[Voice] On the right track for the wrong reasons

[attheclocktower]

[For all she'd told Shion she was fine a few days ago, the cough had started later that afternoon and everything else had come out of nowhere and hit her like a giant Heartless. She was so tired it was a bit difficult to get out of bed, and everything just seemed to be getting colder - though it was hard to tell with how cold everything already was. Meanwhile, her whole body felt like it was aching.

The voice coming across the feed is a very special kind of miserable, maybe a little worried too. She doesn't usually post on the network but right now she doesn't have the energy to drag herself throughout the Tower looking for people she knows.]

Do we know if the Tower is doing s-s-something...? I... [she pauses to cough] feel really bad, and I don't get w-why. I've never felt like this before.

[Guess who's never been sick a day before in her admittedly short life? Not to mention it's a Jason month if the food is anything to go by and she's seen the occasional other person coughing and such too - and the whole "spread of disease" concept is totally lost on her.]

[MY BABY.

Axel picks up on her straight away and responds shortly after.]

Where are you?

[attheclocktower]

[She'd sort of let her head list to the side a little while waiting for a reply. At the sound of Axel's voice she lifts it upright again.]

A-at the terminal nearest my room.

[He'll know where her room is, since he's been there, and there aren't too many terminals in the Tower anyway.]

[He might not be feeling the best himself right now either, especially with the weather as terrible as it is, but for Xion he can make a quick trek over.]

What're you doing out anyway? You should be staying inside.

[attheclocktower]

I just [cough cough] Wanted to know what's going on. Why I'm feeling like this.

[And if it's Tower stuff, because if it's Tower stuff it's probably going to get worse before it gets better]

[flared]

[Axel sighs.] Might be something from the weather.

[A beat,]

Go back inside.

[attheclocktower]

[Xion frowns]

But I am inside...

[You might need to clarify a little Axel. Normally she'd get what you mean but right now her thinking's just a little fuzzy.]

[flared]

[Gah.]

That's not what I mean.
