Characters: Yami Bakura and Nanami & and whoever would like to visit them.
Location: Hospital
Rating: PG-13
Time: May 21st – May 26th
Description: Yami Bakura and Nanami share a hospital room after their disastrous mission in Venezuela. Yami Bakura will be unconscious until May 25th, but Nanami will be here all week folks awake for the most part.


The room was silent with the exception of the machines beeping to remind visitors that the two bodies in the room were still warm. Nanami spent her time awake staring at the ceiling or out the window and periodically glancing over at her dormant partner in the other hospital bed that occupied the room.

He was covered in various bandages with bruises peeking out from behind them. His hair was sticking out in a more ridiculous manner than usual due to the bandage wrapped around his head like some sweatband from the 80’s. She had been updated on his condition shortly after she regained consciousness and besides the things you could see he had also twisted an ankle and had been poisoned by one of the monsters they had tried to fight off. The antidote had been administered shortly after they had arrived at the hospital but he was still unconscious.

Nanami hadn’t managed to get off scot-free either. Aside from the usual cuts, scrapes and bruises she had some deep lacerations on the left side of her back that had been stitched up and she was still anemic.

Mello blinked as the reverie-like effects of the resonance faded away, and his surroundings seemed to become clearer, as if they'd been out of focus while he concentrated on helping Bakura.

"We're giving Jerkface here a hand," he told Nanami. "Are you all right?"

As all right as she could be, given the circumstances, he meant.

[shiromadoushi]

... Jerkface, huh? Bakura couldn't help but look a touch awkward there. But... he did refer to the spirit just as "that jerk" so often...

"I can heal, as part of my Weapon ability..." he explained further.

"Jerkface..." she repeated slowly. He wasn't the first one to refer to Bakura as a jerk, Ryou had also done so the last time they spoke. She'd been better but she didn't know these two very well so she replied: "just a little tired."

Healing abilities, well that was convenient, she still wasn't exactly certain what her abilities actually were yet although there were a couple possibilities. "I see. Your weapon form... is what then?" She hadn't really been able to see it from where she was.

Mello had to refer to the guy somehow, didn't he? It wasn't as if he'd ever got a proper name out of him.

"Yeah, sedatives will do that." She looked banged-up enough to have warranted a decent dose. Of course, in Mello's case, they'd usually been a precaution against him trying to leave as much as they'd been for painkilling purposes.

He'd let Bakura field the question about his form.

[shiromadoushi]

"1d10," Bakura replied before amending: "A ten sided die."

Even if he had does his best to conserve energy, healing did take a lot out of him.

She nodded a little at Mello. All it took for her to stay bedridden was an order from the doctor with a few exceptions.

Nanami looked at Ryou blankly even after he expanded upon the original geek speak. She wasn't aware of the fact that there were dice with more than six sides. "Ten sides..." she mused aloud. The former student council president was normally pretty self-centered but she was also pretty drugged up at the moment so she didn't notice Ryou's fatigue.

"If you don't need me anymore today, I should get back to work."

Mello was still going through security footage, trying to find any trace of the kidnappers, though he suspected they'd long since left Death City.

[shiromadoushi]

"Aaa-- un, sorry! Thanks again for your help..." Bakura bowed slightly. Didn't matter that he'd thanked Mello a bunch of times already... he was well aware that his request had imposed on Mello's schedule. [and Near's with how the other was hovering just out of range]

[morecowbell]

Nanami sat up a as far as she could manage and bowed her head to Mello, "thank you for your help in this matter."

[want_the_world]

Mello gave them both a nod in return, then looked to his partner, amused that Near had spent the entire exchange without saying a word.

"Your shift's taken care of, so concentrate on healing up," he told Nanami.

To Bakura, he said, "Let me know when you want me to come by tomorrow."

[shiromadoushi]

"I will!" Bakura smiled warmly. "And let me know if there is anything I can do in return for the favor, OK?"

She nodded at him while settling back down on the bed.
