[ The news feed comes on, and poor Cheria doesn't look so good.

Like, seriously. She's looking like she'll fall over at any moment. Obviously someone made herself sick.

But she still seems to be trying to go on with things, because that is how Cheria rolls. ]

Asbel, Sophie, Pascal, Captain Malik ... [ She almost says 'Hubert,' but nope, Hubert hasn't lived with them for a while. She remembers that and stops before she can say his name. ]

I thought it would be easier to contact all of you here, rather than individually. Dinner's going to be a little late today ... I ended up oversleeping a little.

[ And from the looks of her, she should still be in bed. ]

Just thought I would let you all know ...

[ And with that, the feed turns off. She's off to go start dinner. Someone, please make her go back to bed? Even if you're not immediate family, she really shouldn't be up and doing anything in her state. ]

[He's just hanging around today, trying to search for present ideas based on what the Graces House residents do in their free time. Totally not spying or anything.]

Cheria.

[She looks like she used to when they were kids.]

You don't look so good.

[ Oh, Asbel wasn't at work today? She thought he was. It was a nice surprise to see him, though, definitely, and it shows in how she smiles at him. But it's pretty easy to tell that she is not in any condition to be walking around and doing things. ]

It's nothing, really.

[ Change of subject? ]

You're not at work today?

It doesn't look like nothing. Do I have to get Sophie in here?

[Giving you the "not buying it" face Cheria.]

I...uh... took the day off.

[ YEP going to conveniently ignore the question about getting Sophie in there. ]

You took the day off? Is something wrong?

[ Other than the fact that Cheria herself is sick? ]
