Event Log: Flu Season

[hadrielmods]

Who: All characters
What: The event log for the Flu Season event
Where: All over the city
When: March 20th-March 30th
Warnings: Gross sneezing, sick people, and paranoia

It starts with a cough, a sneeze, a sore throat - something small and simple, easily ignored. But then your symptoms get worse. It's probably been awhile since you've been sick, that sort of thing doesn't usually happen here. You might be able to raid the shops for some tissues and tea before it gets too bad, and hopefully you've got a friend to help out until you get better. Surely it'll be over soon, right?

Until the fever sets in, and you start to understand why your friend is really there. They don't want to take care of you. They want to make sure this is the last anyone will ever see of you. They want to learn all your secrets. They want to steal your most precious possession. You know they're plotting against you, you know they're keeping something from you. What will you do to find out what it is?

Then, as the sickness fades, you realize it was all in your mind. Let's hope you didn't do or say anything too awful. But that friend of yours... they seem to have picked up your cough. Maybe you should help them out?

[over the past couple of months, Margaery has been a regular visitor to the Elf-House, so when she heard that people were getting sick, it was the first place in her mind to visit. she's honestly not feeling that well herself but she can at least fetch soup and tuck people in. luckily for her, the paranoia hasn't set in yet. perhaps the emphasis should be on yet]

You can sleep after you've had some of this broth. Come, it will only take a moment.

{Margaery has been welcomed to their home, and has made a good impact! Even when there are grumpy and ill Elves to deal with. Maedhros reluctantly pokes his head out from under the blanket and slowly pushes himself upright.}

As you wish. Did you make it for everyone?

[roseofthetyrells]

[Margaery would be pleased to know that. she's spent so much of her life being valued for her beauty and wealth that being appreciated for other things comes as a pleasant surprise]

Yes, there should be enough to last us days. Hopefully, this illness won't last that long, but just in case.

{The Elf manages a wane smile, leaning against the headboard.}

You are good to us, I thank you.

[roseofthetyrells]

[she smiles back warmly]

It's the very least I can do after how very good all of you have been to me.

[castintofire]

{The smile strengthens.}

You make it easy to be good to you, and for that, I thank you again.

[she blushes faintly at his words]

I--well, I do endeavor to try. It's good to know that I've succeeded.
