[Just. Listening very closely, standing just off to the side. She doesn't want either of them to feel her vibrating anxiously.]

[ simply, silently, smiles at them. kind of unfocused in the direction of smile. she does seem to respond insofar as her smile grows bigger but that is about it ]

Can you nod your head for ‘yes,’ and shake your head for ‘no’?

[She has some concerns about that smile but. Well. She will put that aside until she answers Reim.]

[THIS IS REALLY INCONVENIENT FOR A BLIND MAN!!!]

[ what if the answer is drop the broom and try to touch someone's face

anyone's face. doesn't matter who. probably reim's but she's not picky ]

[i didn't specifically icon him kicking lily but you know the page]

B-Break!!

[Oh well. Here we go. She's just-- gonna try to grab his arm.]

[ SHOVING HIS WAY BETWEEN THEM ALSO, turning his back to Specter and reaching behind himself to push her backwards as he also backpedals ]

Stop, stop! Wait!! Neither of you touch her!

--She's not trying to hurt anyone.

[ oof ow. did not attempt to dodge that at all.

perhaps unsettlingly she does not let out even a single sound, despite being kicked. she does stumble back however, dropping a tightly-crumpled piece of paper onto the ground—and she seems to have forgotten its existence, because she's reorienting herself again, still wearing that nearly-pleasant unfocused smile while she brings her hands up to pat the sides of reim's face. ]

[freezes at both of them shouting! but. he is absolutely losing his shit. she has his instincts going wild, and she's TOUCHING REIM.]

[ facetouched. ]

...

I-I don't know why she does this.

[Blinking, Sharon gently picks up the crumpled paper, convinced that things have calmed down-- at least for the moment.]

...you dropped this.

[She uncrumples the paper.]

[ who is this note for? it's truly a mystery

only face touching now ]

What does it say?

[ I will let Sharon read the note aloud while I occupy myself turning around and reaching up to try and put Specter's hands down to stop touching my face ]

[After reading it silently to herself, she closes her eyes and summarizes the details.]

...it details the symptoms of "oripathy" as well as several suggestions regarding the treatment and alleviation of those symptoms.

As for the symptoms... listed are "crystals", tiredness, pain and "sleep".

Regarding treatments... it states that removing the crystals should alleviate symptoms. But it also lists "rhodes island medication" and designates the suggestion box. Which likely means it's a substance we have limited access to, as it likely comes directly from her own world.

It says to ask someone else as well, however... I cannot read that part.

Finally... there is an apology for you, Reim.

[She folds up the note and hands it to Reim for keeping.]

[ he can lower her hands but at what cost (the cost is she's holding his hands now) ]

...

[okay he cannot fucking cope with this actually.

just.

turning and leaving.]

--Xerx-

[ - letting go of Specter's hands to take the note, quickly scanning it over himself-- ]

[ -- huffs, taking a marker from his pocket and turning over the note, holding it on the back of his hand to quickly but neatly scrawl a reply

Thank you.
- Reim Lunettes

and tries to fold it neatly into quarters despite the paper's crumpled state ]

[ presses the paper into Specter's hand ]

Please try to keep this in a place where you're sure to find and read it once you're awake.

[ and turns on his heel to go run after Break ]

[Sharon reaches out to try and stop Break-- but it's too late. And the moment Reim is finished, he's gone too. She drops her hand and turns back to Specter.

She doubts she can catch up to them so instead she turns to Specter and... places her hands on her cheeks.]

...thank you. And... I am sorry.

[Then she leaves too, making sure to close the door behind her.]

[ she will hold the paper tightly, but that leaves one hand to press to the back of sharon's hand while she's still there—still wordless, but maybe she understood?

in any case, she's not chasing after them. have fun kids ]

[Break is breaking into a run the second he's out of Echidna. he knows he can't hurt her, she didn't mean to do this, she's sorry, but the ramifications for Reim are very real anyway and he. doesn't know what to do with that. doesn't know what he can do. this isn't something he can fight, and he feels his uselessness keenly.

so yeah, trying to outrun his feelings. good luck.]
