*ITP there is a ninja making his way through camp. He seems distracted. He is also covered in blood*

--Ah.

[watchmycannon]

...It-- it is a simple enough thing to offer, as I have the facilities; and as I have no other way to help, at the moment...

[necessaryevil]

It's a frustrating situation.

[watchmycannon]

It is. And Camp has taught me that I do not deal well with this sort of frustration in particular -- of wanting desperately to do something, and having little to no options left to me.

[necessaryevil]

...Neither do I. I prefer to feel like I can be of some use somewhere.

[watchmycannon]

Precisely, yes. I am ill used to sitting on my hands.

[necessaryevil]

*nods in agreement*

Yes.

[watchmycannon]

[...Flops back on his bed, completely undignified, and sighs]

--And so often, when Camp reminds me of my powerlessness, is when I feel most alone. In Athlum I would have had the backing of my generals -- people upon whom I could depend to-- to make something happen, even when I was at a loss myself.

[necessaryevil]

*blinks at the flopping*

Camp has a way of making even the most capable of us feel helpless.

[watchmycannon]

That, I know.

Strangely, so knowing has never made me feel particularly better.

[necessaryevil]

No, that is true.

[watchmycannon]

--Ah, my apologies; certainly I did not bring you here to complain at you.

...One moment.

[Goes downstairs to move the clothes from the washer to the dryer :x]

[necessaryevil]

It's fine.

*waits quietly*

[watchmycannon]

[Returns!]

Hopefully soon I shall be able to return your clothes to you; my thanks for your patience.

[necessaryevil]

It's all right. I'm not uncomfortable at the moment.

[watchmycannon]

Good. I can fetch blankets for you, if you take chill.
