fashionably_strong[Though she typically prefers video communication, Bulla deliberately selects voice. It's difficult to tell whether she sounds a little off because she's tired, depressed, or sick, but she's definitely not her usual upbeat and sociable self.]
Hi, everyone. I could use some suggestions for a distraction or three. Preferably something where you don't have to move around much.
[Truthfully, she's tired, depressed, and not feeling well, though it's due to an injury rather than illness. Her mother has vanished from Luceti, and she's recovering from the worst injury she's ever had in her life courtesy of a cultist.]
...and if you're suggesting reading, please suggest a specific book, because I've already read everything I have here in the house.

I'll see you soon, Cliff.

He made his rounds, dropping by the grocery store to pick up the listed fruit along with a few other things before swinging by the rec center to borrow one of their decks of cards...and a few other things.
It wasn't too long later that Bulla had one (1) Klausian at her door, kicking at it lightly in lieu of knocking.]

Date: 2013-08-24 07:01 pm (UTC)Hi Cliff. Thanks for coming by.
[She almost offers to take everything from him, but as she moves her left arm, she's reminded all over again that yes, it still hurts. Instead, she opens the door wide for him and points to a coffee table in front of the couch.]
You can set everything down there.
Re: [action]
Date: 2013-08-25 05:12 pm (UTC)Aah-- thanks.
[He set everything down: fruit, a couple sandwiches that he let someone else make, deck of cards, small TV set that he 'borrowed' from the rec center, and a couple of cheesey films from Earth.]
It's not much, really...but, this good for you?

Date: 2013-08-27 09:48 am (UTC)It's great, Cliff. Thank you again.

Date: 2013-08-29 02:35 am (UTC)[She'd ask for help chopping up the fruit, but it's a simple thing, and she deliberately asked for fruit that doesn't require more than minimal effort. Coring a pineapple is more of a chore than she'd be willing to subject herself to at the moment.]

Date: 2013-08-29 03:13 am (UTC)That said, Cliff would have gotten up and helped anyway if it looked like Bulla was having a problem. But pride was just as important in anyone's recovery, and Bulla seemed like she was doing fine at the moment.]
I'm game for most anything you're up to, really. Just be prepared to teach an old man a few things if you want to go too far from something like poker.

Re: [ action]
Date: 2013-08-30 07:23 pm (UTC)Hm. I think we can manage something like that. At least, It'll be fun!
