Who: Frau, Kevin, Teito... and maybe someone at the medical center?
When: May 17th during the outbreak
Where: Frau's apartment and maybe the medical center?
Summary: Kevin comes to pick Mimsy up and finds Frau and Teito rather ill.
Warnings: It's Frau. That explains it all.

The past few days had pretty much sucked. Killing his mentor, devouring the souls of the corrupt, falling to the influence of the scythe, the guilt from the war... All of it had piled onto Frau and driven him down. He had started off just being more tired than usual, but the exhausted had slowly progressed into physical pain, and finally to dizziness and nausea. He'd been in bed, or at least the coffin that counted as his bed, for the entire day and had no intention of moving. Simply staying awake through the illness was trying for him. The only reason why he still was awake was Teito. His apprentice was also sick and quite a bit worse off than Frau. Unfortunately there was very little Frau could actually do to help Teito.

Thankfully, Kevin had mentioned that he would be stopping by to pick up Mimsy at some point. If it was soon, maybe Frau could convince him to get Teito to a doctor. The kid really needed it. While Frau didn't want to leave Teito alone, he knew he couldn't go to a doctor. With how sick he was, someone would look over him and realize he wasn't exactly one of the living. That was something he needed to avoid. He would simply have to trust Teito to the hands of the doctors and maybe convince a friend to go and check on him from time to time as well. Frau sighed, though it came out as more of a groan, and closed his eyes, hoping Kevin would show up soon.

That was certainly a threat that would work, if threats worked at all. It did give Frau the motivation to try harder to wake up. Unfortunately those attempts only caused his eyes to flicker open briefly before they shut again. His head was pounding and the light was only making it worse.
He groaned, feeling completely miserable.

"Call docs and I kill you..."

"Ya'd rather I call the angels?" Because... Kevin was not about threats. Why should he be? Frau would do the same damned thing to him. "Here, there's a straw in it. All ya gotta do is get some o' this down ya, an' I'll leave ya alone fer a couple o' hours."

But only a couple of hours. Because Frau was going to come to hate Kevin's doctoring very, very fast. Wake up every two hours for some sort of sustenance, or he called the docs.

"Neither could help me anyway."

The price of being dead. Frau trusted Labrador to help him, but that was because Lab knew how their long dead bodies worked. They were in the same situation. Nobody else did. Besides, even if they accepted that Frau was dead and could work with that, he didn't think he even followed the norm for animated dead bodies.

He took a few sips of the liquid Kevin had brought without much more complaint though. He was somewhat thirsty. If he hadn't been so exhausted, he would have had quite a bit more to drink for sure.

Kevin teased as much liquid as he could - not nearly as much as he wanted - down Frau. "There. Now ya c'n sleep a couple hours an' I'll go make some other stuff." Gently, he laid Frau back down, and covered him with a blanket. Then, he picked up Tolly and put Tolly with him and then tucked Mimsy in down at Frau's feet. The animals could work for their treats today.

"I'm jus' gonna be in the kitchen, if'n ya need anythin'." Probably baking, but why the hell not?

"Kay. Be asleep."

Which was probably obvious since Frau was already halfway there. Just drinking a little bit had sapped the energy he had. Frau snuggled down into his coffin, happy and content. Or at least as happy as he could be when he felt so miserable.
