Rebel 23 [Action - Foward-dated to tomorrow evening]
[Today has not been an easy day.
It started last night: the steadily rising murmur of voices echoing off the Boundary, so many overlapping and talking at once that the sound has become almost like the buzz of a monstrous insect. She had gone to bed early, entire body aching, hoping that some rest would take care of it.
This morning, it still wasn't gone. The buzz was louder than ever, so loud she could barely hear anything else. And the feedback... the pain was nearly overwhelming. Her head throbbed, lungs burned. But she could do this. She could handle it. Just some tea mixed with the right herbs and the pain will go away.
It took far too long to remember what those herbs were. How many times had she mixed this up before? Why was this so hard now?
Several hours later, as she sat at the front desk of the clinic finishing up some paperwork, the blackouts started.
At first faint, ghostly images of home, familiar faces she knew weren't in Luceti, would flicker in and out around her. And then Luceti began to completely vanish from time to time, leaving glimpses of Orient Town, the lab in Sector Seven, the Kagutsuchi NOL branch, and Ronin-gai to take its place. Memories collided. And the bone-deep terror set in.
It isn't until she starts coughing that she decides to leave the clinic early for the day. Being around other doctors with a blood-flecked handkerchief is just asking for more trouble than she's willing to risk.
Time to go home. Time to just curl up in bed and call it a day and pray that it will be over in the morning.
It isn't until her hand is on the doorknob to her old apartment that Litchi remembers that she doesn't live there anymore. Shaking her head, trying to think clearly, she turns back to head in the right direction.
Disoriented and pained, she starts to make her way back to House 48. But the going is slow; not only is the way blurred from her memory from time to time, but her coughing is just growing worse the longer she walks.
This can't be it. Not here. Not now...!]
[[ooc: The thread with Noel will chronologically come last. ♥ Litchi will not be available after that thread. Beforehand, though, feel free to run into her anywhere along the path from Community Building 2 to House 48.
Also, I gotta leave for work pretty soon, but I will tag when I'm home. ;;]]

[Action]
Flailing around ain't gonna help whoever you are, so just calm the fuck down.
[Action]
Still, she'll try to use a barrier burst to knock Goroh away.]
[Action]
Dammit woman, I really didn't want to have to do this again. [He goes for his gun now.]
[Action]
The struggling is quickly depleting what little air she's managing to get into her damaged lungs. Before Goroh can draw the gun, her movements slow and she slips unconscious.]
[Action]
He takes her in his arms, masks his pained expression one, and carries her to the clinic. With no doctors currently on hand, he takes her to one of the rooms, breaks into where the drugs are kept, and whips up something to keep her sedated. Later, he'll find someone to look after her.
For now... he finds a chair in the room and waits.]
