4 ❀ 花吐き病

[konnosuke]

H A N A H A K I ✿

Hanahaki is a fictional disease in which the victim coughs up flower petals when they suffer from one-sided love. It ends when the beloved returns their feelings (romantic love only; strong friendship is not enough), or when the victim dies. It can be cured through surgical removal, but when the infection is removed, the victim's romantic feelings for their love also disappear.

[ Aw crap. ]

I'm kinda busy.

[ He's not even remotely busy. ]

[tosa]

Yeah?

( He doesn't look busy! But what does Mutsu know? He's waiting because... he's going to explain, right? )

[ ...Why didn't that work. You were supposed to go away, Mutsu. ]

Yeah. So...

[ WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE. ]

[tosa]

( So?

He's still waiting! But when it becomes obvious that there's nothing else to really say, he shrugs and picks up the basket again, )

Got it.

( He'll give Chougi his space. For now. Maybe. )

Make sure to get that cough checked out. Yagen should be in.

[ Chougi waves and gets out of Mutsu's way. He needs to dispose of these flowers and he is absolutely not going to see Yagen about this cough (yet). He's still got hope that it'll eventually go away on its own. Maybe.

But here he is, a couple hours later, with a handkerchief full of more flowers that he's on his way to the kitchen to burn before anyone can see him. ]
