GATHERING GREENS. ( various )
( rutile's venture into leviathan's labyrinth had cost them— a foot to be precise. although for the jewel the loss was nothing more than a minor inconvenience, they still had to take care of it now that the watery threat had been tamed. in order to make something akin to the glues and powders they used back home, it seemed they were on their own to gather the materials.
close enough to arito, the lydeet plains were the first spot on the map. there were plenty of greens here, almost as far as the eye could see... which made locating the particular plant rutile had in mind all the more difficult. ) All these species I've never heard of before...
( truly, the chemist job was coming in more and more handy on this trip.
onto the next continent, all things considered, it was a nice time of year to visit the nashee archipelago, really. at the water's edge rutile took a moment to admire the beauty of the sun and the sea— thinking how, back home, it would have been a perfect day for sunspots to appear. how strange, not to have to worry about the threat of the lunarians in the sky anymore.
with a shrug of the shoulders, they're back to the task of locating some seaweed... wading into the water until they're waist-deep. ) It's got to be around here somewhere...
( the last stop was the zeruda fields. with a tome in hand, rutile flipped through their marked pages one last time— comparing the white flower with golden flecks to the shrub they found themselves in front of. in the extra time they're taking to confirm the findings, an ochu seems to have waddled its way over, unbeknownst to the doctor, so far...
help? )
ADHERING TO PROTOCOL. ( arito )
( clack, clack, clack—
the sound echoed throughout the quiet hallways of arito hospital. rutile wouldn't have taken time out when it was busy during the day, and had waited until the evening lull to get to their task.
clack, clack—
it's the sound of shards of mineral being pieced back together. if you venture in to the empty patient room that's the source of the nose, you'll find rutile leaning over a bed with an intense look, working directly under the bedside's light. they work with meticulous concentration, so you'll have to forgive them if they don't notice you right away.
clack—
if you look closely, you might notice it's starting to take the shape of... a foot?
putting it down for a moment, they push themselves back from their seated position, drawn in a deep breath, and stretch. )
HARD DAY'S NIGHT. ( arito )
( now that that unpleasantness is over, rutile is back to work, hardly missing another day after they're put back together again. the abundance of paper never ceased to amaze them as they replaced a file back in its place and closed the cabinet. it was a relatively quiet day at the hospital today it seemed, so there weren't many staff members around. which is why rutile is a bit surprised as they walk out of the lounge to see someone at the desk. )
Ah, hello. May I help you?
WILDCARD.
(( feel free to run into rutile anywhere else along the way, even if you just so happen to be catching the same airship! depending on the timeline, you may run into either the full-sized version, or the ¾ length variety. ))
no subject
( they're already gloved up thanks to the fact that... they're always gloved up. grabbing for the sterile water, they reach for the burned arm, intending to grasp it gently, as they begin to pour the cool liquid on that affected elbow.
then slightly higher, trying to work around the sleeve... and definitely soaking it in the process with a— ) Tsk.
How did this happen, anyway?
no subject
It was one of those fire things. The ones that look like crappy jewelry.
[The Fire Elementals, in other words. They aren't organic, he knows that much.]
When we're done here, I'm going to finish kicking whatever it has instead of an ass.
no subject
I apologize, I— ( shit, that had really caught them off guard. )
no subject
[His reptilian eyes narrow and he reaches up to rub at the spot Rutile had rubbed harder than they needed to. He knows them well enough by now that something must be distracting them, and he decides not to ask.
...
...Fuck.]
What's eating at you? You're always more careful than this.
no subject
when they speak again, their voice is low, with a serious edge to it. )
You've seen it, haven't you? The jewlery people around here wear, just like it's nothing...
( and then, in case that wasn't enough to make it ominous... ) Back in my world— that's what we're hunted for.
