[06 ~ Video | Locked to Hayate]

[blahblahblah]

[Rita is known to research topics that are interesting to her. She's also been known to steal spell ideas from sources that make themselves known. A certain young girl's recent post happens to have done both at once, and simultaneously make her intrigued, curious, and worried. Notes are taken on the bright pink death beam and she starts to get some spellwork done, but there's something nagging at her as she reads the rest of the message and responses; once she realizes Hayate has persistent medical issues that just aren't going away, and that the girl is looking for magical help, she sighs, bringing the community to bear.]

Hey, kid. I saw that you were looking for someone to take a look at you. I'm... not much of a medic, but I know someone who is, and I can probably figure out enough to know if she'll be able to help you at all.

[It hasn't yet occurred to Rita that perhaps the girl won't take well to offered medical help from unknowns that have offered their services out of the blue. Then again, even if it had, she likely wouldn't have cared anyway.]

Comments

[blahblahblah]

It would be too cruel of me to have this power and not use it. Besides... [The girl regains a little of her normal composure.] As a scientist, it would be wrong to pass up the opportunity to investigate. If I'd found something, it could advance medical science so it never happens to anyone else again, right?

[She shakes her head.] I'd better stop stalling, otherwise I'll be here all day. [Rita starts pushing books to leave.] But if anything happens, you know how to reach us. [Click, as the odd chained book makes a faint sound at the movement.] And even if not, talk to us anyway. [Click.] Talking to you'd be better than listening to Karol ramble about monsters any day. [Clunk, as the bookshelf shines.]

Bye, Hayate. I'll be back in a few weeks. [She waves, ready to hop through.]

[lil_tanuki]

Mmm. I'll talk to everyone as soon as I can. Thank you again, and be safe, Rita-oneechan.

[Hayate smiled, waving at her as she watched Rita prepare to make the world jump.]

[blahblahblah]

[Rita just grins as she hops through; since she doesn't need to stop anywhere else this time, she finds herself back in Dahngrest, in Altosk's conveniently unoccupied office. Her expression immediately falls.]

I made that girl a big promise. How the hell am I gonna organize a party on another world... wait! If I ask the others...!

[She laughs a little to herself as she starts outside, glancing down at the duck around her neck, fire in her eyes.] I might be able to pull this off after all.
