Crystal

[okayimin]

[ The message will come shortly after Marcus has (at some point) passed near the sick room window. Her tone is as stern and scolding as a person drowning in their own mucus can: ]

Ser Marcus, please remember to wear a scarf when you're outside. It's bad for your throat to go without so often.

[luaithre]

[ The fuck-- ]

Did your countless spies inform you also that I am wearing a necktie?

[okayimin]

[ First of all. ]

A necktie isn't a scarf.

[luaithre]

No.

[ That's true. ]

You sound ill.

[okayimin]

I-!

[ A brief interlude for some raspy coughs, directed away from the crystal. ]

I'm fine.

Comparatively.

You should wear a scarf.

[luaithre]

Were you wearing a scarf?

[okayimin]

I was.

I was also neck deep in sick folk, so don't you be clever with me, ser.

[luaithre]

[ There is trace evidence of amusement as he says-- ]

Of course, my apologies. Thank you for reminding me. You're taking rest in the sick rooms?

[okayimin]

Been forced to, yes.

[ She is deeply unhappy about being thwarted still. ]

[luaithre]

Mm.

What would be useful for me to bring you?

[okayimin]

Oh no need, you're more likely to catch it yourself if you show up and the less we have ill the better.

Which is why you should wear a scarf.

[luaithre]

I've been told I have a very good constitution.

[okayimin]

[ With all the prim irritability she can muster at the moment: ]

I would much rather know for certain you're keeping properly warm than trust the say so of some unknown persons.

[luaithre]

Very well.

[okayimin]

Thank you.
