We're shinigami. We age differently than humans. Some have lived to be thousands of years old.

[Nope. They certainly don't act like Kor, and neither of them look like ghosts or angels so.... the only other option was human or warsfeil.

Besides, women that age are granny-ish. All seriously wrinkly, okay?]

...what's a shinigami?

[icy_heavens]

[Well they are ghosts, dummy. They just happen to still look like people.]

Death god. We protect -- [He has to stop for a deep breath after that word, because there's a ripple of nausea going through him. He manages to fight it off, though, and continue.] Protect the souls of the dead and ensure they get where they're supposed to go.

[plum_that_snaps]

[Hinamori glances up at Hitsugaya's pause.] To put it simply, we're already dead. We just keep on aging because—well, I don't really know why.

[She sneezes.]

We're not really supposed to be able to get sick, either. This is unusual for us. I didn't remember how frustrating it was...

[Death gods that protect the soul? So they were like the Seven Ghosts after all, for all that they looked different. Not that he could say any such thing - Frau's secret was something he would protect with his life.

Even so... if that were the case, it's a reason to almost believe what they're saying.]

I... can't remember ever having been ill before either. Injured and recovering, but not sick. Here. [Pushing up slowly, he started trying to catch clumsily the extra blanket folded at the foot of the beds.]

If you're cold, you should use this.

[icy_heavens]

[He's trying his best not to worry her, though the fact that he's in the hospital probably doesn't help. And there's not exactly much he can do about that. But he'll keep his coughing to a minimum, if he can, and he'll especially avoid throwing up.]

At least it still makes sense for you, being human. [He and Hinamori know more about Frau than Teito realizes, though this whole Seven Ghosts business specifically has been kept from them.]

[plum_that_snaps]

[Hinamori nods.] Yeah, although nothing about this place makes much sense.

[She takes the blanket Teito offers and wraps it around her shoulders.] Thank you.

[cracked_container]

[He nods at her thanks, then falls back rather bonelessly to the bed with his own hacking coughing fit. Once it finally passes, he curls in on his side a little more and peeks at them through a cracked eye, clearly about to fall back asleep.]

At least I can understand that this place makes no sense, but I hope you both get better soon.
