Has anyone found a way to burn things yet?

[ The voice that comes over the network is clearly exhausted, an almost husky rasp to the words that are slightly muffled, as if her mouth might be covered by a layer of fabric. ]

Because I'd love to get rid of these damn flowers and burning them sounds really cathartic right now.

[ She sounds weary, frustrated, and a little bit sick. And for good reason: one of the perks of being a vampire is an enhanced sense of smell. ]

Alternatively, are there any magic users out there who could set up a ward or something to keep this smell out?

I—

[ The offer takes her by surprise despite the fact that it shouldn't. She's seen that Riku is a good person; even with their brief interactions, that has been perfectly clear. So, of course he would offer to help in whatever way he can. ]

Thank you for offer, it means a lot to me. But I'm okay. I need to see how long it takes to heal on its own.

[equinoctials]

Understood. It's good to see where your limits are.

[ Elena seems like someone who's been through a lot, it doesn't make feel any better about the fact she might be hurting for the lesson, but he can understand her reasoning and respect her decision. ]

If you need anything, reach out, okay?

[otrazhenie]

I will, thanks. You too, okay? If you need anything.

[ Because he seems far too much like herself and unlikely to do things for his own benefit. It's just an impression, a simple guess, but she's going to run with it he proves her wrong. ]
