-49 [accidental voice]

[There's a dull thud as Yuan's journal hits the ground and apparently falls open. This sound is drowned out, though, by the following scream;]

AAAAARGH! WHY ALWAYS THE CURTAINS?!

[The poor man has just returned from a few hours of training in the forest to find that Zoisite had a bit too much fun decorating while he was away. It's not just the curtains, which now have a cheery flower pattern. There's several vases scattered throughout the house and the tablecloth also supports this flora design. Just wait 'till he sees the fuzzy carpet in the living room.]

Then obviously, you should still be resting.

I'm fine. Besides, I have to- *Been talking too much. Spending a few seconds coughing now.*

... Rest.

It's just my throat. *And his back, but he doesn't consider the pain from a couple dozen whiplashes on his back to be worth staying in bed for...silly boy.*

Which isn't going to get better if you keep running around for no reason. So keep your nose out of other people's problems and focus on your own first.

That doesn't matter.

I don't see why not.

What happens to me doesn't matter as long as I can help everyone else.

An attitude like that gets people killed.

As long as I'm the only one that gets hurt. *Self-preservation? What's that?*

Don't think it's that simple. Other people get hurt watching you die.

I'm not sure anyone here cares about me enough to be upset if something happens to me.

I doubt that.

After all the trouble I caused for them, I'm lucky they don't still hate me.

They will if you keep that pathetic attitude. Pull yourself together or nothing will change.

*A bit of coughing.* They have the right to.

I never said they don't. I'm saying they don't have to.

They won't have any reason not to if I don't do anything to make up for my mistakes.

Don't you get it? You can't make up for your mistakes if you end up dead. That just implies you ran away.

*Slight intake of breath, he hadn't thought about it that way. However...* Death isn't permanent here.

So what? You still end up losing something. Good luck helping people when you've gone blind.

*A pause.* I hadn't thought about that...

Then next time, start thinking things through before making rash decisions.

Right... *More coughing!*

Now focus your attention on recovering before you end up regretting the fact that you missed your chance.
