[ She should have said that comment about rolling her eyes at him out loud, he would have got a good laugh ot of that one. It would have been a great way to see if he really was feeling better too, seeing as the laughing would have inevitably led to a coughing fit.

Honestly, Soshiro was the kind of guy who, even if he was about to die, with no way out, would still find a way to smile and joke about something, after all he won't go down without a fight, regret or a smile on his foxy face. She'll learn that the more they hang out... If she ever wants to see him again after this, that is. ]

It's okay, I think we have the same affliction. It's not like we can infect each other more than we already are... Just, breatheNao-chan... You're suffering. I want you to lay down on your side and just take small, little breaths, okay?

[ He was still weak, still suffering, it didn't just vanish the moment he confessed his secrets. As the plants inside of him started to die off and withdraw, they still ached with each twist, making him wince every so often. He managed to stumble over to the window and even though it was cold outside, opened the window to make it easier for them both to breathe.

Hopefully with a little distance between them, what with Hoshina now slumped against the wall and sliding down it, just under the window, she might feel like she can relax a little? ]

Y'know... I don't know how it's connected but... I started to feel a little better when we were talking.
