Fuda #40 [video]

[idealism]

[Tsuzuki has wanted to avoid making this video, but he doesn't see any other way. During the weeks since Hisoka came back from his abduction, he simply hasn't fared well. He's even gotten worse, which made no sense. Now that it's gotten to the point where he can't leave the house any more, he's quickly running out of options.]

This might sound like an odd request, but... I know we have several healers in town. Who are the strongest ones?


[He looks over his shoulder to make sure Hisoka is nowhere around.]

....I suppose doctors could work, as well. The bottom line is, I need help.

I see... your partner is injured?

[Voice]

[idealism]

Not exactly. He's sick.

[Voice]

[winds_voice]

[O-oh... there's a rather heavy pause as Eley acknowledges the mistake.]

Have you... tried to heal him before?

[Voice]

[idealism]

I can't. I've never been able to heal others.

[There's a trace of bitternes in his voice when he admits that. If he could save people that easily, he never would have had to lose anyone.]

[Voice]

[winds_voice]

I understand. Even my powers have limits. I am sorry there is little I can do to help.

But... be aware that some illnesses have no cure.

[His wings move anxiously behind him, finally folding together tightly on his back.]

I know. Back home I spend a lot of time with people that are in that situation.

[Voice]

[winds_voice]

[That seems to catch the Spirit's interest.]

...you did? Is that part of your job? What do you do with them?

[Voice]

[idealism]

I just... [He looks dejected. There's no good way to say it.]

I stay with them until the end.

[Voice]

[winds_voice]

That is very... brave of you to do. Not many would sit by and wait for death. Tell me though, does it offer them great comfort?

[He might be fishing for ideas for himself now...]

[Voice]

[idealism]

I don't know. I hope so.

I mean, that's what I'm trying to offer them.

[Voice]

[winds_voice]

I am sure just seeing a friendly face must help...

[It had comforted him to have help after all even when he didn't expect it. He pauses a moment, still feeling a little helpless...]

Do you need to talk?

[Voice]

[idealism]

Yeah, I think you may be right.

[He does. He needs it so badly his body hurts. But Tsuzuki knows acutely well what usually happens when he relies on people for support. They get hurt somehow.]

...No. It'll be okay. But thank you, Eley.
