terms with this himself first... once the initial shock of it wears off, I guess."
Omega19x: *nods weakly*
Omega19x: *and it had taken Kura so long to get close to Ryou... he hopes it won't take that long again...*
Omega19x: (were we making cream puffs? or are we timelapsing through it?)
ph33r my rod: (( *shrug* Either way is fine, I guess. o.o ))
Omega19x: (your choice)
ph33r my rod: (( I'd personally like to laugh at Malik trying to put the cream in the puffs since he always messes up on it, but we can timelapse, I guess. *shrug* ))
Omega19x: (then lets bake)
ph33r my rod: (( XD Kay~ ))
Omega19x: *goes to kitchen, and sets out ingredients and things for cream puffs*
Omega19x: "he likes sweet things... Why don't we make chocolate filled ones."
ph33r my rod: *nods* "Kay."
Omega19x: "Let's see... 1 cup water, 1/2 cup butter, 1 tsp sugar, 1/4 tsp salt, 1 cup flour, and 4 eggs...
ph33r my rod: (( *had to go and grab a muffin* XD ))
Omega19x: "... I'll start making the pastry part... if you want to start with the creme."
Omega19x: "... one cup softened butter, 1 cup sugar, 4 oz of melted chocolate. 2 tsp vanilla, and six eggs..."
Omega19x: *yes, Ryou knows cream puff recipes by heart*
ph33r my rod: *nods again* "Okay." *grabs an egg and tries to crack it, ends up breaking it completely* "... I really suck at cracking eggs." *wonders how he managed it the first few times*
Omega19x: "blend the butter and sugar first... until it's fluffy..."
ph33r my rod: *nods and starts doing so* "Heh... fluffy."
Omega19x: "... then melt the chocolate, and add it with the vanilla... and THEN add the eggs..."
Omega19x: *smiles*
Omega19x: *is meanwhile putting water, butter, sugar, and salt in a sausepan and letting it boil*
ph33r my rod: *has a really awkward stirring style*
Omega19x: "... it's always good to add the eggs one at a time, and then beat each time... it makes it really fluffy."
Omega19x: "... and puffy!"
Omega19x: *beating, and stirring in flour*
ph33r my rod: *smiles, having finally gotten the butter and sugar mixed... somewhat*
Omega19x: *smiles*
Omega19x: "... now you do the chocolate..."
ph33r my rod: "Kay." *starts adding it in (assuming it's already melted)*
ph33r my rod: *stir stir stir*
Omega19x: (sorry, needed to answer mom's question about missing socks)
ph33r my rod: (( S'okay. ))
Omega19x: *stir stir stir, then removing pan from heat*
Omega19x: *beat beat beat*
ph33r my rod: *adds vanilla, stir stir stir, picks up an egg, looking at it skeptically*
Omega19x: *holds Malik's hand*
Omega19x: "... here... crack it softly on the bowl... like this..."
Omega19x: *moves Malik's hand to crack it, and of course, a perfectly cracked egg*
ph33r my rod: *blinks* "... Oh yeah." *forgot about that method*
Omega19x: *smiles*
ph33r my rod: *somehow manages to get all of the other eggs cracked and added on his own, of course stirring after each one*
Omega19x: *adds eggs to his own mixture*
Omega19x: "... okay... when you finish with that... put it in the fridge to chill... while I put my puffs on a cookie sheet."
ph33r my rod: "Mmkay." *after finishing, puts some plastic wrap over the top of the bowl and sticks it in the fridge*
Omega19x: *puts a sheet with 12 puffs into the 400 degree oven*
Omega19x: "... now they bake!"
Omega19x: "... well, that set... anyway..."
Omega19x: *has another dozen puffs ready to go in when those come out*
ph33r my rod: "So now I guess we just wait. How long do they take again...?" *headscratch*
Omega19x: "... 30 minutes."
ph33r my rod: *nods*
Omega19x: *because, of course, Ryou has about thirty cream puff recipes stored in his head somewhere*
ph33r my rod: (( XD ))
ph33r my rod: (( Magical bakelapse? Or converse while waiting? 8D ))
Omega19x: *magical bakelapse*
Omega19x: "... the first batch will be for us... the second for my yami..."
ph33r my rod: "Kay."
Omega19x: *the first batch is out, second in*
Omega19x: "... we need to let these cool a bit, then we slice them open and fill them!"
Omega19x: "... that's my second favorite part of making cream puffs!"
ph33r my rod: *grins* "What's your favorite part?"
Omega19x: *smiles* "... tasting them!"
Omega19x: *dips his finger in the chocolate, and puts it squarely on Malik's nose*
Omega19x: *giggles*
ph33r my rod: *blink blink* "..." *crosses eyes, trying to see it*
Omega19x: *smiles*
Omega19x: *starts slitting some cooling puffs*
ph33r my rod: *swipes nose with finger, getting the chocolate off*
Omega19x: *hands Malik a small spoon* "want to help fill puffs?"
ph33r my rod: *licks chocolate off finger, taking the spoon* "Kay."
Omega19x: *fill fill fill*
ph33r my rod: *fill fill fill... a little bit clumsily, filling these things was never his strong suit*
Omega19x: "... oh... you know what would be good on these?"
ph33r my rod: "Hm?"
Omega19x: "... chopped almonds!"
Omega19x: *fill fill fill*
Omega19x: *oven dings, and he gets the next batch of puffs out*
ph33r my rod: *thinks about that for a minute* "... Yeah, that does sound pretty good." *wonders if they have any almonds*
ph33r my rod: (( OMG, it's like Almond Crush Pocky, almost. 8DDD ))
Omega19x: *slits more puffs*
Omega19x: (yes, and Malik relates EVERYTHING to pocky)
ph33r my rod: (( *gigglesnort* ))
Omega19x: *fill fill fill*
ph33r my rod: *fill fill fill*
Omega19x: "... did you find any almonds?"
ph33r my rod: *goes to look* *finds a can of almonds after a few minutes* "... Wonder how long they've been in there."
Omega19x: "... I won't ask..."
ph33r my rod: *looks for an expiration date*
ph33r my rod: (( ... Do nuts go bad? O.o; ))
Omega19x: (I was about to ask you)
Omega19x: (gah, brb)
ph33r my rod: (( Kay. ))
Omega19x: (back, with info on nuts)
ph33r my rod: (( le w00t. 8D ))
Omega19x: "... taste them... if they taste too oily and rancid... then they're bad..."
Omega19x: "almonds tend to last a while though...'
ph33r my rod: "... Kay." *pops the can open and tastes one*
ph33r my rod: *contemplates*
Omega19x: "... it doesn't have an expiration date on the can?"
ph33r my rod: "This is easier than looking for the date." *swallows* "... Nah, they're good."
Omega19x: *meanwhile is putting puffs on a plate for his yami, and drizzling it with chocolate sauce*
Omega19x: "chop them up, then."
ph33r my rod: "Kay." *pours a few out onto a cutting board that just happened to be there, chop chop chop*
Omega19x: *puts another dozen puffs on a plate for them, also drizzling it with chocolate sauce*
ph33r my rod: *chop chop--* "OW." *sticks finger in mouth*
ph33r my rod: (( *pets her klutzy puppet* >>; ))
Omega19x: "... sorry..."
ph33r my rod: "...hn?"
Omega19x: "... did you... cut yourself?"
ph33r my rod: *looks at finger, nicked it just a little* "... Yeah."
Omega19x: "... sorry..."
Omega19x: "... I... I wish... I wish I could make it better..."
ph33r my rod: (( KISS IT AND MAKE IT BETTER~ *bricked* ))
Omega19x: (do you want him to?)
ph33r my rod: (( Nah. Was joking. XD; *nudges her charrie to go find a band-aid* ))
ph33r my rod: "... Don't worry about it, okay?" *goes to find a band-aid*
Omega19x: *sighs, and returns to filling the last of the puffs, and setting them on plates*
ph33r my rod: *comes back after a couple of minutes, finger all band-aided up*
Omega19x: *has already sprinkled the chopped almonds on top of the cream puffs*
ph33r my rod: *looks at the puffs* "...Those look pretty good."
Omega19x: *tummy grumbles*
Omega19x: "... I know..."
Omega19x: "... shall we?"
Omega19x: *sets one plate aside*
ph33r my rod: *smiles and nods*
Omega19x: *takes a puff in his hand, and savors it*
ph33r my rod: *picks one up, takes a bite*
Omega19x: "...mmmmm...."
Omega19x: "... so... rich... and yummy..."
ph33r my rod: *nodnod* "They turned out good."
Omega19x: *eats puff*
ph33r my rod: *eats another one*
Omega19x: *same here*
ph33r my rod: "...these things are really addictive, you know that?"
Omega19x: *nods*
Omega19x: "...mm... I could eat these all day..."
Omega19x: *smiles, and bites into a third puff*
ph33r my rod: *grins back, starts on his third*
ph33r my rod: *magical pufflapse?*
Omega19x: *pufflapse!*
Omega19x: *after said pufflapse, there are two puffs left on the plate*
Omega19x: "... I certainly can't eat any more puffs right now..."
ph33r my rod: "...agreed."
Omega19x: "... but they were just... soooooo good..."
ph33r my rod: *grins* "Yeah, they were..."
Omega19x: *smiles*
Omega19x: "it was fun baking them with you..."
ph33r my rod: *nods, still smiling*
Omega19x: "... mmm... so rich and yummy..."
Omega19x: "... and chocolatey..."
ph33r my rod: "So these things come in a lot of different flavors, huh..." *wonders what they'd be like with chocolate AND strawberries*
Omega19x: "... you can put whatever you like in the cream..."
ph33r my rod: *makes mental note!*
Omega19x: "I know some recipes with mushrooms... kind of dinner puffs, I suppose."
ph33r my rod: *blink blink* "... Huh. Weird."
Omega19x: "it's fun to experiment..."
Omega19x: "... banana puffs are great."
ph33r my rod: "...ooh, those do sound good." *ponders* "We'll have to experiment some more, definitely..."
Omega19x: *nods*
ph33r my rod: (( Awwwww... ;; *melts into a little puddle at Ryou's new post* ))
Omega19x: *starts writing a little note to his yami, and takes it, and the cream puffs to the table in front of him*
Omega19x: (almost got that next sentence up in time)
ph33r my rod: (( XD ))
ph33r my rod: "...that's a nice thing for him to wake up to." *small smile*
Omega19x: "I thought so."
ph33r my rod: "... He'll forgive you. When he's ready."
Omega19x: ".. I hope so..."
Omega19x: "... I... I... don't want to... to lose him..."
Omega19x: "... not when... well... I... I might not get to... to be with him... much longer..." *tries NOT to think like that*
ph33r my rod: "..." *gently hugs him* "...don't say that. We'll stop this thing early on this time... it'll be okay."
Omega19x: *nods*
Omega19x: *is hugged*
Omega19x: "... You're right... I'll... I'll be fine..."
Omega19x: *smiles weakly*
ph33r my rod: "... I'll be here for you through this. Just like last time." *smile*
Omega19x: "... my... my body's stronger than it looks... I... I can fight this thing..."
ph33r my rod: *nods*
Omega19x: (sorry, I suddenly got inspired to write a ykyptmzomgcrackygow list)
ph33r my rod: (( XDDD ))
ph33r my rod: (( ... *actually understood that acronym* ))
Omega19x: (rofl)
ph33r my rod: (( *teh think* ))
ph33r my rod: *thinks of something that would make Ryou smile* "Hey... the kittens have started getting up and running around a bit."
Omega19x: *perks up*
ph33r my rod: "Even Zahra was playing around a bit."
Omega19x: "... really?"
Omega19x: "... is she okay?"
ph33r my rod: *nods* "She's been fine."
Omega19x: *smiles* "that's great... I... I was worried about her..."
ph33r my rod: "...you wanna go see them?" *looks at Bakura* "It looks like he'll probably be down here all night... he's pretty out-of-it."
Omega19x: "... how many did he take?"
ph33r my rod: *shrugs* "Dunno... looked like three or four."
Omega19x: *looks at the bottle* "... yeah... he'll be here all night... and into tomorrow..."
Omega19x: "... take ONE... with water..."
ph33r my rod: *facepalm*
Omega19x: *walks upstairs to see the kittens playing around*
Omega19x: *and finds them all asleep!*
ph33r my rod: *blinks* "Huh. They were up and running earlier today... guess they tired themselves out."
Omega19x: "... I guess they must have... they're all asleep..."
Omega19x: *curled up, some using each other as pillows, so cuuuute*
Omega19x: (sleep, which is what I shall go do soon.)
ph33r my rod: (( Ah... sleep is good. ))
Omega19x: (oh, and btw, I'm going to the balloon fest tomorrow night, so I'll be late to the rp. if people want to start it, we're flying to Florida. I'll just go along with whatever.)
ph33r my rod: (( Kay. ))
Omega19x: (I should be back by the time we actually get there, if flying to Hawaii is any indication)
Omega19x: (the actual cruise isn't until Mon. anyway)
ph33r my rod: (( Mmkay. So tomorrow's just a lot of flying. ))
Omega19x: (that, and maybe a tour of the everglades swamp.., or some other florida attraction)
ph33r my rod: (( Okies. ))
Omega19x: (of course, we all know Ryou doesn't really like flying)
ph33r my rod: (( Of course. x___x ))
Omega19x: (I'll probably be back by 9 or so, just dm in my absense.)
ph33r my rod: (( Will do. :3 ))
Omega19x: (nightynighty)
ph33r my rod: (( Night~ *wavewave* ))
Omega19x has left the room.
