[Yuu is out for a walk. Or, well, more of a jog really. He expects to find some others out and about for a bit at least, in knowing he is not the only one that probably gets up earlier some mornings to try get in some exercise before it gets too hot later on in the day.

He's not necessarily anticipating running into Elda, though he is around the area this morning. But he does, and he blinks before giving her a wave as he approaches. Recognizing that particular coloured hair. Not immediately noticing that something might be wrong just yet.]

[ To be fair, what goes wrong happens pretty immediately and pretty dramatically. She was out with her parasol she'd be at for a while now, still in the line of shadows from the trees at the base of the hill her house rests at the top of. That said, when she steps out from there, the clothing and parasol blow a little bit in the early summer breeze and her forearm is exposed to the direct sunlight.

... And starts to burn.

She yelps in pain and ends up dropping the parasol as it starts to erupt in some small flames. Weelllll ?!? ]

[And just like that. Whatever greeting Yuu may have had for her dies at his lips as he hears her yelp. Hears that pain and sees the flames. Yuu himself gives a surprised yelp as he quickly then sprints over to try support her somehow. To help put out the fire?

He approaches before kind of hovering for a moment, before making to stomp on the parasol to try put it out. Then he kicks it aside to take off his hoodie to try cover her with it, to smother the flames and burn.]

What was that?

[ Whimpering, she's actually starting to sob from the pain - the flames still lick on the parasol and have ruined her sleeve. Her arm has what is at least second degree burns on parts of it, but most of it looks more superficial. It is very painful though. Curled on herself, she retreats more into the shadows of the trees, not- sure how to respond? That said... ]

What -- what was that? Are you okay?

[Because. She doesn't look it. As Yuu follows, trying to drag her out of the sun to the safety of the shade to get a better look at her arm. The fact she is sobbing from this means it must be serious. He bites his lip, gently as he ignores the parasol to focus on her. On her arm.]

Should we take you to a doctor or something?

Yes-! Y-yes, probably!

[ Is that a bad idea? It's probably a bad idea? It hurts a lot?

... She lit on fire.

The sun lit her on fire? She groans and - Okay, no, focus brain, focus. You've finished most of nursing school Elda Marker, you can do more. Shit. ]

Then let's go. I'll -- a taxi?

[Or. Something. He's not sure if this qualifies or might get him in trouble for calling an ambulance. But he has to get her somewhere she can be looked at. He fumbles, reaching for his phone in his pocket, intent to call someone to help her.]

Sure. Or ambulance. Whatever. ... I need to block out the sun. That can be controlled better in a taxi, Probably.

[ Ugh. Crap, this hurts. She can smell her flesh. This is awful. ]

You think? Okay.

[Yuu calls a taxi, telling them the street and number of the house they were in front of. If she thought that was a better option and could still get them to the hospital quick enough, that's what he'd go with. He just hopes they don't wait too long. He bites his lip, as he also checks on his phone on helping to deal with burns.]

I-- do. ... You'll need to- block the windows.

[ . . . Uuuuugh, She groans and curls up onto herself. ]

Like hanging our jackets over them or something?

[That's probably the best he can manage at the moment, with what they have on them anyway. It's something? He bites his lip when she groans, trying to keep her on her feet and keeping her burnt arm covered for the time being, unsure on treating it himself without some water to cool a burn, without specific medical knowledge himself on this sort of thing.]

I don't know, whatever you can do! If you've gotta get more than do it! Or ip the parasol-! The point is the sun's burning me now?!

[ She's.

... Yeah she's irritable through the pain here and she would normally be a borderline medical professional? But right now, she's just real out of it. ]

[Yeah, he might be kind of panicking and a little confused, as much as he is obviously trying to help, as he calls for someone to come and get them and take them to the hospital to get her looked at. To get her burns seen to. To help her somehow after encountering her like this.]

I get that point! We just have to wait in the shade for now until they come get us.

I know that!

[ she snaps, but... ]

You need to -- get something to block out the windows. In the cab.. ]

I just have my jacket. So unless you have something. Or maybe the taxi might have those window screen things?

[But as for Yuu, he doesn't specifically have anything, besides his clothes he has on him, unfortunately. Still, he's trying his best and working with what he has at the moment at least. In trying to keep her protected and all.]

Well if you don't I'll light on fire! Figure it out?!

[ She shouts this defiantly, intending to swat at him until that means she needs to move now burned muscles in her arms, which causes her to yell out in pain and cry a little. ]

I can't just make something appear out of thin air to block out the sun! I'll hold it over you or something.

[Which. Is the best he can manage. Especially with the car pulls up to pick them up. Waiting expectantly for them. Yuu hurries her to the taxi, holding up his jacket in some attempt to use it to shade her as she gets in.]

Fine!

[ But he better be good at it. Everywhere he skin is exposed to the light it starts to smoke a little, threatening to light up again. She goes at this quickly, and once in the taxi she sinks down into it, hiding herself from the light and brighting her lips. She's still cradling her particularly badly burned arm, but... ]

[He secures the shirt to the window as best he can, giving the driver the order to get them to the hospital and shoving some cash at him. Telling him to just drive and get them there quickly. Then he pulls on his seatbelt and turns to check on Elda.]

It's not too far. Just hold on.

Good! Thank you.

[ That probably sounds less sincere than one would like oops...

Ah well. ]

Th -- uh. Sure. Yeah. It's fine.

[All he was doing was arranging transport to get her to the doctor. It's not like he knows much beyond some bare basics on treating burns, if that. But still. He guesses this much is due thanks?]

[ I mean some of it was - well a lot of it was pretty flat. But she's curled up here until they get to the hospital. ... She's not thinking that far ahead though. She has no idea how she'll survive going in, let alone being inside there when sunlight burns her. Yuichiro's been drafted into helping a lot, oops. ]

[Once they get there, Yuu tries to get the driver to park as close to the entrance as possible, in the shade of the building. He retrieves his coat and uses it to keep shielding her on the way inside, before glancing around for someone to talk to about getting her seen to.]

We're here. Hopefully this won't take long before someone can check your arm.

I've got good insurance in my purse.

[ But okay!! to the main desk to announce she's here. She's going to all but shove said card at the people, and show her arm once she's inside. She needs this treated. Now. ]

Purse? Okay.

[He'll help her to the desk, getting her purse and finding her insurance details to hand over as he explains she got burnt on her arm and needs it looked at. Though he's not sure how much of a priority that might be with others around too.]
