not_meatbuns: (Defeated)
Cut for action )

[Written | 20% Locked away from Taokaka, Noel Vermillion, and Relius Clover]

[It isn't until much later in the evening, after she's been nursed back into the world of the living, that Litchi writes. When she does, her handwriting is shaky but still legible.]

One thing I have noticed in my time here is that, for all our differences, our worlds are all very much the same. Even those things which we seem to think make our own worlds unique seem to exist somewhere with someone else.

I have a question for everyone. And any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

In my world, we have a place we call the Boundary. It's [Pause. A wider space than necessary appears here.] a lot of things, really. But to keep it simple, it's a source of immense power and knowledge. A colleague of mine theorized that it contains the ultimate truth. In any case, normal humans cannot be exposed to its power for long. It breaks down the body and the mind until there isn't anything left.

I've been trying to find a cure for that erosion for many years. Convential, traditional, and even magical medicines can slow it, but can't stop it altogether, let alone reverse it. They treat the symptoms, not the disease.

If anyone has anything like this in their world, or has found a way to stop effects like this, please let me know. I'd forever be in your debt.

[[ooc: Yui will be finding Litchi, then any doctor is free to jump in to help. ♥]]
not_meatbuns: (guarded)
[Litchi is starting off her day with total and utter confusion. Instead of waking up in the comfortable, familiar dark of the apartment she shares with Thirteen, the sun is already coming up and illuminating a strange room instead. It's not their home back on Strangereal, so she can rule out the Malnosso sending them back - not to mention she wouldn't remember any Malnosso if that were the case. A slight panic starts to set in, not just at the unfamiliar surroundings, but also at the fact that - dun dun dunnnn - she's late for a shift at the clinic.

Although the unfamiliar room has her attention more, and that's the main reason why she's nudging her husband awake. David's always been the more level-headed between them. Maybe he can figure out where they are and what they're doing here.

Later on in the day, her bearings regained and feeling slightly miffed, Litchi will address the journals.]


[Voice]

My goodness. Another day completely blanked out. I really do hope the Malnosso stop interrupting our memories like this. Once is too many, but this many times...

[Well, she's getting off-track. She clears her throat, only slightly sheepish.]

Is everyone alright? Any injuries? Slight confusion seems to be a trend today, so I suppose we can ignore that as a symptom.

If anyone needs any help at all, please let me know. Even if you just need a hand re-orienting yourself.

[[ooc: AU info this-a-way! Litchi's been a military doctor for a few years, so please forgive her for being a little more bold and a little harsher than her usual self. ♥]]
not_meatbuns: (wtf is that outside the window)
TL;DR action )

My goodness, this is all so familiar... Hello? Is anyone-- [Luceti Valley. Mu. Raining trees. She stammers to a stop for a moment before trying again.] --Is anyone there? I think...

[This is the headache of the century. Litchi stops again, leaning her forehead against the cool side of the tub until the Boundary quiets down again. That doesn't seem right. It wasn't this loud before, was it? ...Wait, it was, wasn't it...]

I think I may need some help. This is... Luceti, yes...? I'm afraid I woke up in the forest and I... seem to be missing a few things. [Her usual clothes. Memories. Mantenbou. A ring. Although the last one she has an itching suspicion was both very important and has a very low chance of being here.

And there's one other thing...]


Also, could anyone tell me if Tsubaki Yayoi or Kazuma Kval are still here? It would be a tremendous help.
not_meatbuns: (I'm sorry... [+Arakune])
[Litchi awoke this morning to a slightly emptier house.

With some mounting sense of panic, she spent some time searching for the missing family member. It isn't until she wanders back into his room, beginning to go numb, that she notices the letters. The numb feeling just settles in deeper and deeper the more she reads, even though she's started to tremble all over. The gift he left her does nothing to ease the shaking, but that doesn't stop her from silently accepting it.

While the numbness lasts, she delivers the rest of the letters. Slips them under doors before the sun rises, hoping she doesn't need to talk to anyone. She's not even sure her voice will work if it comes down to it.

Just before retreating to her room and closing herself in, she writes in the journal, her handwriting small and increasingly shaky as the numb sensation begins to wear off. And then the journal is shut and stashed away, for the first time in at least a year. She doesn't think she has the strength to answer anyone just yet.]


[Written]

To any that knew him [...] Major David Jordan ("Yellow 13") has been sent home.

I'm sorry.
not_meatbuns: (defeated)
[It was bound to happen sooner or later. Between pushing herself with extra hours at the clinic and running around in the snow more than she should have, Litchi's awesome immune system has finally been conquered. It's little more than a common cold, but she knows she can't push it anymore and needs to rest. Much as she hates to admit defeat like this.

House 48 gets the honor of a puffy-eyed and sniffly Litchi making far more noise than she would like this morning (re: coughing from time to time), trying to make some tea. After that, she's going to bundle up in her room, more than likely forced there by housemates.

Towards mid-morning, feeling even worse about writing this than she feels sick, she drops a note in the journals.]


[Written | Filtered to Medical Staff/Volunteers/Students]

I am so terribly sorry for my timing on this, but I seem to have caught a cold. It shouldn't take more than a day or two to recover, but I didn't want to put any patients at risk by coming in to work while I'm contagious.

I'm sure the clinic will be just fine in the meantime, but if anyone needs me for anything, please don't hesitate to ask.

Please try to stay warm, everyone.
not_meatbuns: (Victory po~zu)
[Today, while the sun is still up, anybody passing by House 48 may be treated to a sparring match complete with Filial magic tricks. The lawn is the battleground, and surprisingly isn't getting too torn up between Litchi and Thirteen practicing both magic and fighting moves. It's probably a little overdue, since Litchi definitely feels like she's been getting rusty, but the fight is more than a little flashy to make up for it. Fire, water, and wind magic makes things interesting, after all.

Once they're done tearing up the lawn, Litchi will be dragging Thirteen off for a trip around town. Feel free to run into them anywhere around town!

Later on in the night, Litchi settles down to try to settle some business that she hasn't been wanting to face for days.]


[Written | Unfiltered]

To all our clinic staff, volunteers, and anyone interested in becoming either one:

I think it may be time we all came together for a meeting to discuss a few things about the clinics. There are several [pause] recent developments that may need our combined attention.

I would especially love to hear from our Battle Dome volunteers and staff, if possible.

Thank you all so much,

Litchi Faye-Ling
not_meatbuns: (Let's get down to business)
[Now that she's recovered from the Mu incident, Litchi is trying to straighten up loose ends. There's been a lot on her mind ever since it all happened, and there are definitely some things that need addressing. After a walk around the village, and a trip to the item shop to find some new glasses -- the left lens on hers was badly cracked in the attack -- she'll get down to addressing some notes over the journals. On the way to and from the item shop, though, she's pretty much blind as a bat and may be walking into people. Sorry, Luceti!

Both messages are written in tiny but very neat handwriting. One of the few doctors with legible handwriting.]

[[ooc: And if anyone wants to run into Litchi while she's glasses-searching, the temporary pair and only one she could find in the right prescription looks like this. She'll only be wearing them in the store while she looks, though, because she is too vain to wear them in public. :D;;

Edit: For better reference! Thank you to [personal profile] dreamfandom for this XD]]
not_meatbuns: (♪~ [so drunk.])
[Luceti. Your doom has arrived.

Litchi Faye-Ling awoke this morning with a tremendous desire to stuff people into costumes. And the ideas are abundant. She's not even drunk, but she still has her Radar going off whenever she sees just about anyone.

This a terror that should never be unleashed upon the innocent. This! Is! Cosplay!

Just about anywhere, just about all hours of the day and night, she is searching. There are costumes to be dealt out, and she is just the woman to do it.

Now would be a good time to start running.]




[[ooc: Today's theme is Pokemon! Because the mun could not think of anything else that had over 300 readily-available cosplays possible. Also, as always permission is nice with this. XD;]]
not_meatbuns: (Momma Litchi <3)
My word, it certainly has been an interesting month, hasn't it? And now we're due for a new set of New Feathers to arrive. Time really does fly...

To anyone who has just arrived here, welcome to Luceti. If any of you need any help settling in at all, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd be more than happy to lend a hand wherever possible. Even if you just need a bite to eat, believe me, there's more than enough to spare.

Speaking of that, though... if any of you are ever in need of any medical assistance, please don't hesitate to visit one of the clinics. We have one in the Battle Dome and one in the center of town. [And here her tone takes on a hint of teasing:] I promise we won't bite. We're here to help.

Now, then... Tao? If you can hear this, I think I owe you some time to "play." Don't keep me waiting, hm~?

[And true to her word, she'll be out in front of House 48 to wait on Tao for a sparring match. She's way out of practice and the cat needs to get it out of her system from time to time, after all. Anybody passing by later may want to watch out for a bo staff, flames, and cat claws. They're just playing, I swear.]
not_meatbuns: (The wide wide world)
[With all the experiments and insanity at the clinic finally dying down, and the weather finally warming up (and not pouring rain), it's time for a break. Litchi has been looking forward to this trip for months, and finally having her chance to get out of the house and have some time alone with David is a huge relief.

Even though she can see the rainclouds starting to build up on the horizon, this is still their chance to get out for a day or two. And hopefully this time will not end in fiery sneezes.

What better destination for a romantic day off than the hot springs?]




[[ooc: Feel free to run into Dave and Litchi on their way to the hot springs! Although they may lineface a bit. Thread with Dave chronologically comes last.]]
not_meatbuns: (The King's word is law! Chop chop!)
[Tonight, Luceti. Tonight, Litchi is out for an ~*adventure*~. An adventure starting from the bar and slowly working its way out around the village.

...She's definitely had a little too much to drink tonight.

After spending some time in the Good Spirits Bar, harassing other customers, she'll eventually find her way out into the cold night, set on an adventure. Dragging along one David Jordan, and probably also plenty of other people along the way.

But it's not an adventure unless they're dressed for it, right~?]

[[ooc: Anyone who hasn't replied to the permissions post to let me know if drunk!Litchi can dress up your characters, please let me know! Today's theme is Disgaea. 8D]]
not_meatbuns: (Reading is fundamental)
[Litchi is taking a rare day off from the clinic. Only it's not even really a full day; she's just stepping out for a while for some fresh air and a chance to actually check in on her housemates. Watching diligently over Tsubaki is still her top priority, of course, but she needs just a short break from the clinic.

So it's a quick trip back to House 48 first to look in on Tao and Thirteen and possibly get a bath. And some tea. It's been far too long since she was home long enough to really have a chance to sit with her "family" for a while.

Then from there, she'll be heading off to the library to grab some new reading material. There are several things she's been meaning to do some research on, and it's about time she got around to it. She'll be at the library for a few hours before heading back, pausing only to make a note in her journal:]


[Written | Locked 100% to McCoy and Kamui]

Could I speak with you two for a moment when I get back? Something has been brought to my attention that I think both of you need to be aware of as well.
not_meatbuns: (♪~ [so drunk.])
[After a long recovery period and reading every single book in the house several times over, Litchi is finally back on her feet. She's still a little slow, but her cough is gone and her strength is mostly returned. So how best to celebrate?

A trip to the bar, of course.

Hey, she's missed the company. Really. Totally not just a boozehound.

So here she is, perched on a bar stool, cheerily nursing away at a margarita. She may look sweet and innocent, but there is imminent danger. Anyone who knows her well enough is bound to know, but... dare you approach and brave the risk of cosplay?]


[[ooc: Thread with Goroh chronologically goes first, but after that, feel free to come along and be pestered in some fashion! :D]]
not_meatbuns: (Mou... [blush])
[The past few days have been terribly confusing for Litchi. The teleportation thing has left her far more shaken than she'd care to admit; falling out of a tree and having a close friend just confess to you will do that to a person.

She's almost desperately seeking a distraction, although being stuck at home isn't exactly making that easy. The best distraction she really has is reading, but... she's already worked through all the books she has.

After some time of fidgeting, she caves in to the urge to ask for advice. Because this... is really not something she's prepared to deal with on her own. Or rather, she's been trying to, and recent circumstances have finally made it clear to her that she really does need outside help.

Once she's made her note in her journal, she stashes it behind a couch cushion in a particularly shoddy attempt at looking inconspicuous and goes back to trying to focus on her book.]


[Locked from Samurai Goroh 100%]

I realize this is a bit of a strange question, but... [...]

[The second part of the message takes her some time to find the words for, so there's a bit of a delay before:]


Is it completely foolish to hold on to a hope that there doesn't seem to be any chance of ever achieving? Even if holding on to that hope is standing in the way of finding happiness some other way?

...Is there any way to make letting go of that hope any easier?
not_meatbuns: (I'm sorry... [+Arakune])
TL;DR Action goes in here! )




[And later on, once she's had a chance to get her bearings, Litchi makes a note in her journal. Her handwriting is much sloppier than it usually is, but she really couldn't trust herself to make it through with a steady voice, so... written it is.]

Everyone... I don't think I can ever apologize enough for what happened. I never meant for it to go so far.

I can promise that it will never happen again.

i'm so sorry.

[[ooc: She's waking up in Thirteen's bed, but after that, action threads for House 48 are a-okay. ♥]]
not_meatbuns: (defeated)
Cut for major CS spoilers and length ;; )

[[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. ;;]]
not_meatbuns: (looking back)
[It's been a very long day. Litchi has been up since before dawn, tending to patients, straightening up the clinic, helping lost little boys, and overall working herself half to death. Only she's looking a ton more energetic than usual, and even as she's leaving the clinic for the night, she's still upbeat and smiling and cheerful.

No, she hasn't gotten into the drugs. Just before heading out to walk home, she'll open up her journal for a quick message.]


Well, it's certainly about time things returned to normal, don't you think? I've had more than enough excitement for quite some time.

Mr. Goroh, David, Miss Yayoi... make sure you're all home within an hour or so, okay? Just because Tao isn't home to eat all your food right now doesn't mean you can be late for dinner. I should be home soon; it won't take long to get back from the grocery store.

[[ooc: AU info this-a-way~ :D

Also feel free to run into her anywhere in the plaza or on her way back to her house. ♥ Or... well, in the house, for her housemates.]]
not_meatbuns: (defeated)
[After a couple days of absence, Litchi is back from her short trip home. And, as always with her, it's a bath tub that she's landed in. One Yellow Thirteen's bath tub, to be precise. And she's not in the best shape.

Resounding not only through the apartment, but over the journals, is the sound of the tub cracking as if under a tremendous amount of pressure. Litchi lets out a pained whimper, curling into a ball as best she can despite one arm being tangled in the shower curtain.

The Boundary has cut loose. And Litchi is absolutely terrified.

The journal picks up another quiet groan before she falls silent.]

[[ooc: Backdated to a couple hours before the earthquake! Also, sorry for unannounced disappearance for the update ;;]]
not_meatbuns: (Seithr sucks bro.)
[In what spare time she has today, Litchi is getting everything together for her leaving for the war front. Straightening up the house, making a trip to the grocery store so that Tao will have enough to eat without having to steal from others -- hopefully, cooking up as many meatbuns as she can in a couple hours, and finally heading out for a walk after the sun has gone down. None of this is sitting well with her at all, but she's determined not to let anything go wrong this time. She can't afford to let any harm come to those she cares about, and there are plenty of close friends to protect this time around.

It's going to take a ridiculous amount of strength, she knows, but... well, if the limiter on her powers is removed for the battle, she knows she can handle it. So long as she's there, she won't let any harm come to those she's protecting.

She just hopes Lao Jiu is up for this.

At some point during her rushing around, she'll make a note in her journal to try and clear up the one last thing she's worried about.]


[100% Locked to Bang Shishigami]

Bang? I'm sorry to spring this on you with such short notice, but... could I ask you a favor?

[/Lock]
not_meatbuns: (serious)
[Litchi is on a guilt trip today. Any search for Noel has turned up absolutely nothing. She's been avoiding sleep again in favor of both searching in person and keeping an eye on the journals, but, in an all-too-familiar way, her searches are ending up fruitless. It's not just a ruined promise to Ragna that's weighing her down; it's guilt that this is the second person she's cared about and tried to save and utterly failed.

So while she's on her shift at the clinic today, she'll be a little distant, checking back on her journal frequently for any leads. And once she's off work, she'll be out for a walk along the edge of the forest, both to keep an eye out and to try and ease frazzled nerves. After all, it's really looking hopeless at this point. It's been days since she heard or saw a thing, but she also feels like she can't give up just yet.

Feel free to run into her either at the clinic or while she's out walking; she'll be out well past sundown.]
