SICK DAY MEME
| There's not denying it, you're feeling crap. School, work, a date, tea with nana, mowing the lawns, doing your laundry, that important meeting... you can't make it. You want to stay in bed and maybe you just need a little TLC in the process. What is YOUR reason for that ever-fateful call in sick that every boss just loves to hate? RULES: - Leave a comment with your character's name, fandom, and any preferences you have. - When replying, RNG for a number between 1 and 16. - The number corresponds to the scenario that you will play out in any way you feel the urge. - The poster is the sick person, the tagger is the one taking care of them/keeping them company. - Go from there! |
THE LIST:
1// COLD
It's just a boring old sinus infection and you probably could go in, but you're not because bed is just too nice.
2// FLU
You feel like you're dying and everything aches, but it's not quite serious enough to arrange your own funeral yet.
3// MAN FLU
Doesn't anyone understand how sick and miserable you are?! You can't function! The world is ending! You need cuddles, and hugs, and you can't do ANYTHING by yourself!
4// STOMACH BUG
Uh oh, this is going to get messy...
5// FOOD POISONING
But that meal was sooooooo good. The best you ever had! Why is it betraying you so badly?! Never eating ever again.
6// CONCUSSION
You've been hit in the head and now it feels like it's going to explode. Being horizontal is the best option, and not even in a good way.
7// MONO
Everything hurts, you feel sick, you don't want to move, you don't want to eat, but you're in it for the long haul. Company and maybe some cuddles with chicken soup might be nice.
8// CHICKEN POX OR MEASLES
SPOTS! Spots everywhere! Yes, even there! You look hideous and it itches so damn much. Don't scratch, don't scratch... oh screw it!
9// LARYNGITIS
Your throat hurts so bad and now you can't talk. How are you going to communicate, maybe you need a little bell? Is it bad form to text message someone sitting right in front of you? Who cares, you want chicken soup.
10// HANGOVER
It's still sick, right?
11// BACK PAIN
You don't know what you have done, but you woke up barely able to move. You probably shouldn't have done what you did last night... and you should probably rest it.
12// INCAPACITATING INJURY
You got hurt, you can move much, and you're stuck in bed. Is it a broken bone? Torn groin muscle? Cracked ribs? Whatever it is, the world clearly hates you.
13// POST ROUTINE SURGERY
It was a simple procedure and now you're back home. The only catch is, you can't be alone for 48 hours in case of complications, with the added bonus of it hurts like a bitch.
14// POST MAJOR SURGERY
You're stuck in hospital for a few days and have a gaping surgial wound. There aren't even any hot nurses. Now what?
15// LONG TERM ILLNESS
You've just been diagnosed with a longer-term illness (of your choice). You're feeling poorly and don't want to be alone.
16// ANYTHING GOES
Something not listed here, have a wildcard of your choice! Anything that might lead to a timely sick day.

mememaster !
Rin Okumura | Ao no Exorcist (manga) | ota
momcaretaker than a patient for sure.]guess who
[please help this poor suffering-from-a-cold demon.]
no subject
[Rin's small tirade was given as he walked from the kitchen to the living room where Night was on the couch, piled under blankets with a gross mess of used tissues (and their boxes) overflowing from a nearby trash bin. He walked out with a tray laden with both easily to intake food and medicine.]
It's a cold for cryin' out loud. Yuki gets these all the damn time. You'll live, I promise.
no subject
This isn't normal for me! Demons don't just get sick... [she sniffs, pulling the blanket over her mouth to stifle another cough.]
When I die... please scatter my ashes over the garden, okay...? [is she being dramatic? maybe.]
no subject
Humans get sick, and you're still usin' a human body. One that was stuck out in the snow for almost two days. You're damn lucky sick is the only thing you got.
[Tray set down, he held a hand out to her.]
I'll scatter your ashes in the garden when you die, but that won't be today. Now sit up.
no subject
I can't smell anything... how have humans survived this long? [really it's the lack of scent for her that really rubs her the wrong way. she depended on her sense of smell for damn near everything so going without it was... very hard.
she looks blearily over at the tray he set down, mildly curious.] What is that?
no subject
[The entirety of human history was honestly a giant mess of spite and determination. At least that's how Rin saw it.]
Its soup. Trust me, it'll help. That and the medicine.
no subject
[she brings a spoonful to her lips, blowing on it carefully before taking a sip. there's a look of bliss and a slow exhale.] Ahhh, it tastes wonderful...
no subject
[He loved his brother, respected him as much as anyone could in their constant self imposed rivalry, but boy oh boy was Yukio a disaster in the kitchen.
Satisfied that Night was actually going to get something in her system, Rin went about picking up the mess of tissues and other garbage that had been neglected since she had returned home.]
Its gonna suck for a while but you'll be back to normal in a few days.
no subject
Rin, I can clean that up. What if you get sick too?
no subject
I won't. Even when Yuki had the most contagious crap I never got sick. I'unno if its a demon thing or just luck. 'sides, you need to rest. You're fuckin' lucky its just a cold and not like... pneumonia or somethin' worse.
no subject
she takes another sip, still frowning a little at his cleaning up.] Anyways, I doubt I could get that seriously ill. It's Yukio who should be the most careful around here. [not that she's willing to test her own luck on that assumption.]
no subject
[Seriously. Whenever people got sick around him they were just so miserable. Not something he wanted to experience.
The bag joined another in the kitchen, a 'take out later' pile that was a little bigger than usual.]
He's planning on keeping a good distance until you're better. I'm glad, honestly. He's even worse than you when he's sick. He becomes a puddle of upset noises and begging for attention.
no subject
Yukio? Begging for attention? [now that's a wild thought.] There's no way we're thinking of the same person, right? He seems more like the type to lock himself in his room for a few days instead of asking for attention... [she puffs out a small laugh that leads to another minor coughing fit.]
no subject
[Rin sat down on the arm of the couch, giving Night a gentle pat on the back for her coughing fit.]
He does have sides of him that you probably haven't seen...
[Or rather, sides of him that he hasn't shown to anyone in years, including Rin.]
no subject
Ah... so what about you, Rin? Do you have any sides no one else has seen yet? [maybe to someone who didn't know him as well they would think rin completely transparent, but night knows no one is ever that simple. she looks back to her bowl and brings another spoonful to her lips.] It all comes out in the open eventually.
no subject
[Geez, Night. Just because you're sick doesn't mean you can break out the hard hitting questions.]
Tch, no... Yukio is the one who hides everythin'...
no subject
What, you don't have a mysterious manly side of you hidden away somewhere? Or maybe you're saving it for a special person, hmmm...? [she grins a little with a no-good look in her eyes.]
no subject
Eh? C'mon, I'm totally manly! Why would I keep that secret?
[He even puffs out his chest like it will somehow make a difference in convincing her otherwise.]
no subject
Really? [she raises an eyebrow at him, visibly perplexed at his statement. then she tilts her head.]
Hm... I don't see it. Are you sure you aren't hiding it on accident? [she pokes his chest teasingly when he puffs it out.]
no subject
Rin deflates visibly, letting out a pouty 'heyyy...' at her comments.]
Okay, okay, geez. I'm still a kid, y'know...
[Something he wouldn't normally admit aloud, but with Night he was always stuck somewhere between 'comfortable enough to do so' and 'I know she'll just rib me incessantly until I say it'.]
no subject
I know. Sometimes it's easy to forget that, you know? [finding her appetite more or less filled she sets the bowl back down on the tray.] You just act so damn responsible at times it throws me off.
no subject
[Rin huffed and pulled a hand through his constantly messy hair, tail lightly thudding against the side of the couch.]
I know Yukio's got a lot on his shoulders. I can't keep bein' the fuck up older brother that makes his life worse...
no subject
He may have a lot going on, but that doesn't mean you make his life worse. Or that you're a fuck up. [still, she says it without much heaviness behind it knowing a conversation in that vein would just lead to something painful. so she looks at the medicine he brought out with the soup and picks up the container.]
Are you sure this won't kill me? Do you remember what I said about my ashes?
no subject
The question earns a quiet snort.]
I remember, but you're not gonna die.
