5.

[It's canonbump time again, boys and girls, and that means Jolyne is on the Plane again, and she's horrendously bloody. There are still-open wounds dripping blood at her shoulder, leg and side - and another halfway down her arm which has been crudely sewn shut with her own strings. She's breathing heavily, clutching her side, and is seated against a large rock over in the beach area.

She seems to be trying to close up her remaining wounds, but every time she activates her stand ability, it only causes bursts of more bleeding.]

Shit dammit. Have to... go find that guy...

[She leans her head back against the rock, exhausted. Thanks to time stopping while she's on the Plane, she can at least relax a little after that last grueling battle.]

[She turns her head to the side to look at Ammy]

Oh, hey. Thanks.

[She nods once and then she whips out the Brush. She draws several thick strokes in the air above Jolyne. In the next moment, the ink vanishes and many of Jolyne's wounds are starting to close.]

I can do little for the blood loss, but this should help quite a bit. I would recommend eating something, to help restore the blood.

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

[...Woah. Cool. Jolyne sits forward, checking the more gruesome of her wounds and watching the skin close over them.]

Eh, the blood loss I'm used to. Food I'll get around to eventually...

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

I could bring you something, if that is easier.

[She sits down.] Now, would you mind telling me how you got into this state?

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

Nah, I'm good. Really.

[She takes a deep breath.] You want the short version or the long version?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

If you say so.

Well, whichever you prefer, really.

[Jolyne ponders this. Short version will probably lead to having to tell the long version anyway, what with all the weirdness of her reality and all. She sighs.]

Oookay. Let's see... best way to explain this. [She shifts her position, leaning her elbows against her knees.] I was fighting this jackass guard with this ability to draw meteors down toward him. Only, they would always burn up before hitting him - that's where this is from. These, too. [She indicates the places at her arm, side and leg.] Oh, and I also got hit pretty hard by this one giant meteor before I was able to take the guy out.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[It takes Ammy a moment to process this.]

...Meteors. Well. That certainly sounds like a formidable opponent. I must say, it is a miracle that you are not dead. But, why were the two of you fighting in the first place?

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm lucky like that. [Jolyne rubs at the back of her neck.] I'm guessing it's something to do with the bone I'm looking for.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Still searching for it, I see. I do wish I could help you in some way...

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

Hey, don't worry about it. My world's definitely not a place I'd wish on anybody else - and I saw a guy during my fight that had the bone with him. I've just got to hunt him down.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Did you! Well, that is a start. Did you get a good look at him?

[allstrings.livejournal.com]

Er. He was kinda short and pudgy?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Well, at the very least, it is something to go on.
