And we smile, but never say too much; The moment always vanishing// [OPEN]

Who: Ichigo ([personal profile] suppressthedark)and YOU!
What: After his Hollow's little rampage, Ichigo finally wakes up and has to face what he's done.
When: Day 146.
Where: The hospital in Sigyn.
Rating: Uhhhh pg13?



[When he finally joined the rest of the living world, three days had slipped by. Three whole days and nights, laying silent and prone in the hospital room given to him, his body attempting to heal from the extremely traumatic ordeal it had been put through. The hollow hadn't given a damn about sleeping or eating, and the last fight that had made him stop...

...It had almost killed him, and he fears his life was bought with someone else's.

But for now, there's no one else in the room, at least no one he can see. Trying to turn his head only makes his still healing muscles complain, and when he lifts a hand (after accidentally trying to use the one with the ripped shoulder) to his neck, he can feel the new scar that's spread across his throat. No stitches, but then it hadn't needed it-it had been healed shut, anyway, but there was still tissue that needed to be regrown.

To that matter, he honestly would look like he'd been hit by a truck to anyone that actually saw him right now. That new scar at his neck, the blotchy purple bruising around his now mostly healed nose-and all over his back as well-the obvious stitches on his shoulder wound and the one near his neck, the wound running down all the way down and stopping just in front of his hips, and the myriad small wounds, cuts, and stabs he'd suffered. Add pale skin and large, heavy bags under his eyes to all of that, and you could say for certain that he feels as bad as he looks. Even worse, actually, since he was still weary to the bone and feeling no small amount of pain. But he doesn't feel like asking for anything to stop the pain, or even care that his body is going to be scarred up to all hell.

I deserve it, he thinks to himself.

Looking around the room, he can see some evidence of someone-or multiple someones-having been in his room at some point in time, although he'd be hard pressed to guess when. It's difficult even moving his eyes around in his head, and he'd really like nothing more than to go back to sleep and escape all of this, especially the guilt that's practically choking him, but it doesn't seem like he'll be able to go back to sleep so easily for a while. So-what else can he do?-he decides to just wait, closing his eyes with a sigh before opening them again miserably.

Patience never was his strong point.]

[Conan opens the door a crack to peek in. It's taken time to ascertain which room Ichigo is in and what state he's in -- he's momentarily taken aback at the condition of the other teen. Ichigo looks terrible. Rethinking his mission, Conan's about to retreat, leave the questions to another day, when a movement from the bed lets him know that his presence has been noticed.]

Ah -- Ichigo-niisan?

[ she had some time off of her job, so she had picked up a "get well soon" gift-- thought she had expected him to still be out of it. pushing his door open gently, she attempts to tip toe in-- ]

Eek!! Y-you're up!

[Orihime had just stepped out of the room for a second to go get a canned coffee while she waited. She was just coming back with it when she heard Ichigo stir in his bed. She'd been there most of the time he'd been asleep, helping the healers off and on and taking turns with them so as not to over-exert herself - after all, if he found out she'd hurt herself (or worse) trying to heal him, he'd be even worse off than he already was going to be]

Kurosaki-kun? Are you awake?
sicarius: (Dove questo andrà)

[personal profile] sicarius 2012-09-20 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
You're awake.

[For the past three days, Ezio has been there for two, sitting in the windowsill and watching him recover. The first, he was in his own bed and room, recovering from exhaustion and the last wound he received from Ichigo's hollow. He's been in and out, sometimes running across Orihime and other times on his own. All the same, he's there because of concern, and brotherly worry.

After all, most of those wounds came from him.

Still, to see him moving, and even trying to be awake is promising. Now, all he needs is to get rid of his guilt. Caterina pointed it out clearly when he carried him to the hospital, and it's one he's determined to get out of his system, one way or another.]

Ah, don't worry about it!

[ she grins and sets her bag down, then pulls up a chair. ]

Welcome back.

[personal profile] holyfight 2012-09-20 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
[she's not even gonna say anything - she'll just kneel beside his bed and wrap her arms around his shoulders to give him a hug]
sicarius: (Confermare)

[personal profile] sicarius 2012-09-20 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
[He knows that look, and the tone of voice given. Ezio climbs out of the window and approaches, sighing. Whether you want to face him or not, he's coming to see you. It's not fair for family to be just out of reach.]

If you are going to spend your time here blaming yourself, don't.

[He sits in a chair right by the bed, arms crossing and head tilting, giving him a slightly amused look, but also somewhat stern. Heads up, this is probably going to be another lecture from your future-sensei, Berry.]

[Conan obeys, carefully shutting the door behind himself and coming closer to the bed.]

Ha ... Ichigo-niichan's seen better days!

[ Take notice of your door, Ichigo. It seems inclined to slip in human-shaped colossal failure now and then.

Soft-spoken human-shaped colossal failure. ]


It stays white. The ceiling.

[ He does, in fact, have enough experience to say so. To know those absent little looks.

...and to cough rather awkwardly, because there is no discreet way to transition from intruding on someone's post traumatic recovery to polite conversation. ]


-- sorry. They said you wanted... needed...

[ And this might be a strategic time to fuss with the lunch trey in his hands. ]

[after another few minutes of silently hugging him and maybe sniffling a little, shush she lifts her head up]

It's alright, Kurosaki-kun.

[personal profile] holyfight 2012-09-21 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
[now she's rubbing his back in comforting circles with one hand, while rubbing the back of his head with the other]

If it helps, I've not heard of anyone getting hurt by the hollow.
sicarius: (Frustrato)

[personal profile] sicarius 2012-09-21 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
[Ezio snorts, and even if he can't see it, that frustration sure can be heard loud enough.]

Amico. [A pause as he sighs.] So you are just going to stay there, and wallow in your misery? Blame yourself for something you had no control over?
sicarius: (Urlo)

[personal profile] sicarius 2012-09-21 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
Do not say that again.

[Being yelled at is nothing new to him- however, in this case, it only irks him more than he already is. He snaps back, angrily, voice rising to meet Ichigo's, and pointing out that he is unafraid to match the boy word for word, to make him realize how this whole thing was not something he could have predicted.]

This was not something you chose, do not blame yourself. If blame were to lie at anything we caused, no one would be trusted nor given even a chance to show they are not what others may think they are.
