She wasn’t so much suffering a fever or illness than she was overheating entirely. The day was too hot, too dry, and her sensitive skin certainly didn’t like that. Paired with the fact that she breathes through her skin, the poor young girl was certainly having a time. She couldn’t go to a human doctor, how does one explain a multi chambered stomach, no lungs, and flipped heart to the poor person who would try to help her?
No, she would have to deal with this herself.
So here she was, sitting in the shade fanning herself, trying to remember where a pond was so she could go sit at the bottom of it. Her skin was dry and pale, ears folded downward, flicking occasionally trying to cool her small form. Then, out of the corner of her blurred vision she notices a shape- someone much taller than her,
|| 🔷 ||: ❝ Hax-? ❞
She assumes it’s them, she swore she’d stopped to rest closer to home… but perhaps she misjudged and found herself closer to the edge of the mountainous forest than it’s center.
“Ah—no, sorry, you must be thinking of someone else,” Diamond says, frowning and tilting his head towards the voice. When he’d decided to practice navigating woodland while he waited for Phosa and Linast to finish their visit to this world, he hadn’t exactly been intending to look for company. But he hadn’t decided to avoid it, either, when he’d sensed another mind nearby.
He’s glad that he didn’t. Now that he’s paying more attention and has heard the person talk, they don’t seem well.
His guide cane lodges in a bush while he’s distracted. Diamond mutters a curse and pauses to disentangle it, using an irritated flick of telekinesis to free the tip when it snags on a vine or something. Aside from the fact that people generally can’t resist helping when he looks like he’s about to walk into a branch, he remembers belatedly that this is another reason why he decided to do this while he had some time alone. He gets distracted too damned easily. “Fuck. One second…”
Once he’s free of the bush and reoriented, Diamond cautiously makes his way over towards the person.
“My name’s Diamond; he/him pronouns. Are you feeling alright? Can I help you find anyone?”
