A good day to you all.

I have heard that there is a case of the flu going around. The flu is no good at all. You should all stay in bed and eat warm foods.

If everyone would be so kind, I would like a list of people who are sick in bed. I plan to cook some stew this evening and tomorrow, and would like to make enough to share with those of you who are sick. I can also deliver it, if you would like.

If anyone has free hands for assisting with the cooking then I would appreciate that as well. Thank you very much. Let us who are still healthy stay that way.

I wouldn't mind helping. I think cooking something for everyone sounds like a good idea.

[Nevermind that she's sick and should actually be one of the people in bed.]

[badend_replay]

It would be the most appreciated.

I am Rika Furude. Have we met?

[uzuki]

No, I don't think so. My name is Shion Uzuki. I've only been here a couple weeks though, so I guess I don't know very many people.

[badend_replay]

It is a pleasure to meet you then, Shion.

The tower is not a place anyone should have to adjust to, but I hope you are getting used to it.

[uzuki]

It's nice to meet you.

Yes, I feel that way too. But on the other hand, I have met some very nice people here. So I suppose I am actually getting used to it.

How long have you been here?

[badend_replay]

A few months thus far.

Yes, there are many kind people here. I am glad you are getting to meet them, Shion.

[twentycoolpoints]

that's a great idea!!! there's a lot of people getting sick! And acting weird!

I can help! I can chop stuff??? stew's not hard, right?

[badend_replay]

The help would be very much appreciated.

It is not hard at all. I will teach you to make it, if you would like.

[twentycoolpoints]

you could teach me? cool!

what are you gonna make stew with? there's nothing in the kitchens except those bars.

[badend_replay]

I am hoping to acquire ingredients from the forest floors.

There is enough meat and herbs there for a good meal, I believe.

[twentycoolpoints]

ohhhhh

can people make stew without meat? it's still stew even if it has no meat, right???

everyone keeps making stew that's full of meat....

[ceasetoexist]

Feels like I don't have the flu anymore.

Anything I can do to help?

[badend_replay]

I am relieved to hear it.

I may need someone to watch the pot while I look for more ingredients. Is that okay?

[ceasetoexist]

Sure.

I can do that.

I'm the best at pot watching I have a medal in it and everything.

[vermicompost]

That's a good idea. It's very kind of you to do that. I don't know how much I'll be able to help, but I'll try.

voice;

[badend_replay]

The help would be appreciated!

Even if all you feel comfortable doing is watching the pot while I find ingredients, I would be very grateful.

voice;

[vermicompost]

I can do that. I'll come to help, then. Where are you cooking?

Voice;

[badend_replay]

Kitchen!

I am looking forward to your arrival, sir!

Voice --> action?

[vermicompost]

I'll be there as soon as I can. I can't move very quickly.

[He isn't a fast mover, but true to his word, he appears in the kitchen as soon as he can, walking with a limp, his left leg dragging. He smiles when he catches sight of her, raising a hand in greeting.]

Hello. Are you the one I spoke to on the network? I'm Kariya.

[stalemates]

i think a few people in room 1-19 need it

[badend_replay]

Is that so?

What are their names? Do you know?

[stalemates]

[Oh no, trolling is already failing, abort, abort]

huh their names? i don't know i just heard a lot of coughing in there

[sawthelockdown]

Why are you so eager to do this?

What are you up to?

[badend_replay]

mi???

I am up to cooking

and making people feel better.

[sawthelockdown]

but why?

[She doesn't know who's on the other end. Doesn't know their intentions. Why would someone want to deliver these things? What would someone like this be cooking? What's going on? Asako's not going back to her room, no, not after this.]

i know you're probably a good person but i've got to wonder, you know? how did you get the ingredients for the stew anyway? what's going on?

[badend_replay]

It is true that ingredients are hard to come by.

But with stew, we can pool together what little we have and make many good meals from it.

Are you wanting to try some?

[sawthelockdown]

[hinamizawa.jpg]

no thank you!!!! and you can;t have my room either

why do you want the room lists anyway

are you up to something i wonder

are you planning something i wonder

[badend_replay]

[ Rika would've been clueless a while longer, but the "i wonder i wonder" helps it click.

She checks the computer, wishing she could change it to voice. Or video... Can the tower's admins hand out the Hinamizawa Syndrome, or is this something else? ]

I am not up to anything.

My name is Rika Furude.

I am just trying to help.
