Stupid flu (meme)
Vlad blew his nose again. Stupid flu. Being invulnerable spared you from all sorts of other injuries but he was still susceptible to illnesses. Even the flu.

This was terrible, he was feeling tired, his head was stuffed up, he was coughing, and he might've been running a fever, he wasn't sure. But he was sick of being stuck in bed so with a pillow, box of tissues, and a blanket, he'd ventured out in search of new territory.

His mission? Take over and camp out on a rec couch. Perhaps he could scare others away with germs. Who knew.

Etoile knew Vlad was under the weather. She decided to make him some soup her father always made for her. Usually, it helped her with any kind of illness she got.

She peeked out from the kitchen to see him wonder towards the rec room. She moved back in to put the soup on a tray, along with some crackers, jello and orange juice.

Etoile makes her way out of the kitchen and over into the rec room. "Hey sicky pants. I made you something.." She rests the tray down on the coffee table.

She'd find his flopped onto a couch, taking up the whole thing, blanket still in his hand that was hanging off the couch edge and the tissue box tipped over on the table. He'd been pretty exhausted and his head was pounding so he'd just let himself collapse on the rec couch.

"Hmm?" One eye peeked open to see what this was and he smiled slightly. "Hey Etoile, what you got there?" He even sounded stuffed up.

	"Soup. Juice. Jello. OJ!" She said quickly, resting the tray down finally. "Soup should help with whatever your feeling in your chest and nose. At least try to eat a little." She said, sitting down on the next chair over. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Really?" Eyes still mostly closed he rolled over and forced himself to sit up. "Wow. Thanks Etoile. I'd hug you but..." He smiled weakly and indicated his sick self. Yeah, no spreading germs. "Don't think you want to catch something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Etoile smiled lightly at him. "Eat up what you can...manly the soup. It'll help you. It's spicy, that will help chase away this flu. My Papa always makes this for me and my brother when sick. "It takes a lot for me to get...good immune system." She says as a matter of fact with a smile. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He was already in the middle of his second spoon when she mentioned that and he froze, spoon hovering right in front of his mouth. "...How spicy?" Not that he couldn't deal with some spicy, but factor in her background and their definitions of 'spicy' certainly didn't match. Well...little too late. Who knew? Maybe it'd clear something out.

	Etoile giggled lightly at Vlad's reaction. "Only enough to chase away whatever is bothering you. Stuffy nose, sore throat, congested chest...you name it." She said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"So what you're telling me is this is magic soup?" Even sick and all stuffed up he could have a sense of humour. "You could make a killing off this." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, basically." Etoile says with a nod. She always felt better the day after having this soup her father made for her. "I know right!? I should start charging.." Etoile laughed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"This is a free sample though right?" He teased. "Because you have to be up front about charging you know!" Pause for a coughing fit now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Sure why not. I'll let you be the first to have a free complimentary sample. Why? Because I adore you!" Etoile said with a smile. She laughed at Vlad, nodding her head in agreement. She frowns when he starts having a coughing fit. "Vicks Vapor rub is really good for colds." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'll add it to the long list of home remedies," he added, sounding a little hoarse from the coughing. "So what've you been up to while I've been stuck with a stupid...whatever this is, in the summer?" (Reply to this)(Parent)
