I got bored and was thinking about how the ro's would act when they're sick, because I'm sick and I need to distract my brain.
Cameron is the kind of person who doesn't realize they're sick until they're laid out on the couch, feeling like a zombie, being sick hits them hard, and they can barely stand without almost toppling over. Especially since being sick kills their appetite it makes it far worse, and often they need someone to remind them to take medicine and eat food so they don't feel worse.
Ro tries to tough it out at first, and then ends up unable to function, complaining the whole time and watching sitcoms so they can feel joy. They slather vicks vaporub on their chest like it's their one true love. They don't like having to stay home but they will, even if it makes them feel kind of useless.
Ollie doesn't get sick often, but when they do they also use a shit ton of vicks and drinks a lot of tea with copious amounts of honey, they get better after like a day and when they're sick it's never really that bad. (The lucky bastard) They typically take days off and just make up assignments for their classes whenever they get sick so they don't have to go in.
Terra loads herself up on dayquil/niquil and the only reason she takes days off is because she works in food service and doesn't want to get other people sick, she is stubborn as hell and still tries to get everything done even when she's barely functional.
