[Somewhere in struggling through his costume drama, Miharu managed to accidentally activate his phone and its connection to the community. He's hopping around on a flipper right now, trying to get a ducky inner tube off of him.]

C'mon, c'mon...

[He gets the tube off, but now there's an Olympic-style swimsuit. He sighs and starts slipping that off, only for it to be replaced with...is that Aquaman? Off it goes.]

Whoa!

[Oops. Looks like the virus, or at least Miharu's version, was an Aquaman fan. Miharu faceplants as a stiff merman tail appears on his legs.]

Ugh. Stuck. And I don't know if I want to find out what'll be next.

Looks like I'm skipping school today.

*Retasu slumps in agreement. Hey, Miharu, at least you aren't wearing a giant fish.*

At least it's Saturday so it's only a half day of school missed, right?

[oceanicbreak]

Right. But it would be better if I could bend my knees...

[aquaticrush]

I can't get through my door.

[oceanicbreak]

I really hope this is going to be one of the short viruses.

[aquaticrush]

Hopefully... I'm not sure what to do, are you?

[oceanicbreak]

Still trying to get up. You don't think a worldhop might work, would it? At least this way, we could regroup somewhere.

[aquaticrush]

Maybe! Although moving around would still be a problem.

[oceanicbreak]

Yeah. I wonder if someone can manage to help set something up to help, though. More room, people who can move better...

[aquaticrush]

Like better clothes?

[oceanicbreak]

Pretty much.

[aquaticrush]

Well, maybe.

[oceanicbreak]

Hopefully someone can help. Or the virus will be over soon.

[aquaticrush]

Maybe I can try and turn so I can get out the door... and a wheelchair might work for you if anybody has one?

[oceanicbreak]

Maybe. It's better than trying to pull myself up onto the table.

[aquaticrush]

I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

[oceanicbreak]

No, it's okay. You tried what you could. Maybe the next virus will be nicer to us.

[aquaticrush]

I'm going to try and get through the door again.

[oceanicbreak]

Okay. I managed to hold onto the coffee table, so I think I can get to the couch.

[aquaticrush]

Do you have a chair you can move around in?

[oceanicbreak]

No, my desk chair stays put. But my couch is close enough to the kitchen that if I need something, I can reach it easier.

[aquaticrush]

I hope you don't have to explain this to anybody.

[oceanicbreak]

I live alone, so it's not too much of a problem. Unless someone from school tries to check up on me...

[aquaticrush]

That's lucky. I eventually had to tell my family after years of this.

[oceanicbreak]

How did they take it?

[aquaticrush]

Worried, but I think they're better with it now. I mean, it's still not normal...

[oceanicbreak]

At least they took it better than they could have.

[aquaticrush]

Well, they had the right to be shocked or upset.

[oceanicbreak]

Yeah, but at least they didn't try to forbid you from posting--not that I think the community would have listened or anything.

[aquaticrush]

They almost did after a lot of things happened... But you're right.

[oceanicbreak]

I'd be impressed if anything did stop the community like that, though.

[aquaticrush]

I'd be scared.

[oceanicbreak]

True enough.

[ Usagi might have been left out by the virus.. but that actually means she has no idea of what's going on as she looks on the community today. She just stares at the feed with wide eyes. ]

Hey, Miharu-kun, what are you doing?! Are you going to some costume party?

Re: video;

[oceanicbreak]

No, it's a virus. And I can't get up.

[selene]

.. A.. ah, that's right, you wouldn't be able to walk with that! [ You only realised that now, Usagi... ]

But you have to get around, else you can't go to the bathroom either!

[oceanicbreak]

...I didn't even think about that.

[selene]

And you couldn't get to the fridge, so what would you eat?! And-- O-oh no, Miharu-kun, all of this sounds like bad news, horrible news!

[oceanicbreak]

Eating might be the last thing I have to worry about at this rate...

[selene]

No way, you need to worry about eating! People die if they don't eat food, you know!

[ Well, not as quickly as Usagi thinks they might, since she's such a huge eater.. ]

[oceanicbreak]

I don't think I'm going to die from this.

[selene]

Miharu-kun, don't say that so carelessly! You don't know for sure, right? A--.. and if you do, then.. [ sniff.. ] T-then what am I supposed to doooo...?!

[ Aaand she's crying. As usually.. ]

[oceanicbreak]

I-I'll be okay. It can't be too long a virus.

[selene]

I'll bring you food! I have to find a worldhop someone has first, but then I'll bring you it, promise..! I-- It'll be yummy food too, like cake!

[oceanicbreak]

Thanks. That'll help some.

[selene]

Hehe, no problem! I'm still normal, so it's only natural to help out people who aren't, right?

[oceanicbreak]

Right. Thanks.
