[The amount of sympathy shown when Yuan was taken was moving, really. After a few days of being experimented on, the Malnosso have decided to just dump him in the forest where they found/captured him. Still conscious, though in pain, he manages to pull the journal towards him and write an extremely sloppy message. With his own blood, I might add, because he doesn't have a pen.]

Lost my voice and feeling in my legs. Need assistance. In forest.

[Those who know Yuan longer than two weeks will realize that the situation must look pretty bad if he's actually asking for help. So seriously, cut the guy some slack and help him out here. He's lying face-down in some clearing, no doubt]

Lost voice, huh? Oh dear! Where in the forest are you?

[ooc: USAGI-CHAN TO THE RESCUE!]

[fortunefail]

[listening intently, Yuan can hear water in the distance]

Near river.


[[OOC: Don't ask him too many written questions. He's running out of blood. XD]]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

Near river! Alright, I'm on my way!

[ooc: Do the rescue in the journal?]

[action-y]

[fortunefail]

[Yuan pushes the journal away and rests his eyes for a bit. The origin of his 'ink' is the palm of his left hand, which has a nasty gash across it. Other than that, you can't really see any injuries. His wings are a bit ruffled, though]


[OOC: Sure! That way, people can jump in, because I'm not sure if Usagi can carry the guy by herself. He likes wearing lots of random armor pieces, you see, so that makes him heavier than he should be. XD]

[action-y]

[Usagi stumbles through the forest, tripping every now and then. About a half hour later she spots someone in the distance.]

HEY!

[When she finally reaches him, she kneels down. Her big blue eyes widen as she comes to the realization that she won't be able to carry him.]

This could be a problem!

[OOC: Usagi can't carry books without falling all over the place. The chances of her carrying an injured man are close to zero. It's the thought that counts, right? XD]

[action-y]

[fortunefail]

[Yuan's eyes open in recognition of Usagi, but he can't really say anything. Then he comes to the realization that he's gonna have to wait with this girl until someone else comes to help out. Awkwaaard.]

[Albert's own journey into the forest comes awhile later, as he took the time to gather what bandages he had leftover from treating Caesar; considering Yuan's post, it seemed like he would need it. He sees a blonde figure by the river and heads in that direction.]

What's the situation?

[action-y]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[Usagi nearly shrieks when Albert speaks to her, not quite expecting it. She turns to him and frowns.]

I don't know, I just got here!

[action-y]

[fortunefail]

[Yuan manages to prop himself up on his elbows and raises an eyebrow at them both]

[action-y]

[chikaidestroyer]

[Albert shakes his head at the girl's reaction, but moves over to Yuan.]

We'll need to tend to any serious wounds first. Then we'll carry him back.

[action-y]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[Usagi nods.]

I know that, but I can't tell where any are!

[She gently prods Yuan in the forehead.]

Want to point to where those nasty wounds are so we can take care of them, blue boy?

[action-y] (I really need to choose an action format XD)

[fortunefail]

[Yuan flinches and mouthes something that's most likely a curse, but no sound comes out. Then he holds out the palm of his left hand to show the deep gash.]

[action-y] (XDDD)

[chikaidestroyer]

You don't need to aggravate him-- What is your name?

[All the same, Albert moves over to inspect the deep gash. He produces a half-empty bottle antiseptic from a small pack and begins applying it.]

I hadn't heard of the Malnosso rendering people mute before.

[action-y]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

[She winces and squeezes her eyes shut. Eww, Nasty blood.]

Ah, Ugh, Usagi Tsukino.

[She squints, too curious to keep her eyes closed, and gnaws the bottom of her lip.]

That looks ... really painful. Is there anything I can help with?

[action-y]

[fortunefail]

[If Yuan still had his voice, he would be able to explain that he lost it after a full day of loudly trying to curse the Malnosso into oblivion. Oh, cruel irony!]

...

[The gash is sorta painful, but Yuan's used to injuries like that. He doesn't really care about it.]

[chikaidestroyer]

I can't say I'm surprised.

I will come and assist.

[fortunefail]

[were he able to, Yuan would express his gratitude. But he can't. All he can do is wait.]

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

Yuan?

Is somebody coming to help?

[Lloyd has no idea how to deal with this. xD]

[fortunefail]

[Yuan writes a squiggly, bloody "Yes". He doesn't really want Lloyd, of all people, to see him in this state.]

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

All right... um...

If you need more help, I'll come.

[fortunefail]

[he's momentarily astounded by the fact that Lloyd does care, but then remembers that the kid is a hopeless idealist who even wanted to make friends with Yggdrasill. So, he writes another response]

No.

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

...All right.

But I better not find out you died out in the woods.

[fortunefail]

[Yuan smiles bitterly, then closes the journal.]

[salvationfound.livejournal.com]

Don't die.

[fortunefail]

[Yuan is moved by Kratos' sudden decision to care, but doesn't write any response whatsoever. Were he able to, it'd be something along the lines of "I wasn't planning on it any time soon".]
