[ Oh no. Yuri doesn't want anything else in the ship to break again, so she looks over at Ichiban. ]
Excuse me, Mr. Kasuga. I'll go check the pods. Please let me know if you find something strange elsewhere. That sound doesn't feel fitting for this place...
[ And she gets right down to business, heading over to the pods to see if everything seems to be connected properly. ]
[ man he was just here to pick up some bandaids but sure i guess we're fucking around and finding out!! ]
You sure? [ he'd usually be a little more insistent, but there she goes... he can respect that kind of forward motion, because it's exactly what he would do. ] Holler at the first sign of something being off.
[ while yuri moves toward the back of the room, ichiban breaks off to check out the cots, seeing if there's any sign of them having been used recently. ]
[ a simple quest for bandaids can become so much more if you're in the right (?) place at the right (???) time. in any case, the both of them enter the medbay and can hear the persistent humming getting just a little stronger, but still lowkey.
yuri heads on over to the healing pods, which are just chilling right now in low power mode right now. it looks like they are hooked up quite securely to the wall and it doesn't seem like there's anything loose at a glance? yuri might just start feeling a little weirdly itchy on her hand. the humming continues, steady on.
meanwhile, ichiban goes to check the cots and sees that no one he recognizes is napping here. rather, there's just a sleeping shape underneath the blanket. it's breathing very slowly and steadily and is completely covered head to toe. ]
[ yuri scratches the back of her hand and searches for anything particularly out of place on the shelves. she'll see a lot of old anatomy books and some old cords just hanging out here. she feels something bump into her knuckles with a bzzzz sound, but just a soft brushing sensation now trying to dance right into her palm.
ichiban peeks under the sheet and the shape underneath just kind of deflates like a balloon. however, from where he has picked up the sheet to peek, there is a small, floating mote of light that kind of just drifts its way out. it makes a bzzzz noise also and kind of hovers near his face if he lets it otherwise it keeps its distance hovering by the sheet.
the humming is slowly joined now but a kind of... improvisational... plucking?
Her first instinct is to swat at it, but she probably shouldn't swat unknown things. That's why she tries to endure the feeling in her hand, and opens her hand to see if there's something wrong with it, or if there's something small that's irritating it. ]
[ ichiban doesn't do anything as the blob floats in front of him—in fact, he goes a little cross-eyed just trying to keep looking at it. he's keeping an eye on yuri out of the corner of his gaze, though he hasn't quite gotten the hint that she might be dealing with her own mystery friend (?)... ]
Uh... you think this thing is friendly, Yuri-chan?
[ you probably shouldn't swat at unknown things! when she turns her paw over there is just a small floating mote of light that just is vibing there. it's a little glowy and just kind of orbits around her knuckles slowly before lifting up to meet her at eye level. it is just a soft mote that drifts back and forth to the humming that now has it's little improvisational beat. it will eventually begin to rise and drift. does yuri follow?
ichiban pokes it and it seems to tumble back a bit before it darts in to try and poke ichiban back! right in the middle of his forehead! wow! it doesn't seem offended though as it sort of circles him and then proceeds to drift lazily through the cots now. there are a couple of strange, soft sighs - five more mintues and just what the doctor ordered followed by a slow creaking noise from one of the cots.
the lights dim a little more in the medbay. the two motes of light will slowly attempt to lead ichiban and yuri... together... to meet in the middle of the medbay. if they so follow... ]
[ BONKED... ichiban was set to follow his mote, but the quiet voices from the other cots grab his attention first. before he goes to meet yuri and her light in the middle of the room, he quickly rips the blanket from the creaking cot, then resumes his slow, lazy chase. ]
the creaking cot has its blanket is ripped off! the cot shifts loudly as it does so, but other than that there's nothing there. but there's a gruff little back to work... that fades off. the mote just waits for him patiently and will eventually lead him to where yuri is in the middle of the room.
the two little motes will meet in the middle. and here, for a moment there's almost a very reasurring warmth that fills both yuri and ichiban. they may bask in it for a bit if they so choose. their light feels just like sunlight, warm and just invigorating. ]
a photo has none little mote of light... but there's a pair of slim data pads laying on the ground in the photo now, face up with slightly chipped screens. those wasn't there before. :thonk: but they are there now if she looks.
the little light chums flicker a bit and then burst into wave-like shapes, dissipating. "NOT THE B-" is the last burst of sound you can make out as the medbay goes dead silent there afater and the lights return to where they were before. the humming from before has dissipated. there's only the sound of the eudora's ventilation now, steady and soft.
