idolpro | The Last Supper

[ All things considered, the room looks fairly comfy. Dark mahogany walls are decorated with wine red velvet curtains, and chaise lounges and deep-cushioned chairs in matching upholstery arrange themselves in front of a large plasma TV screen that can receive input from any idol's smartphone, though it cannot be changed from the current screen.

A hallway attaches to the room, branching off into two hallways. In the inner hallway, there's a kitchenette—it holds no food in either the fridge or the cupboards, but perhaps as an insult the fridge door's inside shelf holds a gold-framed painting of split pomegranates with seeds artistically spilling onto the ground. At least it's not entirely useless as a room—there are any number of melee weapons in the cupboards and shelves, each weapon's handle furnished with decorative snakes in the unit's color.

Past the kitchen is a modest bathroom that nevertheless uses the majority of its space for its bath and shower, including various skin and hair care products (though no electric plugs, despite the presence of hair dryers), sparkly bath bombs, and a seemingly endless number of wine red towels and bathrobes. Across the bathroom is what seems to be a luxurious sleeping room, somehow large enough to hold as many beds as needed for the unit; the sheets are similarly wine red with what feels like a million thread count, and the mattresses and pillows might be made of the softest material in existence.

The outer hallway leads to the mud room, which leads toward the outside. ]

[Shouldn't he be dead?]

[He sure looks like he should be dead]

[He staggers out of the doors to the courtyard, missing an arm from the elbow down. The other hand is pressed to the gash in his neck, as though attempting to stem the flow of blood, and he's listing badly to one side]

I owe you both an apology.

[quickly moving over to support him if he needs it]

It's OK Bagel, there wasn't much you could do if you were targeted.

[He does need it; he's barely on his feet, honestly]

I could have not died.

Did you both go down, too? Because of me?

I won my fight so don't worry about that.

[bringing Bagel to lean against him]

I'm sorry we can't heal you, but just take it easy.

[Just. Leaning his full weight against him, yeah. Lucky for Hardy, he doesn't actually weigh very much]

[He slumps a little more, when he hears that Hardy came through okay]

Really?

And after the fight, you still made it?

Yep, felt different, but I made it through.

[pat pats Bagel on the head very lightly so as not to aggravate the neck wound]

[Just leaning here, don't mind him]

How'd it go?

He wasn't bad in a fight, but I had the advantage due to how the game works, I think. Actually, he was kind of composed about it, even if he wasn't gonna give up. Did mention that his unit might not be so understanding so that could be a thing down the line.

That could be a problem.

Maybe, but we knew there was a chance that any given target or their team might not take it well. I'm not feeling too charitable towards whoever hurt our newest member myself. Did you manage to catch what unit and member it was that hurt you?

She said she was Alizarin, of ☆Zrael.

[He would not be naming names if he wasn't under a hate effect, but - there we are]

Well, we don't have an alliance with anyone from that team so that's not surprising. Still lousy of them to do.

They had to hit someone.

Same as us.

Yep, but you're one of us and you're new, so you take priority.

To you.

Not to them.

[ childe, for his part, looks fucken PISSED. ] Who killed you? [ no apologizes necessary. ]

She said she was Alizarin, of ☆Zrael.

[ his expression grows dark. ] ... [ growls, but manages to dial back his anger. ] How are you holding up? [ going to look him over a bit more closely. ] Let's get you to the bathroom and take care of some of this...

[He would not be naming names if he wasn't under a hate effect, but - that's what games effects do]

Do we have bandages or anything?

I didn't see any.

[ tugs him into the bathroom and motions to the toilet. ] Have a seat. I think I can make do with what we have here. [ going to rip up the bathrobe, tearing it into shreds, so he can use that to wrap the wounds he's got. ]

[ but first he's going to get a damp washcloth, offering it up. ] Here.

Thanks.

[Takes it, careful, and starts to wipe away some of the blood]

[After a beat, he reaches up to take the mask off, to wipe his face off, too]

Edited 2022-02-27 01:20 (UTC)

[ folds his arms and rests against the counter next to the toilet. ] ...you'd think we would have been able to protect you in some fashion. Killing other people certainly didn't do jack shit for us. [ besides, you know, sating our hunger. ]

I guess that isn't how it's meant to work.

Sorry.

That I couldn't fend her off.

...I guess not. [ he reaches over and sets a hand on his head, ruffling his hair. ] It's not your fault. It looks like a lot of units suffered in the first round. Bad luck or something. I'm sorry you had to go through all that and we couldn't even do dick to help.

Like you said.

It's just bad luck.
