fifth pokéball ☯ action/phone

A; 1447 Mitchell Road; morning

[After the last two days of having Canada and Holland die to keep any of them from going crazy again, Hilda decided there was no way she could let them keep doing it on their own. All she'd gotten were some cuts--admittedly painful ones, but she'd survived, right? Of course, getting the milk before either of them wasn't going to be easy, and she was sure someone would notice if she snuck out of her bedroom.

The solution, of course, was using the window and jumping out to where Samurott waited to catch her. So she takes the milk directly from the Milkman--trying to pretend she wasn't afraid of him--and drinks a bottle right there on the front step. It doesn't do anything at first, at least. Maybe she got lucky.

When Holland and Canada come downstairs, they'll find Hilda dumping out the rest of the bottles in the sink. She's feeling a bit sick to her stomach by this point, but not awful yet.]


B; 1447 Mitchell Road; afternoon

[Okay, now she feels awful, curled up on her bed clinging to Cinccino, sobbing into the little Pokemon's fur. Samurott is pacing her room, watching any who approach his trainer with a more critical eye than usual and nuzzling up to the girl as best a giant samurai sea lion can. As for Hilda, she's never been in this much pain before; her body is shaking from the sheer exhaustion of it.]

C; phone

[Hilda doesn't sound at all good--her voice is shaky and somewhat muffled, because turning her head any more seems like too much painful effort.]

What's the worst thing the milk can do to you?

[Mayfield is really going for all the traumatic days in a row here. Canada is upset with the others for trying to take turns with this hideous milk, but equally upset with herself for not working harder to make sure they don't get to it. As a result, she's checking on Hilda every so often, trying to make the girl comfortable. She knocks on her door, then opens it, addressing Samurott first, a glass of water extended in her hand as explanation. Her other hand is loosely holding a damp cloth.]

I just want to come check on her, Samurott. You know I won't hurt her.

[Canada gives Hilda a reassuring smile for that peek, as hard as it is, and goes to sit on the edge of her bed.]

Are you feeling worse still?

[identity profile] welljustwatchme.livejournal.com 2011-08-21 06:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I brought you water. And this. [Setting the water down with one hand, she sets the cloth over Hilda's forehead with the other.] Sorry if that's wet on you, Cinccino.

[identity profile] welljustwatchme.livejournal.com 2011-08-22 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I know, Hilda, I'm so sorry... Is there anything else I can get for you? Anything I can do?

[identity profile] welljustwatchme.livejournal.com 2011-08-23 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[Canada nods.] There should be some in the washroom. I don't know how strong of a dose we'd have to give you to make it work, though.

[There's a pause, while Canada chooses her words very, very carefully.]

You could take too many. I know I'm not optimistic that this won't get worse before it gets better. But it's your choice, of course.

[Canada just nods and rubs her hand over Hilda's back in what she hopes is a soothing manner. She doesn't know what to do for the girl, or any way of reassuring her that things will be better aside from "at least you should wake up fine tomorrow."]

[identity profile] welljustwatchme.livejournal.com 2011-08-30 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, Hilda... You know we really wish you hadn't. It's not something you should have to go through.

[identity profile] welljustwatchme.livejournal.com 2011-09-07 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
But you know we've both been through a lot more than you. It's... not pleasant, no, but you shouldn't have to experience this so young.

[identity profile] welljustwatchme.livejournal.com 2011-09-08 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[Canada doesn't know what to say to that, so she just rubs Hilda's back again, then stands up.] Let me know if you need anything.

[Staring. Just staring. You are so grounded.]

H-

Why would you do that?

[Hurrying over to move her away from the milk.]

... Um... isn't that kind of a matter of opinion?

[identity profile] pokeay.livejournal.com 2011-08-21 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
Well, if I had to pick... I think it would be the poison or the razor blades.

[identity profile] pokeay.livejournal.com 2011-08-21 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I think so, too. When I had poison in the milk... it took me almost all day before I, um... died.

But it seems not everybody dies.

[identity profile] pokeay.livejournal.com 2011-08-21 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
... Yeah... it felt like my insides were twisting and doing weird stuff.

[ he wants to say it was almost a relief when he finally died, but that sounds so morbid. ]

[identity profile] pokeay.livejournal.com 2011-08-22 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah... I see. [ which means she might die... he doesn't know what to do or say, now. ] I don't think there's anything you can really do to make it better, but... if you can, try taking some sleeping medication or something like that.

[identity profile] pokeay.livejournal.com 2011-08-23 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
If you want, I can bring you some.

[identity profile] pokeay.livejournal.com 2011-08-26 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
It's alright...! I have Lax with me, so it should be okay.

[identity profile] pokeay.livejournal.com 2011-08-29 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yep! My Munchlax. He was my first Pokémon.

[identity profile] pokeay.livejournal.com 2011-08-30 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
I did! It made me really happy, getting him back.

... What kind of Pokémon was your first?

[identity profile] pokeay.livejournal.com 2011-09-06 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
Oshawott...? I've never seen one before.

[identity profile] pokeay.livejournal.com 2011-09-08 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, I haven't gotten mine back yet, either. I wonder if it would show up in mine, though...?
