Minor injuries like a broken rib that should be allowed to heal properly, else risk that bone becoming weak and/or healing incorrectly? Or could prove potentially fatal for both yourself and the people you care about protecting due to that 'minor injury?'
[Poor Yuri. He never knew that he'd get someone who mother hens almost as bad as Flynn does.]
How terrible that he cared enough for your well-being that he'd confine you to a hospital bed, considering you sneaked out and did a virtual battle in ViViD without his knowledge. At least, from the sounds of it.
yeah, it actually is pretty damn terrible when he's overreacting. i can rest at home without being stuck here with nothing to do.
even one of the nurses said it was overkill since none of my organs were in trouble.
[what's that? the sound of yuri regretting asking mikleo for help? and what's the other part? yuri casually ignoring the fact that he's being lectured by a near stranger? yeah, both of those things are happening. this is overboard, mikleo.
though he kind of has to wonder what kind of friend sorey must be if mikleo could glean that much so easily from what he knew. there's a lot of accurate extrapolation going on based on a brief meeting and a couple of texts.]
Yeah, but you're more likely to sneak out at home than you are in a hospital.
I'm glad to hear that none of your organs are in danger. I was worried that you might have stressed the bone too much during the battle with those virtual hellions.
[There's a short pause. Mikleo isn't totally heartless to Yuri's plight. He's putting his trust in the fact that Sorey knows him, and thus might not be a bad person, regardless of certain questionable decisions that were made on Yuri's part.]
I'm not going to help you bust out of hospital like it's some kind of high security prison, but I don't mind dropping off some things for you. I could get you some books or something. If you're extremely desperate, I can escort you around outside for a little while so that you don't get into trouble with your friend again, if you promise not to try ditching me or do anything strenuous.
[Like Sorey, Mikleo might be a little too nice sometimes.]
[yeah, mikleo's... not really wrong about that part, honestly. yuri can't even try to defend it, so he won't. still, this is totally overkill!]
nah, that was nothin. it was probably the other fight that did me in, but it's still not that bad. they said i'd be good as new in a week or so.
[gotta love cerealia's technology, right.]
you're almost as much of a naggy mother hen as he is about this. but if it'll get me out of the room for a bit, i'm not gonna say no. you know how stuffy and stifling a hospital room is when you've got robot guards on all sides?
That's not so bad. You could've been holed up for a month.
[There are few things that Mikleo will say are good things about Cerealia. This is one of those.]
I'll take that as a compliment. Also, no, I wouldn't know, but I can imagine how it'd be.
[He's only experienced waiting in a stuffy and stifling room for Sorey to wake up after being unconscious for three days straight. Not that Yuri needs to know this little tidbit.
Mikleo will experience a slight delay, though. This delay is in the form of putting some baked goods in a Tupperware container for Yuri. He...might have been having some fun learning how to use the oven earlier today. There are so many right now, please take them. When he gets to the hospital, the nice receptionist tells the water seraph exactly where Yuri's room is and makes his way up there.
There's going to be a polite knock at the door and probably what looks like a floating plastic container.]
[it's probably to no avail that he says that, especially considering he doesn't get much in the way of a response. he spends the remaining amount of time on the bed, arm resting over his forehead as he stares at the ceiling in annoyance. there's a tv in the room that's playing some variety show in the background, but yuri's not really paying attention to it—it's more just idle noise so the silence doesn't drive him insane.
the knock at the door is nothing short of a good thing. until... well, until he sees nothing but a floating container.]
[he's quick to answer the call when it comes in, looking at mikleo—and then back to the floating container.]
I'm gonna take a wild guess this is what you were talking about last time. [it works fine through the cerevice, which is undoubtedly better than nothing. but still, it's weird as hell.]
Yeah. Repede would still be able to perceive me since he's an animal, but this is what seraphim have had to deal with for a couple thousand years, now. I can switch to the audio function if you think it'll be easier for a short stroll.
[He walks over and places the container on the surface closest to Yuri.]
Some snacks for you. I made a little too much earlier today.
[And everyone in his party just going to have to deal with him sharing those snacks with other people.]
[it seems like kind of a pain for mikleo to have to deal with; he doesn't know the other seraphim (well, except dezel but that's... not quite the same), but he imagines it's a hassle... especially here, where things are just damn weird.
but there's not much he can do about it... aside from deal with it in the only way he knows how: rolling with the punches. it looks like they're going to just have to do things this way.
not before checking out the container of snacks. he's peering over at it.]
Snacks, huh. What is it? [he says this, but he's already reaching over to grab the container and open it up anyway.]
[He'd mention that Sorey can act as an intermediary, but he decides to just let his friend talk to Yuri about that or let it come up naturally in conversation. Besides, that doesn't really matter at the moment.]
Mostly baked goods, like butter cookies. My specialty is with frozen or cold things, but I didn't think they'd be very good for a hospital stay.
[Travel doesn't matter when you're a walking refrigerator/freezer.]
Out of curiosity, who's the friend forcing you to stay here?
[but that's not stopping yuri from opening the container fully and taking out a cookie. he looks it over before popping it in his mouth—not bad. probably not the best cookie he's ever had, but hardly the worst.
then again, sweets are yuri's weak spot. he can always give mikleo pointers later if he wants them. though that thought gets pushed to the side by mikleo's question.]
Boy scout and pain-in-my-ass extraordinare, Flynn Scifo. [he gives a bit of a questioning look, silently asking if he knows the name.]
[Mikleo will totally take those pointers as a fellow lover of sweets. His expression looks part amused, part exasperated at the name. So many things make sense, now. He's going to have to make sure he drops something off for Flynn, too, just for dealing with Yuri as a best friend.]
Oh. The guy who almost killed Sorey.
[Yep, that's how he knows Flynn. What a wonderful impression of him.]
...I might have an idea to fix that, but I'd rather not have to resort to it unless absolutely necessary. It seems a little cruel to let him live a lie about his cooking.
[Seriously, nobody deserves to be subjected to Leon Magnus' blunt and harsh criticisms. Sometimes, though, there's a need for drastic measures.]
I'm not gonna stop you if you want to try. It's not gonna be an easy sell, though.
[seriously. sometimes flynn is dense, and worse is the sad and pathetic puppy dog expression. but if mikleo thinks he can do it? yuri's not gonna stop him from trying.
in any case...]
I've been ready since the second I got checked into this damn place.
[Mikleo decides against telling Yuri that he's honestly more worried about Flynn being completely heartbroken by the end of it.]
Then let's get going before Flynn decides to show up for a visit. Trying to leave or come back when it looks like there's nobody here with you is going to be awkward to explain to him.

he went way overboard this time.

Might as well test to see if the CereVice can help him out.
Yuri's getting a video call from Mikleo! Though, Mikleo has muted Yuri's end of it so that he doesn't get an echo effect.]
Can you see me now?

Guess I can't fault you there. I'm guessing Sorey learned his lesson not to trust Flynn in the kitchen, either. [yuri sighs.
he's sorry about that whole situation, honestly.] He means well, but... he doesn't always hit the mark.
no subject
I did have a brief conversation with Flynn about that. Nobody's brought up to him that he needs...um...improvement?
[Though, looking back on Flynn's reaction when he first spoke to him, perhaps he can see the reason why.]
no subject
[of course... there's the fact that yuri is hardly ever direct about it. turning your best friend into a kicked puppy is a tough life.]
