{Today, Diva tows along a few unusual items with her to the Plane. She appears sitting in a plain chair at an equally plain table, which isn't that extraordinary, but on the table sits a variety of items. There's a small book (opened to pages on cleaning burns), a large bowl of water, bandages, and towels.

Diva herself is wearing the unusual outfit (for her) of jeans and a t-shirt, with bandages wrapped around both of her wrists. For anyone that knows her, they might assume that the bandages are just for show, but as she unwraps the bandages carefully until raw, bloody flesh is revealed underneath. The blood, of course, is black. Her expression stays absolutely cold and focused all throughout, but as she hesitantly dips her hands into the bowl of water, she can't help but gasp, bowing her head at the pain.

Thanks, Mu! But Diva will be delicately trying to wash the burns she got trying to stop Hei from breaking shit.}

[Christy is a hooker, so Sam is like 'what the hell' because dude blood and now he will be doing his concerned thing which he does about people in general but also his harem]

Diva?

[madamemoiselle]

{ilu2, man. AND HA, YOU ADMITTED THE HAREM.

I mean, Diva looks up, smiling slightly.}

Ne, hello Sam. It's not as bad as it looks, don't worry.

[didorothy]

What about as bad as you make it sound? I haven't seen your face look like that in a long time.

[last time, sadly, was not the throes of passion. More like "oh hey Sam I'm dying" "..."]

[madamemoiselle]

...Does it really sound that bad? {She laughs nervously}

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Diva? Goodness! What in the world happened?

[madamemoiselle]

{Calmly, though her words sound a bit strained}

Mu burned me, that's all.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Mu did? [Wat.] Whatever for?

Ah, hold still a moment and I shall heal you.

[madamemoiselle]

Hei was trying to hurt this place, so I wanted to stop him. Mu didn't approve, I guess!

{She looks down at her arms and shakes her head} Ne, that's nice of you, and thank you, but...I don't know, it'd probably be better to let them heal themselves.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Hei did? Ah...the dangerous young man I have heard about. What in the world was he trying to harm this place for, and how? Is he a complete fool? And Mu... [She can't believe Mu would hurt anyone for no reason, so she figures there's more to the story.]

Well...if you are quite sure, then.

[madamemoiselle]

He was upset because Misaki is gone. He wanted to hurt this place, and...I couldn't let him do that. I love this place too much.

{She seems to be getting used to the pain, or at least ignoring it more effectively}

Don't feel bad, though. I just...Well, I just don't want to try and depend on someone else for something I'm nor sure about. I've never had burns this bad.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Misaki is gone, truly? Oh dear...well, that he was upset is understandable, but attempting something like that. [She shakes her head.] And Mu? How does Mu figure into this? He and Hei are friends, if I recall.

I see. That is rather wise of you. [She's fretting a little about what this means about Diva and Mu and everything.]

[madamemoiselle]

Honestly...Ne, even if Hei and I are friends, I couldn't let him take all of this away from me. So I was going to kill him, probably. Or at least incapacitate him, because...I couldn't bear to lose the Plane. That's why Mu hurt me. He didn't want me to hurt Hei.

{Nods a bit} I'll just let them heal by themselves! Since burns have to heal normally, it's just...different. I'm not used to it.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

...I see. [She's frowning and looking deep in thought.]

No?

[madamemoiselle]

Well, it's just that burns don't heal for me right away. It's kind of scary, I guess.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

And yet you heal instantly from most everything else? Why are burns different, if I may ask?

[madamemoiselle]

Mm, I don't really know. It's just the way things have always been.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

I see. I suppose it is one of those things that simply cannot be explained.

[madamemoiselle]

If it can, then I don't know it.

{She looks down at the bowl again, then to the book}

I wonder if that's long enough...How clean should it be, do you know?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Quite clean. As clean as you can possibly make them. Burns are quite difficult, because they usually have a very large surface area, and they are quite prone to infection.

[madamemoiselle]

Oh, infection, that's right...

{It sounds like she forgot about that}

Well, maybe a little bit more, then, and I'll bandage them up again.

[mouthyplonk.livejournal.com]

Diva? Are you all right?

[madamemoiselle]

I'm fine! I just got burned, that's all.

{Her definition of 'just got burned', though is third-degree burns}

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

Diva? What happened to you?

[madamemoiselle]

Ah...Mu burned me, that's all.

[shatteredqueen.livejournal.com]

[see that eyebrow? yeah, it's raised] I would hardly call that 'all.'
