Video; Day 1 of Fiddlesticks

[mynameisallen]

[Allen was looking off to the side for a moment, to Timcampy hovering close by, mouth open briefly. Allen was clearly not that amused for a moment before he speaks.]

Will you just go on my head for the moment, please? Then we can get something to eat, but I need to do this.

[With that being said the golden golem very happily goes to rest on the others head and instead of just settling in just starts to nibble at the other's hair for the moment. Allen sighed, content with that for the
time being before speaking.]

So... This... might seem like an odd thing to want to talk about but before I arrived here I've had times when I have lost any powers I have and I guess this leads me to worry about the possibility of it happening here and not having something to replace what I lost.

[He tilted his head back, the golem still managing to stay put at the time as Allen was clearly uncomfortable with what he was about to say.]

I am asking because I have a very serious issue that could kill me should something like that happen. I was once very lucky that I was turned into a zombie, but I worry that next time I won't be as lucky. [He sighed once again looking straight at the device.]

So I am asking if there is anyone who can do something that could help fix a... hole in the heart?

[As he asked Tim was once again flying off his head and toward the others ear going to bite it.]

Ouch! Okay, okay. I am moving. [With that he finally ends the feed.]

[ She should not... she should not... ]

Define hole?

[ Someone should stop her. ]

[mynameisallen]

It's...about as exactly as it sounds. Though not sure how else to define it really.

[He tilted his head to the side for a moment.]

It's hard to explain the how behind how I got it, but ultimately it's a hole that if there is ever an incident where I lose my left arm, then I'd die within minutes.

[sensitiveapple]

Has anyone tried to repair the hole?

[ Because she will! Damn the consequences. ]

[This, she knows something about.]

I've helped someone who said they literally didn't have a heart, last place I was in.

Is it just literal muscle replacement, or something more magical?

[Video]

[mynameisallen]

Wait... Someone who didn't actually have a heart.

[His mind went straight to. Was it a Heartless? But he knew probably not the case.]

I don't know... I should have really thought this over more, shouldn't I? I just know what the issue I have is.

Re: [Video]

[unfavorableinstigation]

He called himself a Nobody. He still had blood and everything, though.

[So, both yes and no, Allen. Right world, wrong being?]

I can come over and do a scan, see if I can get the right materials for a healing wizardry.

[It was definitely tricky stuff, but helping was worth it, wasn't it?]

[radishlobbyist]

[ Is it too early to drink? Because she wants a drink. ]

...and it occurred to you only now that you might want to get a hole in your heart fixed?

[mynameisallen]

I know. I should have figured it early. But honestly, until now I figured I'd still be fine no matter what. But considering what the train did not to long ago with that last world, I guess I am now worried.

[Would the train just let him die or what? He didn't honestly want to find out.]

[radishlobbyist]

I would be worried, too, in your place. [ No point mincing words there. The train has proved unpredictable at times, amidst it more sensible actions. ] We will have to see this taken care of. The boy who was brought back was restored to... well, not perfect health but to a state in which he could easily live and survive, but it would be better not to take the risk.

You should speak with Lady Wen.

[mynameisallen]

I will... if I know who Lady Wen actually is.

[eyeslikeblood]

A doctor, and one of my roommates. [ He pauses, and then smiles a little grimly. ] I'm sure she'll find you, given the urgency of your question. I hope someone can help you.

[ Allen.

Just.. literally everything about what he's saying right now. A very judgemental thought of Allen is the only proper response. ]

Don't call yourself lucky to have been turned into a zombie. I've met zombies. They were most unpleasant. [ Yes, she's not even weirded out by the whole hole in his heart part, she's seen that before too! She's more just worried that he like an idiot is only asking for help with that now?! ]

video;

[mynameisallen]

I agree with that. It was unpleasant to have to change what I ate during that time. But I was lucky in that if I wasn't I would have died within minutes.

[Otherwise extremely unpleasant of having to eat flesh and such. Had not been a fun time.]

[irrationally]

Idiot, how are you so okay with everything? [ Alice gets grumpy at the tiniest slight! How can he be okay with just having been a zombie, even if the alternative was death?

And yes, she does sound kind of annoyed! Because she's worried about him, and Alice honestly doesn't know how to express that in any other way. ]

I see now that it's not just going to kill you one day, but that it apparently already has. And you're just too stubborn to die regardless.

[Hey Allen, you remember this girl? The one who brought up other worlds?]

[Because she's giving the ICP the most incredulously alarmed stare.]

I'm sorry, what?

[After all those years in Paradisa, and this never came up?? Sure they hadn't been incredibly close or anything, but they'd both been on resident protection duties! How could she have missed something as big as... well, THIS?!]

Video

[mynameisallen]

[Allen was already aware that well something like this was shocking as well as thinking he was probably dumb about it. he wasn't expecting this.]

Uh... How do I expect this... There was once an incident I was involved in and because of that I ended up with my innocence and arm destroyed and left for dead with the hole. My innocence saved me and it blocked the hole up.

[Was that really the best way to explain this?]

Video

[wizard_redfive]

[Possibly not. Dairine at least has some context for his arm. Hard to forget that when he'd be spider-maning around the castle with its ribbon powers. But most of the innocence talk goes over her head.]

Okaaay... So innocence is the source of your powers, and you're worried that we'll lose our powers for one of these missions leaving you in an immediate health crisis?

[Video]

[azrthmtrnznthos]

I think you'd need to give more details, if you're comfortable, about your condition and the fear. I'm Raven, one of the Purple team members and a healer. Also well versed in various magic schools.

[This pinged on her radar hard, both out of concern for him and concern in general. She also knew well what it's like to fear something you could become...]

[Video]

[mynameisallen]

Details? Welll, I'm not sure how else to explain the details of it. I just know that when my innocence was destroyed... Which is basically what this is. [At that he lifts up with left arm.] It went into another form around me and some of it went into my system and plugged the hole back up.

So basically so long as I have the innocence I am fine. But if it gets destroyed again then I guess it goes back to the state it was in before.

Re: [Video]

[azrthmtrnznthos]

[Given how he held up his arm shortly afterwards, it was clear 'innocence' was something special with a specific meaning here. Probably magic.]

I can try and help heal you, so you don't need to rely on it. Since magic is involved though, I'll need to ask more questions about this innocence and about what happened. I'd understand if you weren't comfortable sharing.

[stealsyourheart]

Dude a hole in your heart?!??!?

[mynameisallen]

Yes. It was during a mission back home. Never overexert yourself because you never know who is close by that can kill you.

Video - Private (-ish because she isn't good at technology)

[really_sketchy]

I might be able to help. I have restored someone's heart before but it depends.

How was it broken?

Video - Private (-ish because she isn't good at technology)

[mynameisallen]

Wait, you have?

As for how. It was someone in my world with the ability to go through things sort of put something that could eat muscle and that's what made the hole.
