post-east mission

[leewards]

[By this point, Yamato really should not entertain anyone who taps at his window... But has he learned his lesson? Really?

Ithaqua still finds ways anyway, even if Yamato wants to insist on the door. You can't stop him.]

[dadsandals]

[ Listen, today is Ithaqua's lucky day, because Yamato will gladly entertain the tap...and he won't flinch this time! He just looks very tired. At least he has a shirt on.

He opens the window. ]

Yo. What do you need?

[leewards]

[With little preamble, Ithaqua procures two vials from his cape, and holds it out to Yamato, one as green as a leafy vegetable, the other orange brown.]

The green one is a healing potion, the other should be a tonic for a head cold, should you have it.

[dadsandals]

...Ah.

[ Somehow, he wasn't expecting this, but he'll take the vials. Honestly, he should probably be a little more cautious about drinking unknown liquids, but these both seem pretty nice. He'll chance it, starting with the tonic. ]

Thanks, Ithaqua.

[ Words he didn't think he'd ever speak, but here we are! He'll down the medicine. Is it bitter at all? If it is, he's just going to try to keep a straight face but there is a hint of it cracking regardless. ]

[leewards]

The ginseng doesn't taste all that pleasant, does it. Heheh.

[Of course he sees that expression, it almost mirrors his face when he tried that horrifically smelly root.]

[dadsandals]

It's fine, as long as it works...

[ Don't mind him. He just has a really sensitive tongue so strong tastes like these are almost nauseating, but he'll live. He's fine.

Now, for the other potion...he'll drink around a quarter of it. How does that one taste? ]

[leewards]

[Like green leafy vegetables and grass-- hence the colour.

But more than that, Ithaqua is not pleased that he takes only a little bit of it, and he waves a hand at Yamato.]

Everything! You must drink everything, there is a reason I created these portions in the first place.

[dadsandals]

Okay, okay.

[ He'll just.

Down it all, then! For Ithaqua's sake. It tastes...interesting. Probably better than the other one, but still. Once he's finished, he'll show Ithaqua the empty vials and hand them back to him. ]

Thanks... You made these yourself? Is that something you picked up here, or did you know how to make these before?

[leewards]

[One of the ears of Ithaqua's hood twitches as he takes the vials back and wipes them off before recorking them and stuffing them back into his cape.]

Potion-making is a reasonable branch of magic to be delving into if you already have a foundation on herbalism.

[Which answers nothing and everything at the same time.]

[dadsandals]

I see.

[ That answers both questions, at least. ]

... I appreciate it. How long will they take to kick in?

[leewards]

As quickly or slowly as it takes for your body to absorb medicines normally. [Which is a bit of a wait, and he's well aware of that.]

But I'm seeing how to formulate it into stimulating the body to absorb it better.

[Which may involve stimulating hunger or adding a bit more magic.]
