[have an old man that's been gone for a while appear lying on the ground face first with the traditional Tales HP/TP bar hovering by him, along with a slew of status effects symbols.

HP: 5/3570
TP: 0/289
POISON
DISEASE
CONFUSION
STUN
PARALYSIS
DEFENSE DOWN
ATTACK DOWN]

I wonder what's for dinner tomorrow......

[Something you don't exactly see every day. Lucky on you that Sephiroth's gotten used to random floating status bars around his own vision.]

...Are you still lucid?

variable_edge March 24 2009, 19:52:36 UTC

[just weakly raises a hand before it plops back down again]

Lucy? Who's Lucy?

[yeeeeeeeeeah.]

silvergeneral March 25 2009, 03:27:59 UTC

[Yes, well, that answers that question. But at least this man still has speaking capabilities, and doesn't seem overly inclined to pounce on Sephiroth, claw open his chest, and bathe in his blood. All very good things.]

...Right. Well.

[He holds out a bottle of pain pills. They're... not exactly right for the situation, but it isn't like he carries much in the way of other helpful drugstore implements, right?

--Materia wat?]

variable_edge March 25 2009, 03:57:55 UTC

[yes it really is a good thing the old man doesn't want to do those things to Sephy for that would be. Odd.

Don't have a healing materia? LAMER. But pain pills will help.

Manages to sit up and takes them, his HP bar now reading 134/3570]

Ugh...thanks...man I feel like somethin' ran over me...

[Have a Hayley coming at you, maybe prodding you with a stick.]

I think you need to heal.

variable_edge March 24 2009, 19:54:25 UTC

[well at least his defense stats are high enough that all you see are little 0's appearing]

Heals...would be nice...a Recover or somethin' would be nice, too....

vulnerableliar March 25 2009, 13:09:11 UTC

[She's starting to wonder what would make 1's and 2's pop up. Must. Resist. Poking. Harder.]

Yeah. I don't play video games too often, so I don't know anything about healing or recovering or magic. Uhm. This is cool, though.

variable_edge March 25 2009, 16:15:26 UTC

[hey. hey. only has 5 hit points left, you don't want to KO him do you?!]

Video games? And how the hell is this cool?

...

[Rydia stares, then rushes over. She doesn't need the numbers to tell her that the man's in need of help, though glancing to the various status messages below them. Ignoring her music, she accesses her inventory and...good, she still has plenty of those. Putting away the menu, she withdraws the Remedy and rolls him over, pouring it down his throat.]

variable_edge March 24 2009, 20:06:45 UTC

[well this is a slightly different taste, but he can tell that it's similar to what they have back home. And those status effects will be disappearing!

...Unfortunately he's now sitting up and coughing because he almost choked]

eidolon_soul March 24 2009, 20:28:14 UTC

[Rydia helps him to sit up, an apologetic look as he coughs. As was customary for the past few days, her words were repeated in a transparent blue text box, with white letters.]

Sorry about that, but I lack the proper spells to lift all those ailments. A Remedy was the only way, that I had available. What happened to you?

variable_edge March 24 2009, 20:39:34 UTC

[smacks his chest a few times before giving her a small wave of the hand]

N-No no--[coughhack]--s'all right. Got the job done.

[another deep breath and he's more or less fine. Still low on health though so he isn't completely recovered]

Thanks for the help. Not sure what exactly happened but I'm guessin' those Malnosso people used me as a lab rat of a kind.

[Suzu's hopping branches looking for evil searching for Pokemon casually when she notices this old man.

It was odd enough for her to pause. His outfit seems like something that people would wear back in her world - her village even, and for a strangely unexplainable reason, she felt as if she understood those floating boxes, but only half of them. Poison, stun, and paralysis? They ran into those all the time. Hm, since when you can actually see when attack and defense are reduced or not? Though, that set aside, what's 'disease' and 'confusion'?

...Well, the nice green-haired lady helped him out, and he looks fine now. Maybe she should just be on her way...]

*Light thud*

[Oops, dropped that Melange Gel right on his head. Well, she still had all the trees to hide in...]

variable_edge March 25 2009, 06:28:38 UTC

[What the-- smacked in the head by a gel]

The hell--

[picks it up and heeey he recognizes this! He will now be lookin' up]

Since when did this tree grow gels? ...Wait gels don't grow on trees.

sweet_shuriken March 25 2009, 06:34:49 UTC

[She's just going to sit there and not move and not make any sound. Hiding and camouflaging are part of her profession, after all. :|b Old men are supposed to be not interested in things and smell, so let's hope that he gets bored, take the Gel for granted, and be on his merry way.]

variable_edge March 25 2009, 06:43:18 UTC

[you do realize that Raven is part ninja himself but that's besides the point. Unfortunately you got a bit more of a perceptive old man so he's going to stand and pull out his bow]

Well now, I guess this could come in handy...should probably harvest a few more~

[and these will be a couple of arrows suddenly flying in your general direction :O They shouldn't hit. At least. Not supposed to. Just reeeally close maybe? 8D]
