[After several attempts to leave her room and get some fresh air are thwarted by her housemates, Estelle's going crazy. It's nice and all that they're all concerned, but a girl can only stay in bed so long resting before she wants to pull her hair out in frustration. The fact that 'so long' amounts to about 24 hours is another issue altogether.]

So I suppose asking people 'If you were stranded on a deserted island, name 3 things you would bring' is pointless now, right.

I'm sick and stuck in bed. Tell me something awesome that's happened to you recently? Or not so recently. I think we could all use a pick me up right now.


[She's grown bored of attempts to train chickens to bring her things. It's not working out so well.]

I finally got to try papayas again.

[ Which is a pretty small 'something awesome' and probably not much help, so... ]

If you're looking for distractions, do you like riddles?

Hey, Estelle-san, it's Minato. Are you okay? You've probably got Joshua-san and everyone looking out for you, right?

[Still, he's gotta check.]

[brightlyshines]

Really?!

[Small to some other people maybe, but Estelle was exceptionally fond of food, so to her that sounded delightful.]

That's pretty awesome! Especially in a place like this.....

[Riddles though..... Well, if it wasn't a certain masked weirdo's riddles, it couldn't be that bad.]

Riddles aren't my usual thing, but I'm not saying no. You've got some fun ones?

[brightlyshines]

Hey Minato. I'm doing ok! You?

....I just wish they'd let me go outside. I'm not that sick.

[She's absolutely that sick. She didn't get sick often luckily, but...]

[recommending]

Really. My house got three crates of them earlier this month.

[ He's actually not sure they'll be able to finish them all in time, oops. As for riddles. ]

I think they're fun. Try this one, first.

You're given a single match and locked in a dark room. Inside is a candle, a fireplace, and a gas lantern. Which do you light first?

[brightlyshines]

Wow....! We got a bunch of coconuts, at our house. Not quite as filling as yours, unfortunately.

[The shells were kind of useful, though. All that work for a few bites though kind of sucked to Estelle though.

Her answer to the riddle comes immediately after, because the answer seems fairly obvious to her... unfortunately.]

The candle? So I can light everything with it.

[recommending]

Coconuts are still tasty, and they go with papayas. If you want we could trade some of each.

[ And as for the riddle. ]

You light the match first.

[messianic]

I think, if they're keeping you to bed rest, you probably really are that sick. Sorry, Estelle-san, I can't risk it by rescuing you.

But we can chat if that'll help keep you busy. Let's see... Well, seeing everyone mostly safe and sound and back probably counts as something awesome, right? That all aside, I still really enjoyed that flower crowns day we had.

Someone made me lunch.

[brightlyshines]

I've BEEN sleeping.

[This is what bluohaus has to deal with, RIP.]

Of course I'm not going to sleep all day, I'd go crazy!

[brightlyshines]

Ooooh. Was it good?! What kind of food was it?

[Estelle is Always Here for food talk.]

[brightlyshines]

But Minato......!

....Not that I expect anyone to manage a rescue that gets past Joshua. I swear he's got a sixth sense sometimes.

[The dangers of having a boyfriend who's skilled at sneaking around: She'd never manage to sneak past him. She's never beaten him at poker, either.]

Yeah, getting everyone back to town was definitely awesome... and the flower crowns were, too! It had been ages since I had a chance to make one, so it was kind of fun.

[brightlyshines]

The match?!?!

[.....Because to light any of them you had to--

Oh.]

Geez, now that you tell me that it feels so obvious!

[thoushaltnotdie]

You're sick? What with? Maybe I can help.

[brightlyshines]

Probably a cold or something? It got really cold and wet on that island with all the rain, and all the fighting we had to do didn't help much.

[Neither did the limited food and fresh water supply.]

[messianic]

Yeah, that's because he's an anime ninja.

[He knows she won't have any context for that...but it still has to be said, sorry, Estelle.]

Does that mean you used to make flower crowns before? That was the first time I'd ever made any.

[nascere]

no you havent

you're sick STAY IN BED

[ ESTELLE........ ]

[brightlyshines]

Anime.....? What's that?

He is pretty skilled at a lot of things, though....

[Nope, no context at all. She's just confused now.]

And I used to make them sometimes when I was a kid! That was really your first time?

[brightlyshines]

i can only sleep so much!!!!!!

[Noctis can't see it, but she's totally pouting at her laptop screen.]

fresh air is good for health too you know!

[messianic]

Hm... like stories back home, I guess. There are a lot of people in them that remind me of him, that's all.

[anime ninja edgelords mostly.]

Yep, really. I lived in the city most of my life, though, so flowers for flower crowns weren't that common, I guess. Better late than never, right?

[recommending]

That's what makes them fun. Even if you get them wrong, the surprise of knowing the actual answer makes it worth it.

[Something 'awesome', hm?]

i once helped a man find a reverse rainbow

[thoushaltnotdie]

Hm, I have something to help with fever and coughs if it's anything too bad. If nothing else, I've tea here with me that might soothe you, if nothing else.

Re: #F0E68C

[brightlyshines]

[....Ok that definitely sounded awesome, even if Estelle is having trouble imagining it.]

A reverse rainbow? Those exist? What do they look like?
