[lempereur]

I do not wish to alarm you, but I will be missing dinner tonight. If you have made any sort of escape plan, please postpone it for a couple of days.

[lapapesse]

Saying you don't wish to alarm me just makes me worry more. I'm still working out the logistics of an escape plan, but now I have to ask what you did?

[lempereur]

I was attacked and lost a significant amount of blood. I will not have the strength to make any potential journey.

[lapapesse]

You WHAT? By what!? [Does Makoto need to shank someone.]

[lempereur]

A vampire, apparently.

[lapapesse]

A vampire. What do you mean there are vampires here? And who...?

[lempereur]

I do not see why that is more far-fetched than summoning gods from our spirits.

[lapapesse]

[Point. Also...] Ignoring that there's an actual vampire, and more to the idea that you got ATTACKED by one. Who is it?

[lempereur]

Attacked may have been too strong of a word.

I am not looking for revenge, merely to inform you so that you do not worry.

[lapapesse]

But you lost blood to a vampire... which means they fed off you?

And loss of blood is going to worry me, Yusuke.

[lempereur]

Yes, there is no denying that he did.

I am no longer bleeding. I just need to rest.

[lapapesse]

Yusuke, you can't just tell me you got attacked and then try to tell me nothing is wrong!

... Do you need anything?

[lempereur]

This was several hours ago. Kakyoin has helped me clean up and get comfortable.

[lapapesse]

As long as you're sure. You're not feeling too faint, are you?

[lempereur]

I am, but not as severely as I was initially.

[lapapesse]

Keep your legs elevated, and drink plenty of liquids and... eat things with iron in it. The food here isn't great, but any red meats you can get would be good.

... And please stay away from things that are trying to hurt you like this...

[lempereur]

If I had known that was going to happen, I would not have engaged.

[lapapesse]

I would hope not... [But also she KNOWS YOU PEOPLE and she wouldn't put it past any of her friends.]

I mean it though, Yusuke, we need you.

[lempereur]

Thank you.

If you like, you can help by informing the others not to look for me.

[lapapesse]

I'm not sure I can do that. If they want to be concerned about you, maybe I should let them.

But I will let them know you're alright for now.

[lempereur]

They know I am in good hands.

[ He's not sure if Makoto and Kakyoin are acquainted, but he knows she wasn't here for Patera like they were. ]

[lapapesse]

You've still been attacked. But if you're sure.
